CMC2 - E1
CMC - E2

[rleng1]

Thanks Mike and appreciate the effort.
Will garages only be offered on Fridays?
Rookie eyes :shock:

[MikeP99Z]

It's not a typo. I realize that the weekend garage thing is missing, I don't have the fee for it at the moment, and will add it when I find out.

Hence - preliminary

[GlennCMC70]

Generally TWS will allow your Friday Garage Fee to cover the weekend.
They will also try and give you the place you will be in for the whole weekend so you dont have to move.

I've always paid the $30 to NASA. If we are able to pay the $25 on Friday that is great. Please keep us posted, thanks.

[kbrewmr2]

last year they had me on a different garage on Friday than I did for the weekend, but luckily the guy that had my spot for the weekend was cool with letting me stay there and taking the other spot. It's all Misty's fault I'm sure :P :wink:

[MikeP99Z]

Do not twist what is going on with the garages. There is a fee to NASA for the garage weekend, separate from Friday.

Will we have the combo AI(X)/CMC/2 mega party garage again?

Can I pit there this year?

Mike,

Thanks for all your efforts on getting us the 4th race and lower fee!!! It is very much appreciated.
