Work hard make lots of $$$$$, read rennlist, buy GT3, read rennlist some more, buy "TSB's", still work hard but little money left.

Gotta be better then when I was there in 08 with the One Lap. Monsoon conditions and every garage had at least 6" of water in it. Thank god they had benches to put our gear on

Hopefully no monsoon this time. Track is looking better by the month and has some real talent running it finally. Great banked turns, some technical ones and of course the high speed 1-2 combo after the NASCAR strait.

Still trying to get enough people interested. I locked the date witho he track so that's on hold. Contacted MVP a couple of days ago to see if they would send this info out to their participant list with no reply as of yet. If anyone knows the guys at MVP maybe a call would help.

Fwiw I would be willing to pay double or $300 if we only come up with half the people. Thats even a steal for a whole track to yourselves. I prefer we get 25. But im willing if everyone else is to split the difference over 12 people.

Mark Pfeffer - owner/operator and all-around great guy. His contact info is at the end of all his emails including his cell phone - which he will answer. Go back and look at the emails he sent you regarding COTA, its all there at the end of the email.

I would join but I don't think the Deputy Dog hauler will be in Texas soon enough. I guess I could take my rental Ford Taurus out there. Hertz probably wouldn't mind.
