30 minutes .... No one says you HAVE to stay out for all 30 minutes
Three questions. Will the Cobra R qualifying session be combined with the AV8 qualifying like last year?Cobra-R said:I just finished the schedules, four 30 minute sessions on saturday for open trackers.
One other cool thing, Cobra R racers will have thier own qualifying session.

Second, can you post (or Email me) the schedule somewhere. Dan S is not going to be there and since I registered through AV8, I doubt they will send anything out. I also don't expect an Email from SCMC since I did not register through them. BTW, I AM an SCMC member as well (have been for the past 3 years) in case you want to include that on the participants list.
Last, any word from the track yet on a Friday night session???
Thanks Buddy!:beer:
Flying Fred said:Thanks Brian! A whole 30 minute qualifying session for just 6 or 7 cars? I know we agreed on a split start from the AV8 group for the race, but it would seem we could all qualify together?:shrug:
I appreciate your trying to attach the schedule. Hopefully you can get it posted! Good luck calling the track. I'm surprised the manager is slow to respond. I contacted her in July about dropping my trailer off early for Mark's SVTOA event and she responded promptly.
I'm not necessarily against it - in fact I'm pretty neutral about it. I was commenting more that it seems to waste track time if you have a handful of cars do AV8 qualifying, then a separate handful do the R qualifying. Then again the "crowd"??? may enjoy seeing the Rs separate. I'm fine leaving it as is - unless you think we should poll the R guys again.Cobra-R said:Let Dan know how you feel, He did it because he had the time at the end of the day and thought it would be fun for the R people. I am sure he would change it if you were against it. (the qualifying sessions are 20 min each)

Glad to hear it's done Joe. Doug was going to call HP the other day, but was overwhelmed at work. What did they do about that header gasket?JoeJ said:Guys,
I am out in Denver Colorado visiting my son Scott. I got a call from Houston Performance today and they said the car was ready. They got a little over 400 HP on the dyno. I will not have time to break it in before I leave for Gingerman next Thursday but hopefully everything will be ok. I am dropping it off on Tuesday at Kenny Bumbera to have the alignment checked.
Wayne Manor is coming up with me. He will be available to help instruct if needed. He is one great driver and instructor.
Sure looking forward to seeing everyone. We should have a great time on the track.
I'm fine with it based on what you said, I think the crowd will enjoy it....back when we had the cobra R gang all together at mark's july gingerman event, we had an all-cobra R (and a few seasoned open trackers) together in a cobra R run group....those were great runs, and made for some really neat photos with all of the R's on track together....what other arrangement do you think would work?Flying Fred said:I'm not necessarily against it - in fact I'm pretty neutral about it.

Biran tried to attach the schedule but was not successful. He Emailed it to me, so I will send it to you. In fact, I will send Bruce a copy as well. As co-moderator, maybe he can get it posted for us.NJ2000R said:is the schedule posted anywhere? I looked on av8ss but didnt find it....

Flying Fred said:I really don't want to bust my butt trying to get there early on Friday to find out we can't run. Thanks.
Cobra-R said:I have no idea, fred. I have emailed and phoned her again. I am pretty sure we are ok, but I just want to hear it from her mouth.
