Yeah I'm taking the Spec V, and I'll be in Group 1 since it's my first time at a track event.

Where are you staying?

Undetermined as of yet. Chris P and I were discussing possibilities... most likely a few of us in a hotel room. Innkeeper, maybe. I'll include you in our plans if you like.

Thanks for the offer but, I got a room at the Days Inn. They said they already had a lot of reservations already, so might want to make your plans soon. It's probably because the Honda Challenge is that weekend.

Let me know though if nothing works out, so far it's just my brother and I in our room.

X.. yes it is good to learn the car before you mod it; to a point. BUT, imho somthing like shocks should be changed to ge the full use out of the car. I do agree w/ holding off on power mods until you get the hang of the car.

"Full use" of the car takes years to learn... even on worn out suspension.

Best mod = the loose nut behind the wheel

Alright I changed to the Sleep Inn. I got an e-mail from NASA stating that the rooms at Sleep are discounted to $65 a night if you mention them, so I thought I would jump on it.
