Are any of the West/East Coast guys coming to Road America this year??
Are Midwest folks allowed ?

If it is over Labor Day weekend I plan to be there for DE and to watch the races and enjoy the camraderie.

That's a given since it's relatively close versus the coasts.

That's the big Chicago PCA event and will be lots of fun, especially the camraderie.

I'm sure Daytona will be fun too.

I was trying to get out to the Vegas event in June. But, no rims, no race.

Thank for the thought Stan, but the Big Reds won’t clear.

They are 'purdy! I already talked to Tom about these. Unfortunately, they are the wrong offsets and it costs ~$250 per rim to re-halve them. Otherwise I would be all over them!

"I have my old set of Forgeline wheels for sale, I upgraded to 18' for this year."

Isn't there a rule against wheels that big? I mean, 18' must tweak your gear ratios at the very least...

Strait off the Hoosier website:

Size____________Circumference
255/45-17.....................81.5
315/35-17.....................80.4
335/30-18.....................80.4

And now we have come full circle, back to my root problem.....

ATTA BOY JOHN!!!!

Looking forward to it!! Hopefully all of the "Three Amigos" can make it down to race in this one!!! I'm sure at time of the year, that you'll still be able to wear short sleeves & we'll have lots of palm trees like in those pics I sent ya from Sebring!

Hey.... I did just see in Panorama the other night where they have a different race shown for mid Oct. on their PCA race list?? Hopefully thats old news based upon what David L. passed on from last month!
