WOW!!! A full weekends schedule and the enduro all stuffed together, your awesome!

I hate to ask for more, but:
Can we add a group 8 practice to the end of the day on Saturday? It would be great to be able to shake down the cars before the qual. on Sunday.
I want to make sure I don't destroy Marshall's trans before the race. ops:

THUNDER!
On the road home by noon Sun.
Awesome.

yep, a group 8 15 minute end of day session would be nice for co-drivers looking for a little seat time to see if the seat and stuff is right for them. some of these guys are new to these cars and sat night would allow for some adjustment time to seats and such.

[Wirtz]

Nice job guys. I was kind of wondering how this could work out, but on paper at least it looks good.

Should be a great weekend of racing. I'm ready to go right now!

Cool! I like running with you guys!

I was just looking at options for rigging hand controls on a 5-speed earlier today.... Everyone I know is going CMC.

Hey question from a Newb in HPDE who's on a budget... are the prices going to change since there are only 6-20min sessions instead of 8?
