MSR Houston - January - Time to sign up!

[ShadowBolt]

I know of 4 more cmc cars that should be there that aren't signed up. So entries should be about even. For Sunday someone may need to volunteer to run ai to get them toyo bucks.

You are expecting that many AI cars to drop out?

Yea, not so much. There were only two events in '03 with an AI car and I was in half of them (no CMC). I ran all of the events in '04. You also forgot Richard Dickey, Mike Patterson, David Donnovan, David Armstrong, Chris Lyons, etc. There were 14 AI points scorers in '04 and only 4 in CMC...

Sorry Richard... I was going by memory...

All,
Something I just noticed in the welcome letter... Annuals are $10 this year, and $20 if you need a logbook and annual.

Got the motor built yesterday and it is in the car with transmissions. Tonight still need to connect exhaust, d-shaft, wiring, hoses, etc. I also need to find a timing cover bolt. I was wondering how I could have lost one but just realized it was probablly attached to the section of timing cover that blew out and is at the bottom of the bowl at ECR.
If by tonight it holds all fluids and runs, then I should be in good shape.

BTW, sorry about the flu Bryan. I was only sick for 1 day so I assume you are back to feeling good.

Is this also if you had the inspection done elsewhere?! Ross, any input?

This has been this way for the last two years. CMC has been able to bypass this in the past because Glenn or others were doing tech inspections for everyone. They no longer give stickers to anyone but me. Matt - Tech inspections done at another shop will only be charged if they need and logbook. The charge is an effort to get people to get Tech inspections before getting to the track and to cover misc costs like Toyo stickers etc. If anyone saved welcome letters from the past it is in there as well.

Cool. No change from what I am telling folks that I've been working with. Thanks!

Any indication if there will be an official available to perform annuals on CMC cars in our pit area? It has been REALLY nice to not have to sit in that line for hours. I know Glenn isn't coming, so who else might be able to do it? Might have to buy Matt lunch :-p

Yeah, thanks. Your just lucky the rest of the family didn't get it or hasn't yet. Kind of like revenge-payback maybe served with a cold and special keystone light.
