One mouth to feed and i need tires. 

It will be fun to play with a different group.

[Bruce Wilson]

Awesome, Jeff!

 

Mark, you make me wanna go racing again

National or Regional for Group 11?  I just sent an e-mail to Karen to move me from National SM to Regional SM.  When entering I just picked the first SM class I found not paying attention that it was the National.  So be sure you are running the "event" you really want to be in.  Regional and National will all be on track at the same time, so it won't make a difference as to who get to play with.

Thanks for initiating this Bruce. I wish you'd race with us!

I'm bringing my 28' enclosed trailer and need space for two race cars. Probably just two fooders.

Thanks

When looking at the entries it looks to me like part of the regional/national issue is the attempt to gain a trophy, rather than licensing.  Don't really care personally, just like racing.

 

Bruce, do you have the map yet?  I am pulling in for test and tune Thursday and don't want to park in the wrong place.  That monster is not very easy to move, especially when everyone comes in at once.

Hey Terrell, I'll be there Thursday morning to run the test day as well.  Bruce told me today he & Red will be out there directing traffic.  We should have paddock assignments before then.  I should be there around 7am.

[Terrell Garrett]

So are you proposing that we work together toward better finishes for both of us?  Maybe a little joint practice on Thursday?

[BrianPDX]

shhhhh... Yes!  Although I think you're faster than me now, so I'm hoping to learn something.  Haven't been in the car since Sept.

This race cannot happen soon enough!  See you all soon!

Confused on run groups.  There are two Group 1's: one for 13-R-2590-S and then for 13-R-2592-S.  Then there's 13-R-2591-S/Group 11 which is the regional points group.  The schedule shows qualifying for the Festival Race on Friday but it only lists Group 1.  Which group 1?  

[Bruce Wilson]

Off work and checked out for the weekend...  I'm pumped and I'm not even racing!!!

 

Weather looks good.  Really glad those chance of showers moved off to Monday!

 

No paddock map, you'll just have to be surprised when you get there.

 

Red, Weidspeed and I will be there to escort you to your reserved space. 

 

Hoping I can sneak out for a lap or two tomorrow!  I'll be giving VIP rides in the pace car, but I feel the need to get close and personal to somebody's bumper

Are non SM people invited to the BBQ?

Of course Derrick.

I managed to NOT work this weekend and will be racing even though it turns out registration closed today.  Is the paddock on the infield or outfield this year?  I heard it's by the food stand but there's the moto-x cafe and that other one by the drag strip entrance.  If I show up and wait in a long line, I'd rather wait in the right line.

[BrianPDX]

Keith, South Paddock (Outside the track).  Looking forward to seeing everyone.  Bruce, I'd be happy to let you run a few laps in my car.

[Bruce Wilson]

thx Brian

 

Looks like we're pushing 30 Entries! 

 

SM will be the biggest field once a few Vintage cars drop out

 

All, please text me at 503-704-7718 when you have a good estimate on your arrival times.

[Kyle Keenan]

Bruce, i'd be happy to give you a bump draft

[Bruce Wilson]

You have to catch me first

[Kyle Freiheit]

Updates for us unlucky shlubs that aren't racing!

[Bruce Wilson]

Only qualifying so far. 

 

Will is showing the way in both sessions. 

If the temps don't rise, we may see the track record broken this weekend. 

Who will win the regional?  Hint, very few signed up for just regional

The real fun starts tomorrow.
