    I'm still considering this. Long drive but might be worth the hassle

    I would really wana see how you do at Famoso compared to Sac. Plus you'll be hanging with a great crowd.

    600 ft elevation vs. 30 ft. I imagine I'll be a tad slower but if I get better traction I can more than make up for that I hope.

    Here's your second chance guys. This was just posted by Mo, the event organizer.



    **** NEW DATE AGAIN: 01/30/2010 ****



    Guys, I'm so sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but believe it or not the event is now postponed to January 30th. There are two main reasons for this:



    1) Despite all weather prediction sites and even weather stations confirming that there is 0% chance of rain (until after 10 pm) on Saturday, there will be a lot of fog on Saturday morning. We just got confirmation that the track area will see dense fog on Friday night and Saturday morning, which unfortunately, does not clear up until noon to 1:00 pm, and would of course kill half of our racing day immediately. And no matter how many times they warm up the track with the burners, fog will condense immediately as soon as it lands on top of the hot surface and will create an un-safe slippery condition.



    2) Eight people canceled at the last minute. This put a big dent in our rental cost. So, I'm actually reducing the rental size and insurance coverage for amount of cars allowed to race on the track for that day. From now on, there will be no reserving spots and no paying at the track or paying last minute or after the deadline. All payments sent to JSunner's account will be given to track management directly by him along with a list of participants. You must cancel at least 48 hours in advance to give a chance to fill the spot by someone else. Anyone not on the list will not be able to race that day but is welcomed to come as a spectator.



    New deadline for payment is end of day Tuesday, January 26th 2010



    I'm sorry again for the bad news everyone, but it was truly out of my control. If anybody on the list can not make it on the 30th, please PM me and I will have them refund your money instantly....



    Okay..... so two more weeks.... 8 more spots to fill..... more mods to do..... so let the fun begin
