Re: MAP Proving Grounds 2012 - Road Course / AutoX
$300+$150+$50 = The $500 it originally said.

Re: MAP Proving Grounds 2012 - Road Course / AutoX
Who knows. Most of the customers who road race that we sponsor can't go. My wife will probably we driving her Evo. But her main focus is to goto Road America. We have a Chumpcar race the week after Proving Grounds at BIR.

Re: MAP Proving Grounds 2012 - Road Course / AutoX
Question for TTS: Right now, the schedule says, "Spend Saturday trying to get your best quarter mile time." There's a good chance I am going to be off doing ...other.. stuff Saturday. Would it be possible to have one's best time recorded from Friday or Sunday instead?
Thanks much!

You just need one pass. It would have to be on Saturday for a few reasons.
1, Weather changes. If it rains on Saturday, and you were the only one to run on Sunday, that'd be un-fair.
2, Saturday is the Drag Test/Tune day.
If all else fails, if the weather is ok, and you’re not in the 1-3rd place running’s, I'd be just fine with it. It’s the other competitors that will hate on you.

Shouldn't be too hard, if they drive it into the water like they did last year.

No Doubt!
What does everyone think about having a quick tech day down in Hastings at the shop I work in before the the Proving Grounds to look over cars?
Also Ryan Gates maybe joining the TTS on street tires, not sure if it will happen but there was some trash talking on facebook about BIR track times that might get him motivated to make the show. TPAL!
