I am not sure why, but not many have signed up for the Midwest Muscle Car Challenge. So, to be sure it isn't price, we are dropping the price by $50 per entry. Those already registered will get a refund at the event. This event is in two weeks, so we need you to sign up now. Small crowds mean plenty of run time and this is a two day event so bring extra tires.
See you guys there.

You know I'll be there and plan to run the new setup/475 stroker motor in the WarPath Light White Trans Am....
I'll be there with the 33 Ford...and the 48 Hour Camaro...and whatever else is still running after Nashville.

Is there a rule about 2 driver cars? My "pro-touring car" isn't legal but the late model is......

Since I'm heading to Power Tour the following week, I was trying to find a way to justify driving instead of flying and coming to the event, but costs get out of hand pretty quickly for so little actual seat time, and that is if nothing breaks, lol.

Well, I still don't have my turbo back from being rebuilt. We'll see, but it ain't looking good. That and I still haven't found my fuel pressure issue and why it dropps after a few seconds (sometimes)!
Dooh!!!
If I come it'll definately be a last minute thing!

I might be able to be there as a spectator for one of the days, still not sure. All this retiring and relocating stuff eats up a lot of time and resources!

Bring the late model, that is fine. Two driver cars are tough to keep up with who drove when with the timers. They record cars, not drivers.

The price was reduced to $200 for both days. If you can only make one day you can pay $100 for just that day only as well.
We will be there with the following cars:
33Ford
48 Hour Camaro
2010 Camaro
66 Chevelle
...maybe more!

I want rides !!
It's funny , I was riding to work this morning and I thought , " All of us guys on pro-touring have our own personal roller coasters ".
Most of our vehicles survived Nashville just fine. The notable exception was Greg Schneider's C10 truck. Trashed, maybe totaled. BUT...we have parts to fix it...and fix it we will, just not for this weekend.
We're building swaybars, changing springs, and changing tires on the 33 for MMC. Nothing fatal fell off so its an easy week!
For you guys who have not been to Lawrenceville...lots of traction there and nothing to hit. Don't worry about being fast [or not] it's an easy laid back deal and you'll get LOTS of laps. The weather is looking great, but it will be hot. Bring shade and liquids.

I planned on hitting this event but still waiting on parts...so it's a no-go. Hope to get everything here and installed before Road America next month. Hate to miss this one though!

Well, got the rebuilt turbo on, new fuel pump in, transmission governor in, and working on sticking the rocker studs back in (cause they keep coming loose for some reason!). So I am REAL close and Lord willing we will be there!! WooHoo!! Just has to work when it gets together!!
Can I register there or are there any "specials" for pre-registering?

This is a great deal , $100 per day for a big 'ol course event ..
This is a great deal !!
I'm signed up for two days !

This one was too soon after RTOS. I haven't gotten the replacement part I needed in yet nor have I been able to replenish my coffer from the last event. Otherwise, it sounds like one I would really enjoy if I could make it! I hope you guys have a great time!

You and Kim better be running her car at least. Will be a good chance for a lot of track time to get comfortable.

Well, it was HOT today! But there was a breeze that made it quite nice really. The cars didn't think the breeze was too helpful tho!
Well, I got 2 auto-x runs in and about 3 road course laps in before my tranny died......yup you heard it right, the tranny ka-chunked!! Sounds like it is a sprag issue prolly.

Sound like you need to sweet talk mark into building you a 4L80E.

It is a TH400 that I threw together, guess that a roofer can't build a tranny to hold up to that kind of power!! LOL! Possibly a stocker, but not a rocker! Dooh!!
And I am definately considering calling him for it.
