Hallett 2014 Summer Shootout Smack Talk!

Would love to go but its just not in the stars for me this year. I'm hoping next year though.

All,
Remember the race format is different for the Hallett Summer Shootout.

Saturday
Practice
Qual
R1: 20-25 min, Standing start with grid based on qual.
R2: 20-25 min, Rolling start with inverted grid based on R1 finish

Sunday
R3: 20-25 min, Rolling start with inverted grid based on R2 finish
R4: 45 min, Championship race, standing start with grid based on points accrued during R1 thru R3.

Remember the points accrual. ALL three races are important. More times than not, the pole for the Championship wasn't the 1st place car (unless your last name is Patterson).

I'm not sure what the timing is for the first three races, but they will either be 20 or 25 minute races.

If you are typically close on weight during the 20-25 minute races, please plan accordingly with extra fuel/ballast. Being underweight is a compliance DQ and is not droppable (ask me how I know...)

I'll be there hoping to lead the CMC-2 field...you know, the ones still on RA1s

engine diagnosis/fix?

It is a funny story.

They don't call him 'Plugwire' for nothing.

[Rob Liebbe]

They don't call him 'Plugwire' for nothing.

And they don't call you "Inspector Injector" for nothing Randy.

[GlennCMC70]

Plug Wires (as in more than 1).

[blk96gt]

So...his plug wires were off one deal?

[marshall_mosty]

For Randy and Rob, "one deal off" can be huge. Must be a GM thing.
