Happy Friday.

Is this at the Bondurant main track or one of the others. I am thinking the main track is the one with the strait away we used last weekend. They going to use the full track (Bondurant portion)? 5 hours = how many laps?

Fitz,
This event will not be on the racetrack. The Bondurant autocross course is on the large paved skid pad area in front of the Bondurant office & classroom building. Click here to watch the video and/or see the photo below. You can see the course in the right corner of the skid pad.

If our toys all had power steering and brakes like the vettes it would be more enjoyable on the very short many turn course. I would move schedule around if this was on main track%/:JEKYLHYDE Even at that most of us would need serious messages afterwards. For those worrying about hitting the walls it appears there aren't any!

put me down as a serious maybe for saturday/sunday. Havent had a chance to get into the shop to have them tune the fuel injection again but still in even if not running great. I have been throughly unimpressed with the FAST system over this 5 years in holding a tune on my Roush

Lots of cars, loads of fun, and the Corvettes got politely smacked down at their own club event. Snakes ruled, sort of. Top honors went to CobraVern's FFR Cobra powered by a small block Ford, and second place went to Alex & Fred Zust's wicked Viper ACR.
