******Payment Information Update******

okay guys, it looks like the number of participants is leveling off. The payment will be $200 + $6 (PayPal fees) for a total of $206 per car

I just finished setting up the track payment account again. It's the same one as the one we used for our last event. Please send payment via PayPal to:

jsunner@hotmail.com

Please don't forget to include the following information:

1) Username (and which forum you belong to if not this one).
2) Car Make/Model/Mods you're going to use at the track.
3) Contact information in case of last minute updates (only if I don't have it already).

I will be meeting with the owner on November 16th. So, payment (and a list of participants) must be submitted no later than November 15th not before November 9th as previously stated in the first post. Sorry, the first post was written when the racing date was set to November 14th.

Thanks and looking forward to seeing everybody there

Still on the fence. Would rather keep driving to Sac for negative DA that time of the year. Almanac puts it around -380 DA.

Thanks Mo for setting this up again.

If it is similar to the current weather patterns, it is warmer between noon and 9pm, compared to early morning temps. These times on the chart are EDT, so take away 3hrs for California time.

Very tempting!

Is there a deadline as to when we need to sign up? Is there a cap on the # of cars?

Yeah no fee for payments marked as personal. I think they have an option to select the reason why its "personal" one of them is "Rent payment" or something like that. Thats kinda what this is.. anyway its only $6

It's free only up to $1,000. Once you send more than that. The fee kicks in.

btw...I will be at Famoso too. Let's see what an E55K shortblock with upgraded timing chain, bearings, crank shaft and oversized valves and an 82MM TB and a enlarged SC intake, dual python intakes and a 109 race map will do at the drags.

Thanks for the info.

Nice, can't wait to see what you do. How much boost are you running? Should be very fast.

Edit: are you sure he upgraded those engine pieces or just replaced them? Factory crank is forged

EDIT: never mind, just read about the $1,000 limit.

Last chance to sign-up will be on or before the 14th and last time to submit payment will be on November 15th. After that date, I will take the payment account offline and no more payment will be accepted. I will have to meet with track owner soon after to give him the final list of participants and approximate amount of spectators, so he can allocate the number of employees accordingly. Again, the track is normally closed this time of year, and this is a special case, so they just have to adapt based on the circumstances and conditions.

Hope to see you there.
