Default Which tire company will be at the Glen race?

And if you buy tires from them, will they mount them Thursday evening or first thing Friday morning?

Woodman has it listed on their schedule. I don't know about the timing and when they'll be up and running.

I was assured that they would be up and running by 10am on the Friday (maybe before). Reason I asked is because I need a new set for qualifying, which is scheduled for the Friday afternoon.

Fred - You do know that Hoosier East is right up in Hartford, yes? I'm going to run a set of wheels up next week so I don't have to deal with the track rush and just be done with it. If you want, you could drop your wheels off here and i'd be happy to run yours up also..

Of COURSE I would be happy to run your wheels up also Sean! I think Fred lives about 20 minutes from me so it wouldn't be too much of a PITA for him. If you want to run yours up here I would be more than happy to bring them up! Maybe the best thing, as far as payment for you guys, would be to call HE and get the bill squared away and you will be all set. Just let me know, i'll be around tomorrow but my daughter's college graduation is Sunday.. i'm pretty sure that between my truck and trailer I can fit all of them and just bring them to the Glen with me..

I did not know that. Thanks for the offer, but i am all set. All my gear is with Dan who will transport it to the Glen. I will kill whatever rubber i have left during the Thursday DE and Friday practices and get Woodman's people to mount some tires on Friday at lunch...

Are we doing steaks on Wednesday evening? I plan on getting there between 6 and 7pm.

NY Strips at the Seneca for a change!
Not sure what time registration will be and since I have a notation in my log book (seat lowering) I may need to run the car through tech also so they can stamp the note. Are Automobile Assoc. the techs for this?
