After the last time we went down there and beat them, they all sold their cars or just moved out of the class. What are they going to do this time? Quit racing??

good hands

Some of us left E class due to the wreckless drivers

Others just want to block in a different class

So is this like a North vs South kind of a racing event?

It will be my last race in F, and I want it to be memorable.....

I'm in, but there better be Peach Cobbler this year!

BostonDMD

Never mind the peach cobbler, you better watch those double yellows, and don't pass the pace car......

Gary R.

I'm going to pass whatever is in front of me and they can sort it out later!

Is there a schedule out yet for this event?

Let me take a stab at what might be some of the reasons.

1) Mandatory use of Paypal. No checks, no money orders, no anything else. I personally loathe Paypal.

2) Loss of 1/2 your money($225) after sept 10th if you cancel

3) Loss of all your money( $450) if you cancel after Sept 25. I believe it was originally the 16th but they changed it.

These are some of the most unfriendly registration policies I've encountered in a long time.

Generally an organization will charge a nominal administrative charge ($25-50) if you cancel out of a race....but $250-$450 seems a bit on the unconscionable side to me.

This race has been in trouble before. I'd think the organizers would want to make it easier and less cumbersome to participate and certainly less penal if you need to cancel.

Just my .02.

I'll add to that: ^^^

Conflict with a NASA race at Watkins Glen, same weekend
Track was in horrible shape this time last year (no longer, though)

Hey, I cancelled out of the Watkins race a few years ago because I totaled my car a couple weeks before and never got a dime back so it isn't just them..
