Re: Arpil 3rd Heads-Up BRING IT!!!! (Pete K)
it really depends on whether all the guys we know of show up. If they all do, the bump could be a high 10. If they don't it could be a low 11.
Last year when we did 4 cars only, we had one race where the 4th guy was 11.6 but we did one race with 8 cars as a test and the bump was 10.89

10.89! If I came, It'd be like me bringing a knife to a machine gun fight. Let us slow pokes know who won.

I just noticed that this is the same day as the EFI race. This alone makes for a great day. The Quick 8 will be a nice bonus. I'll be there!

Should be very informative! Bring your notebook and be prepared to write fast. He puts out a lot of great information. Also show up early and bring your car - seek him out over by the coffee pot and ask if he would like to use your C4 for a demonstrator. I did this at his Bloomington Gold class last year and he fixed a few things on my 87 for free! He also gave us lots of good tips and pointed them out on my car. I still have some of these fix-up items on my lengthy to-do list!
