Default May 19th @ E Town

Are they (E Town) having the "Top 16" from the CC race that night ??

I just want to plan for it if I'll be racing on the 19th of this month..

Also could someone please make up a ladder (even with no names) just so I can see who would be on my side of the ladder

(I'll admit it, I really don't want to race Ralph again) ...


Thanks from the old man...

It's also on the Corvette Challenge website (a little '16' next to the date/time).

Yes, LOTS AND LOTS of spectators LOL, certainly the biggest crowd (last summer at the 'Night of Thrills' and 'Summer Spectacular' events) that I've ever made a pass in front of that's for sure.
