I'm hoping to make a few more suspension changes before the next track event, and need to get some seat time with them.
Would it be OK (provided the entries aren't too full) to double-enter as long as I pay for 2 entries, work 2 run groups, and take DNF's for my second sets of runs? If the run groups are mixed the wrong way, I'd be willing to have all my runs pre-DNF'd just to get the seat time.

It just opens a can of worms that I'd rather keep shut.

Kendt,
I guess you'll just have to see if your identical twin brother Brendt can come along and give you some feedback as well on how the car is behaving.

:D

No. You'll need an Aar0n Checker. . . .

No doubt. When I first read the title, I thought of Aaron.

Wait, that doesn't sound right! :shock:

To clarify, when I first read the title, I wondered what Aaron might think when he read the title. Much better. I think...

does this mean there for sure will be no fun runs?

Sorry, I asked this question in the other thread but it got sidetracked to tech inspection discussions and Rodney being called Randy. I'll ask it again here I suppose, what happens if attendance is still as sparse as it appears it will be (68 entries so far), 5 runs? 4 runs+fun runs? Go home at 2:30 (or whenever we happen to finish)? Just wondering. I'm also hoping for seat time (but not desperately enough to put in two entries).
