MIR Rental 12/4/15

I have both lanes reserved at MIR (Maryland International Raceway) on Friday December 4th. One lane will be strictly for drag radial/slick tire cars and the other lane is for everyone. Cost is the usual $100/car (cash at the gates) and the rental is from 9AM until 5PM (Track isn't usually ready until 10AM). If you would like to pitch in for extra track prep let me know and I can send you my paypal address so I know in advance how far to have the extra prep (if we get enough cars MIR covers the cost of prep to the 330'). Fingers crossed for great DA and records. Who's in?

It seems that word has gotten out about the rental and some Racecars and No Time cars were planning on going. This is a STREET CAR event

As you, and a few others already know, I had to bail out last minute with car on trailer and ready to make the 5 hour haul! My stomach just wouldn't cooperate with me (my buddy recommended bringing a paint bucket...lol) which kept me sleepless and just couldn't do the drive with no sleep and a trigger happy rectum! lol...My fiance' (13 years...lol) Dad had a stroke yesterday afternoon as well so that didn't help matters either but she urged me to go and not to worry saying that there was nothing I can do here...that was cool of her! Anyway, good luck to all, be safe and I will get to the next one and meet all of you sooner or later.
