Now that I know what the green group is, I am confused about sprint 2....

Very interesting. Looks like Green Sprint 2 will be a 10 car (Stock E Class) race given SP1,2&3 have their own Sprint 2 which is their National Championship Run-off. Could be fun looking at RennPoints time predictions for the top cars in E, would be even better with 5 more E class cars

Guess SPB with 19 cars was too many to be mixed in with 944Cup like they often do.

Exactly. Track load for PCA Club Racing at SP is 44 cars so having SPB and the 44s in the same run group was not going to work. Because we must run the 944s alone for the second sprint as it is their championship, the E cars get a completely un-cluttered race of their own too! How cool is that?

You should let the e cars in Vintage double dip for that race.

Agreed. There are a few of them. At any rate, this will be cool and fast AF.

Is it too early to start talking about the weather?

Is rain a frequent occurrence at Summit Point?

Never been there so I have a lot to learn...

Mike - There is often rain in the forecast, and more often than not it misses us as the storm cell breaks up before it gets to us. I live in Summit Point, so I know the weather pretty well... and our Grid Marshal is also a PhD Meterologist, so I consult with them in the days right prior to the race so we know what to expect. That said, bring your rains as you never know! Never want to miss a race because you left the right gear at home.

Only on Sundays


p.s. Unless it's pouring and you are going really slow, stay away from that curb in 5!
