Tech starts at 0800 and show registration at 0900, so we'll get through tech 1st and get classed(gonna switch to compete vs test & tune on arrival for max runs), then worry about staging for the show.

I just realized that I might run under 14.00 and don't own a helmet. Anyone know if we can rent one there or something?

Thanks guys! Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if I didn't run under a 14, lol. I'm still a newbie to racing, and I'll be running with my 20's and new audio setup in the trunk.

I'm sure you can get under 14.

I think I may enter the show too just to keep everyone parked together, even though my car looks damn near stock

Guys, make sure you check their website the morning of event... there is rain in the forecast and there are times when the track cancels even when it doesn't rain (they call off staff if there's a strong chance of rain)..

I've been there with a group of ppl and 30lbs of meat for BBQ - no rain and the event was cancelled... not trying to jinx this - just a suggestion
