Tracking will definitely punish your car more then the quick drag run or street run.

True. In fact mine is still broken to this day with the number one bearing out. I still think it wasn't age with only 66k miles on the whole car but due to the oil I was running 10w30. Way too thin. If I get her up and running for this I will be sure to use something like 20w50.

I'm in. This one will be close enough to make. I'm down for the drag strip and the road course.

Who is designing the oil pans for this years road racing segment? (too soon?

Joe, I go to Savannah often and both my uncle and then my aunt live with in 10 minutes of Roebling Rd.

I can swing down there to do any finalizing that needs to be done in person if needed.

I'll be there for this one since it is home and would be nice to drive Roebling as my first track.. might even get my cousin out there.

sounds like a lot of fun...a little too far for me though. The 800 mile trip to OH for 2012 was about the farthest I'm willing to drive. But never know, a year is a decent amount of time.
