The first day of racing is Saturday March 2nd, and the first Wednesday is March 6th. If all goes well, stop in at the staging lanes and besides directing you to the right lane, I will give you a 2002 Cartek Corvette Challenge schedule. :D

On Wed?? I'll be there! :) Look for a Red '92 with Minnesota plates!! (BTW: I am assuming there are forms and such that I have to fill out - where do I do this?)

Dennis,

Do you know if they repaired the "Right Lane Clock". I'd heard a number of people ran faster e.t.& m.p.h.(including yours truly) in the left compared to the right.

Not too sure if I'll make it down seeing Saturday is F1's debut race of 2002 in Melbourne Australia.

Mark LT1, you'll be hooked for sure. And one more "RED" Car :D makes life that much easier on John Panuzzo(inside joke we'll have to tell you about). Hope to see you there.

Just so long as you arent too disappointed in the "redness" of my car. Clear coat was almost gone when I got it (though everything else on the car was in GREAT condition.. I dont really understand why the paint was so bad..), and now the paint is starting to look pretty bad.. (hope to save up enough for re-painting this summer). Cant wait to give her a run.. BTW: can you rent helmets at the track?? I dont have one yet, and wanted to give it a try before investing any more into this car.. :)

Hehe.. for a few reasons-

1) Only 11k original miles.. that car is pretty much a garage queen..
2) Original Tires.. dont think it could take any fast passes
3) The most important one- its in my Dads garage in Minnesota right now! :)
