Duff Beer will be there, although with a new car, or a 35 year old car that is new to us. I'm in VA today getting the cage put in it.

a newer better replacement? or just something different?

Likely an IOE contender...Class C car, unless I missed something.

The Super Westerfield Bros. team DA Integra will be there as well. We have some new bling for the annual fall downtown parade this year so I'm looking forward to it.

A better replacement is in the works, but for now we're bringing an IOE contender that will almost certainly run in C.

Before next year the Duff car should be for sale and we'll be running a 2-door hatchback with a B20 swap, just like the rest of the Honda/Acura teams that want to go fast. I'm still undecided about what we'll take to the WRL race at COTA, but probably the current Duff car.

Well, with an official curb weight of 3400lbs (and an NHTSA as-crashed-into-a-wall weight of 4000lbs -- I have the report!), it will be somewhat of a "less than duff" car. If we can keep it at 45mph all weekend, we'll call it a success.

It has a cage now. A cage fit for a rally car, but I'll take it.

Yeah, I was there for 12 hours yesterday while they made the cage and installed it.

We are so not ready for this. I need to push this race back a week.

I really hope it's cooler at CMP this weekend. The 24 at VIR in August was absolutely brutal.

Forecast says mid-80's with scattered thunderstorms. I'm tempted to bring the Duff car. It's actually pretty quick in the rain.

We are decent in the rain too, but I still hate rain. I hate it enough that I'd rather come in 5th in the dry than actually win in the rain.
