OK, where are the usual suspects parking this year?
I figure the location of last year race was pretty convenient.....
Who is saving the spots?

I'll see what i can do since i get there mid-day Wednesday. As soon as the HairyDog transporter gets there, I'll try to fence off an area for the usual suspects.

D, E and SBox together in the Orange enduro........
....too bad one of the top D cars and the top E car won't be running it......

F is as per usual the bottom man on the totem pole of the Purple enduro......
....but the way I see it any other class car I beat (if any) will be a major accomplishment......

Let's get it on........

2) having all the SP cars will likely mean a split start again. That means the field will be that much smaller. We never saw them last year other than lapping the SP1 guys because the speed differential is so great.
3) who knows how well spbox will run? If they run close to us it will be awesome. If not, race will be spread out and come down to a very small lead pack on a very big track. When Fred spun in front of me on the 4th turn of the first lap last year, I didn't see another car until the last lap when Fred caught and passed me. I ran a DE for the entire race.
What is the split start all about? How does that work?

Should be a bit easier without FL staking out their acre.

Last year the SP1 and SP2 (not sure of other classes, maybe NASA Spec and Cup) cars started about 1 minute (not sure exactly how long) behind us with a separate pace car. We still ended up catching them but it was near the end of the race.
