Hopefully you guys have already picked the event name and have the dash plaques ordered.

I can make something tonight if that'll work. I just need the specs (height v. width ratio, etc).

Yes my sponsor provided artwork.

49 preregistered so far, but we can certainly use more entrants. Round up the usual suspects! Invite your friends and coworkers!

Glad to see my FS buddies have returned.

Someone needs to give Brice a run for his magnet.

Up to 59 registered Entrants now.... I pushed Registration closure on MSR from 5pm to midnight. http://msreg.com/THSCC2014POINTS4

All the best,

Here is a rough Course Map for tomorrow's event!

NOT complaining or criticizing (you guys are doing the work - and I thank you for it!)

Who "likes" pin/pivot turns, especially greater than 180 degree versions? They are never used at National events.

Just curious since I take advantage of every opportunity to learn/practice/test and even pin turns teach me something valuable. Plus my automatic does a really good job of manual 1-2 and 2-1 shifts. :lol:

Thanks!

Dick

FYI, I just got an automated email via MotorsportReg saying that I'm getting the email because I'm pre-registered for this event.

But I'm not.

Just FYI. Wonder if everyone got it????

Yeah I sent out another blast, didn't limit the scope correctly.

Lots of time to lose or gain going in or coming out.... I suppose.

I didn't get the first one but got what appears to be the second email BUT I'm registered and have been for days.

Darn computers and application software.

I just got the earlier information email for pre-registered folks so that worked CORRECTLY even though the time was 4:10 versus about 4:35 or the "wrong" message.

Tell your national buddies to show up and I'll whip their asses.

The first pivot is to force precision braking, the second driven properly is a continually decreasing radius less so a pivot. It's placed at the end of the run to enforce patience and technique.

Rob - Thanks for the explanation. FYI I think they way it works is the challengers go to the champs :-)

Lots of spots open in Lincoln :-)
