I'll be there Sat and Sun.

I'm really looking forward to it. Putnam is such a fun, low-key, low-stress race weekend.

Default 2012 Schedule

It's my first time headed to Putnam. It looks like a big Stock E turnout for 2012. Does anyone have any tips for reducing lap times?
In addition, is there a tentative schedule posted anywhere?

22 in E class! That has to be a Putnam race record...

The keys to a fast lap at Putnam are the fast turns... Turns 1 (faster than you think), 4 (off-camber), and 9-10 (a little hairy because of the armco). It's a really fun little track.

Have family visiting out here in the RockieFire Mountains. Really wish I could make this one.

Have fun guys. I'll be watching on RaceMonitor.

And hopefully will see you all at Elkhart

Thanks for the tips.

It now looks like 23 Stock E racers are showing up for Putnam, including the track record holder for E! Should be a great race weekend I'm just hoping it won't be 104 degrees like it was this past week.

See you at the track.

Oh good, I can spend two more days looking at the back of your car. Perfect.
