Not quite the same shot out the front, but a visor mount on the pasenger side for the camera could be used...

I've seen setups where people use a lipstick camera, however, the question is where do you stick the camcorder? It still has to be secured somewhere/somehow.

We are one month from the event and need to get slots filled up in order for us not to lose money. So I need to act soon in order to give people enough notice.

Do you guys have any problems letting other cars in. I am thinking of making it in only "EUROPEAN CARS". M3's, Audis, Lotus, Mercedes, . NO IMPORTS.

So please sign up fellow Porsche guys or please invite your friends who have nice European Rides.

thanks,

Fred

Fred,

You may have already done this... but have you posted on all the other forums, email lists, etc. from the local area ? Posted flyers at the Porsche Dealers/Garages ?

Then again, maybe you want invitation through 'known' people ? But, I'm guessing not.... cuz somehow you let *me* in! ;-)

Dear UnlimitedLaps Participant,
You are receiving this email because you have a confirmed entry for the
8/9/04 UnlimitedLaps/6SpeedOnline event at Thunderhill Park Raceway.
Many thanks to our event sponsors Akkurat Performance Group, Inc.,
Carlsen Porsche, and Clear Armor for making this event possible.

PLEASE ARRIVE EARLY! Gates will open at 7:00 am and the mandatory
Drivers' Meeting will begin promptly at 8:15 am. If you miss the
Drivers' Meeting, you will have to miss your first track session so we
can brief you. We want to make sure everyone gets maximum track time so
it is important we start on time. Please see the event page on
UnlimitedLaps.com for a tentative schedule of the day.

Due to hot weather conditions this time of the year, please come
prepared for a warm day by wearing hats and sun block. Despite the high
temperature, we recommend that you be dressed in long pants and long
sleeve shirt while driving, though shorts and t-shirts will still be
allowed.

A complimentary catered lunch will be served and there will be plenty
of drinks and snacks for everyone but you are welcome to bring your
own. If you have any unexpected guests, they may join us for the lunch
for $10 each.

You should have already had your tech inspection done. If not, please
get it squared away as soon as you can. You are not required to use our
tech stations but you must produce a completed and signed tech sheet on
the morning of the event. Our tech form is available for download from
our website.

We have posted hotel information on the website. If you plan on driving
to Willows the night before, check our web site for the latest hotel
information.

The folks from Akkurat will be onsite to provide you with information
on their aftermarket parts and tuning options for your Porsche.

A limited number of HotLap lap timers will be available for rental at
$20 per day. For information regarding reserving a lap timer, please
send an email to ulaps@mpactmotorsports.com.

For the latest event updates, please see http://www.unlimitedlaps.com/.
We look forward to seeing you at the track!

Is there a contact # to try to reach someone in case we want to 'sync-up' at one point during the day ?

Thanks,

Andy
