[QUOTE=U4EEAH;7895821Am I missing something? Is there prize money someone didn't tell me about. ?????[/QUOTE]

Kevin,
you'd better check this link, apparently there is a big escrow account in your name with unclaimed prize money in it.....

Case in point Doug. If we grid by class I would have to get through all the E and F cars that you left in your dust before we could race. By the time I did, you would be at the BBQ

frank,

my speedwerk buddies are all going to the Glen that same weekend. if i was part of the 944 group i probably would too but i just think NASA events are a waste of time. besides my car not being very competitive in GTS3, the track time that NASA offers is lame. their avg race is about 10 laps around the Glen or VIR or wherever and there is only 2 of them for the entire weekend. Last year at PCA Summit race we had 3 Sprint races and a 90 minute enduro, plus friday practices and fun races!

My only request is that the F cars end up in group with the D and E cars.

Thanks for the encouragement, guys. I will give it some thought as there's no doubt that PCA races are better than NASA. However, I'd clearly be racing for overall at Summit, as there's not a single SP3 entered, and at the Glen there are already 3 with more to come. That translates into possible tires up for grabs. Plus, the Glen is gorgeous at this time of year.
Your point is well taken though, Fred!

This "back marker" says grid by time.

Doug. Yep you are right, but sometimes we end up getting bumped to the next group with the G-K cars.

Since I love beating a dead horse:

I pose this in all seriousness because I do a lot more Nasa than PCA so I will have to adjust some of my assumptions.

Hypothetical for the grid by timers:

Scenario: You are an F car and qualified ahead of all the E cars. FredC and Timmy Lin crash in the esses taking out E cars 1 and 2. That leaves Good Hands and me fighting for 1st and second in E. Either I purchased some ***** or I'm cheating and I am somehow able really pressure Good hands and we are wheel to wheel, door to door, back and forth. It's epic.

You've been watching us in your mirror. We get a little closer each lap. Finally we are right behind you.

Do you:

A) Race us as if we are all going for an overall finishing position?

or

B) Do you allow GH and I to continue our E battle to the end?

Ah crap, is that the schedule this year, too? Does that meant the third sprint is on Sunday morning? I was hoping to be out of there Saturday night.
