Course looks good, but tight. That must be why we aren't to expect 30 sec runs. tight  Really ?? I see a couple of tight sections but much more open than anything ,,,,that is if you set up properly ...I was actually going to question the speed in a couple areas for a lot that small  |

Hehe! I went to Google Earth and they have an updated satellite view of Metrolina from what I have been using. And the dimensions are slightly different, so I needed to tweak it a smidge. It is almost the same, flipped 3 cones and slowed the middle up so I can have enough space for a corner capt. |

Is the course going to be more-or-less the same for the novice school?

Is the course going to be more-or-less the same for the novice school? It will be similar, but will drive completely different. With a quite a few cones being moved to change the flow. |

any chance of annual tech sticker being available this weekend ? I cut them the other night and left them with AJ to go in the trailer. I believe Marske & Kuhn are doing annual tech at the novice school for anyone that shows and again at the Sunday event. |

Marske posted saying that annuals will be available. for one whole dollar. |

Assuming the weather doesn't change drastically I'll be coming out to this one.
Much needed seat-time!

They barely last the day. The annual stickers last for a year on the car in the elements. |

Come on Walt, you know those personalized annual tech stickers cost far more than those crappy sheet-stickers that we use for regular events. Tell you what, if you really can't afford the $1 for the annual tech sticker, I'll cover yours this year. But don't expect any favors next year.  |

Do y'all plan on doing live timing? My focus this morning is on rebuilding one of the timing light stands that got broken in half yesterday, so I doubt I'm going to have much time to concentrate on live timing. I'll certainly try to get it up and running though. |

Another great day with the CCR-SCCA. I got over 1000 pics today, developing them right now. Every single car was captured in multiple states of the driving. Each of you will be very pleased I think  Hope to have them up by tonight. |
