Default NJMP race

Why so few signed up this year? Last year there were 25, this year 10?

Maybe people are still traumatized from last year's heat?!?

I'm hoping we see a much bigger turnout in the next few weeks. It should be an awesome weekend!!

I think Robbie Wilson signing up scared everyone else off.

OK, we all need to accept that Robbie will beat all of us, and, with the right weather, may set the track record. After all, Watkins Glen was his first race in a SPB, and he set and reset the track record before someone with several years behind the wheel of a SPB pipped him by two tenths in the last race. Rennpoints is even predicting he will set the record (current SPB NJMP record is 1:31.556, and he is predicted to run a 1:31.483!). I'm still shocked he didn't get workers choice award at Watkins Glen for at least one race.... I don't know about you, but if Care Bears make you go that fast, I may just put them on my car!

Lots of usual names not signed up yet. I know some are getting work done on their cars, which may or may not be done before this race. There are usually 25-30 SPBs are at this race, so hopefully those numbers will get higher as the date gets closer. Total registrations at only 62 also seem a bit low for being 5 weeks out. Normally over 100.

Glad to see you are making the trip up Tim!

If all goes well, I'll be there for the DE on Wed and Thur to learn the track.

We are still short about 10 SPBs. I can't believe that there are more GTB1s signed up than SPBs. Sign up people!
