Default No DA%# Excuses III Fall Classic At MIR

Robz and I will be hosting a rental at MIR on Friday, 11/14/14. (The rain date has yet to be determined. Jason also told me that this is the rain date for their big Import vs. Domestic race, so we could get bumped.) This may be your chance to run a PB at a great facility. (A couple records were set!) Historically, weather is very good this time of year and the track prep is always outstanding. Rob and I will be available to assist anyone who would like some help. Details are to follow.

Cost will be directly related to head count and we will need your deposit to secure your spot.

This will be an exclusive private rental of the track having both lanes.

Online Registration Now Closed

Final total cost is $143.45 per person. You can subtract your net deposit from this to get your balance. PLEASE MAKE SURE TO SEND ENOUGH MONEY TO COVER PAYPAL FEES IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO SEND AS A GIFT.
Most will owe a balance of $43.45. It's possible someone will owe a little more due to PayPal fees.


PLEASE READ ALL INFORMATION FIRST. PLEASE READ DAILY FOR UPDATES.
1. To elaborate on the above, the total cost will dependent upon the amount of people. To rent both lanes exclusively, MIR charges $2,400 for up to the first 24 cars. Additional cars are $100/car.
Track prep is $0.50/LF beyond the first 60'. We like to have the entire track sprayed for added safety.
For example:
10 cars = $2400 + 2{(1,320-60) x $0.50} = $3,660 or $366.00/person.
15 cars = $2400 + 2{(1,320-60) x $0.50} = $3,660 or $244.00/person.
20 cars = $2400 + 2{(1,320-60) x $0.50} = $3,660 or $183.00/person.
24 cars = $2400 + 2{(1,320-60) x $0.50} = $3,660 or $152.50/person.
30 cars = $2400 + 2{(1,320-60) x $0.50} + (30-24) x $100 = $4,260 or $142.00/person.

2. This is a DR or Slick Only event. NO EXCEPTIONS.

3. A $100 deposit per person is required in cash, check or PayPal. If there are associated charges with the PayPal transaction, these will be added to your total amount due.
PLEASE MAKE SURE TO SEND ENOUGH MONEY TO COVER PAYPAL FEES IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO SEND AS A GIFT.
Deposits will be non-refundable unless cancelled by MIR due to inclement weather or we get bumped. Let me know how you wish to pay and I'll forward you my info via PM.

4. If you cannot make the event, please find someone to take your place; however, they must abide by these rules. In addition, it is at the sole discretion of robz and myself who can attend this event as a driver, spectator or a person in any other capacity.

5. All balances are due no later than 11/1.

6. Registration cut-off will be dictated by logistics. No warning will be given.

7. There will be a meeting and a sign-in the morning of the event. Please arrive early.

8. More to come.

Norm- You need to be there. It would not be the same without you . You always provide those words of encouragement such as "If you keep eating, you'll be running 10.2s." I needed to have the correct caloric intake for the following day of racing as I did not wish to pass out on the starting line. I also stated that "If the car runs a 10.2, I would burn it to the ground." Thanks again for the motivation.

That's ridiculous Chris. There is no reason that you should have to wait that long. We hope to see you.

Nothing big...just went with a manual boost controler to have more control over boost as last time I couldn't go over 11lbs. Hoping to do better then my PB 9.72 last time. Also, installed a new big break kit to stop a little better


Can't wait to see everyone and hope the weather is good.
