Our season opens early this year with our first race of the season at WSIR in just two weeks!!

As always, the earlier 20 cars are registered, the better the chance that we will have our own group and mix things up if we choose. Soo if you plan on coming out, please register here by the end of this week!

Who's in?? [yep]

Burned a valve at Cal Speedway, not sure I'll have it back together by then. Definitely will be there for the March event.

Angela, do you know if there will be a tire guy that can sell and mount Toyos on site?

Rob, Rick Romo Racing Tires is located right near grid. They are usually open Fridays and weekends, but you might want to check in with them. Their number is (661) 256-8974.

I would love to go but it's Super Bowl weekend and two guys from my office will be in Miami dealing with tickets so I will probably have to work Friday and Saturday, so I will have to skip this one and make The March Cal Speedway race my first race of the year... Looking forward to it!

I was planning on it but I rolled my ankle in a volleyball tourney this past weekend. 3 weeks in a boot. With the boot on, it makes pressing the gas and brake real exciting. All on or all off. But I haven't given up hope yet! The racing bug has got me pretty bad!

To encourage early sign up, how about we have a drawing for those who signed up X days in advance for an entry discount to the next event...?

I've had some things arise unexpectedly in the offseason which might keep me from making our first race. I apologize if I am not able to run w everyone but I am going to try my best to make it happen.

It's not so much a stick to run from, it's the other classes! [duck]

We don't have to sign up early, but as we know, it needs to make sense for Ryan to create a SM run group. Registering before the schedule is made helps guarantee that.

Great timing. As some of you might have read in an email yesterday, the cost to register will increase $25 the Friday before an event. This will start with the March event at ACS. Still a great value for the money.

Rick does not sell Toyos (or answer his phone much). Goodyear and Hoosier only.

Any idea if there will be a tire trailer on site that can sell Toyos?

They used to have some sets, but called them this AM and no Toyos now. No tire trailer scheduled to be out there, so you might want to make other arrangements Rob.

I'm all signed up, we should have the schedule by Wednesday. [Smile]

That's right gang, Ryan is allowing us to swing our own group w just 15 cars. Take advantage of the amazing $49 PTE supersize option and it's looking to be a great weekend!
