Best of luck to those THSCC'ers making the pilgrimage to South GA this weekend:

(sorry if I left out someone)
Matt McGrain
Kraig Klippel
Zach Hill
Aaron DeLong
Gwen Bakke
Jackie Branscomb (familial ties FTW!)
Jeff Eng (It's OK if he's in NCR too)

And the Triad folks as well (Feinberg, Spratte et al)

Bring some wood back to NC!

Hopefully it will be on Sololive or UStream...anyone know?

Post back if you find a link to live scoring. Jackie is driving Ash's 996 40th in A-stock on BFG R1-S tires. I'm not sure she's very comfortable driving that car...at all. :? :) She's having a "tough" day at work I suppose prior to leaving (i.e. she had to go to the proving grounds for track work today apparently).

Thanks Steve! Things are just now kicking off with heat one and the course looks fun. Seven practice runs and seven coursewalks should do the trick.

From the Evo FB page:

Here's the Dixie Shootout course driven by Brian Harmer in a Mazda Miata

Matt,

How did you get 7 practice runs? That sounds really nice!

Wow...seven practice runs should get you dialed in pretty well!

Good luck all!

I just bought 6 and Zach gave me his last ticket but I definitely needed it.

The test course was a fun little 25 second out & back to get a feel for the car and surface.

Good luck in the Shootout!

Oh boo hoo Jackie, 'having' to go to track at work always sucks :-) .
