I'm interested . . . regarding the running order, what's the difference between front, middle and back? Are helmets required and can you have a passenger ride along with you?

One advantage of running up front is that the speed is more consistent and steady. There's no bad place to run. Helmets are not required and passanger ride alongs are permitted, and every driver is encouraged to take a veteran and or their family member for a ride. This event is a blast, organized by some great people, you should register.

I'm in Signed up for I+4. I invited a Gold Star Dad who is my brother-in-law, so hopefully he can come along for the fun. We are staying at the Hampton Inn and will be driving my '17 Artic White GS M7. Looking forward to hanging out with everyone!!!
BTW, I'm registered as Lane Reams . . . see you there! I didn't specify a position to run, so fit me in where ever.

Congrats and your going to have a blast. We have a good group of guys and gals that's been running together for several years now. We try and get together for dinner at least one of the nights so once everyone gets together we will decide where to go.

Hi All! Hope everyone's holidays were great! I spoke with Mark Davis this morning and I again voiced our concerns with the challenges we had last year that we all want so hard to overcome with year. He said no worries, some have already been addressed and resolved! I need to start to get an order on who has registered already along with how many sessions so if you haven't yet posted please PM me or post. I hope everyone who did register already remembered to put their Club Affiliation as www.corvetteforum.com or indicated you wished to run with the corvetteforum group. If you did not please PM me so that I can pass it along to Mark to get you updated!
Thanks!
Jeff
Thanks!

Jeff I know for sure Keith bought 3 sessions and is staying at the Hampton. You know he always loves to run the middle somewhere. I'm in contact with Mark and Cal so I'll let you know something soon.

Thanks, I am glad to help! I love this event! Yep its still very early and we are already looking at possibly making a second group. That's excellent. I have been communicating with Mark Davis and he has been very receptive in all our concerns. He has a meeting this thursday with the board and Talladega. He said he would touch base with me shortly after that, so soon as I know more information I will share it with you all.
