Well, I don't want poor Ian to start complaining to Ruck that no one has started a thread yet on the next GLDiv race weekend.......
(nothing like a two month summer break).
Looks like entry forms are arriving in the mail, but here's the on-line version:

ITA and ITB in Group 1.
Interesting mix in Group 3 for the ITS/ITC guys... :blink:
Looks like I'll be making my first trip up Nort' to the South Haven area.
I plan on being even slower than normal as I learn the joint.
Gonna try out some new 15" Kooks.

Slight chance I'll be there. Depends if I have the car ready to go and if I feel I need some more track time before the IT Fest. I haven't been to Gingerman since '01 and have never had the Integra there, so it could be fun.
 
I won't be there. I hope that I'll have started fixing the car by then. Haven't started yet. Lots of good thinkings been done though. :birra:
 
I think we will both be there...

I will at least race one of the days (probably both) and my dad will be there both days. I might just race on Sunday on the way back from Chicago...
 
Damn, and here I thought I'd maybe have a shot at that record. :P

THAT record was never even set!!! The Gingerman ITA record is something like 1:34.4xx and was set by Rick Deshaw (or at least in his car) back in 1994 or 1996. I think it was S. Zellner from King was telling me that Rick said his car never got within 2 seconds of that time, but he wasn't going to argue it!

That being said, we've broken the record many times in practice, but haven't been to a race there in years, so I think one of my dad's main goals for the year is to go and get that record :)

Hopefully you do show up, its a fun, safe track and we could judge ourselves before the IT Fest (make sure we're ready!)

work on the car coming along nicely + yes, I need more track time = entry going in the mail
 
Would you hate me if I said I'm considering going Steve? But that depends on me actually getting some things finished. When's the rig leaving Kevin?
 
Have fun guys, and keep those cars in One piece!

I just looked over the supps: A price of $265 looks 'cheap'. But add in $10.00 per person (minus driver) to the Sat. night Party + $5.00 per person/per night to camp... Looks like it would be a $295.00 - $325.00 'entry' - for Gingerman! Should have just kept the race at Mid-Ohio and charged $300.00 - $310.00... Just my .02¢

For the record: I do hope there is a great turnout and that everyone has a blast!

Heck no, come on up, I haven't had a chance to see you break or blow anything up yet this season.
:023:

I even have a set of Avon Tech R's that even Downing wouldn't want to use that I may throw on at some point in the weekend.... :eclipsee_steering:

Probably just whenever we can both get home from work on Friday. Gingerman really isn't much further than getting to Grattan. That is, if I remember correctly - it's been six years since I've been there! :blink:

Steve, I talked with Bob and Joey last weekend, and they're both going, so you've moved back three spots. :P
 
The weather looks great for this weekend, at least for now. I'm getting excited to drive at a track I haven't been to in five years. Still got some work to do on the cars before this weekend, but we should be good to go. :023:
 
Yep, everybody make sure to bring the rain tires to keep the slight chance to T-storms away for Saturday!

Question about camping - are you allowed to camp (as in sleep in a tent) in the paddock next to your rig or do you have to go to the campground? Anyone know?

I haven't been there in a couple years, but paddock camping was fine back then.
