[Blake]

I think I'm goin to start playin with the non boost set in prep for the race..Ya I got my membership for 27 and change cdn,well I hope it's the right membership atleast lol seems a bit cheaper than I was expecting...

Jarrod, what class(es) are you planning on running?

Blake

17.5 12th and wgt

Ok cool.  FYI, 12th 13.5 Boosted is plenty driveable on their big track.  Feels like 17.5 Boosted on our track.

Hi guys,


Yes, a big race can be expensive.  However, this race will be the cheapest opportunity you will EVER get.  Here is my rough math for a per person cost:

PER PERSON (assuming four people in a car)
----------------
Race entry (2x classes) = $170
ROAR Membership = $27
Hotel (4x nights) = $120
Gas = $40
Ferries = $50
Food = $120

TOTAL = $527 USD

It's an expensive prospect, but you'd pay more than that in flights alone for any other race.  Not trying to pressure anyone into coming...!

[Gorden]

I found this tonight on race tech about the tires....

Gorden

The controller tires are for all TC Classes: Jaco Blues must be purchased at track $25.00 per set... WGT: CRC Lilac Tires... must be purchased at track: $26.00 per set.....

you can practice on any tires but must have the registered set's through Tech for the quals and mains.....

we would also like to welcome TOP USA as a class sponsor for the event... Thanks again to Michale and EJ for their support of our event.....

I am going but haven't had time to enter yet.

[Shawn68z]

Yeah I wont be going, no matter what happens.  The wife is getting cranky because I basicly havent been around much since that June.    The only day off is saturday, and I spend most of that time racing.
