Hey Juan, where'd you get the schedule?

I assume you have an enclosed trl, and will not want a garage.

On paddock theres a few, flat cement, level, parking spots that nascar uses for their rigs... they go fast,

Otherwise pretty much anywhere you like. just watch the yellow lines.
I like the west side. pit out end,


Any idea how many entries / cars? is this a sell out? will garages be a problem?

The event is a sellout and has been for a few weeks.
We will have a few less drivers than last time because Suncoast is running at Sebring on Saturday so we will have fewer instructors........sorry about the two students thing Mr Bill ;-)

DanS911

Oh and we will run the same schedule as last time to......unless we need to change it tomorrow!!

thanks Juan!

SO
if the gates open at 7, and its 30-45 min to get in. (if you arrive after 6:30)

it looks a little tight to make these meetings....

8:00 am Mandatory Student and Instructor meeting

Sure wish there was a better way to get in, like giving the guard two or 3 waiver sheets! (hint hint)... and a helper?

BrokeAss

Mr. Bill - I think you just volunteered!

When PBOC does events at Sebring, they've offered Friday afternoon registration at the Chateau. (A very smart idea!) I don't believe they have the same setup when running at Homestead. A lot of folks are skipping the hotel and just getting up at o'dark-thirty and driving down that morning.

See you there!

What a nice voluteering job by Mr Bill People like Terry, Dan and Mr Bill are what make these events go well.

OK, OK, the "careful what you wish for" is loud and clear!

Actually the problem is at the guard gate, typically I arrive at 6:30 - 6:45

AND it would not be a problem to walk the 'line' getting everyone signed in before the guard arrives... but would the guard trust us at our word?

My guess is there are 2 forms to be completed, a PCA/PBOC and the tracks's waiver.

I will see if I have an extra clipboard, and will be willing to bring it.

The question is can I get the right forms, and will the track allow us to sign their forms without their employee present....

Dan/Terry, you want me to call the track about this?

-Wouldnt we need to give out arm bands ? to prove waivers signed?

whatever you guys decide is fine with me....
