Got any suggestions for lunch??

[Banzai Ben]

Is it okay for Mikey to run the autocross with his SRT4?

I vote for a different lunch place too, service was very slow last time.

Yikes I waited to make my hotel reservation, just booked now. The rooms are nearly gone! I had to pay $239 for a room! =17

[Banzai Ben]

Scott,
Try using Kayak.com and search Indio. I got a room for $179 but they are now showing $194.
May end up the same as yours after fees, though.

Eddie and Michelle are in for Friday and Saturday night the cruise sounds good to me. Lets make the times fast and keep your eye on the prize.

Please add Mikey to the list.
He will run with the non-Vipers in our SRT-4 Neon.

I'll be there! I plan on beating the champ, Banzai Ben, in a Smart Car!

You're not bringing the GTS race car?

[PCH VIPER]

I just got the details worked out with the Corvette Club    >v

We should plan on arriving as a group at the Fairgrounds at 8:30 am
We will have to complete our registration as soon as we arrive.
You MUST have your License and Insurance Card in order to register !!!!!!
I also suggest bringing your own helmets.

We have set up a SPECIAL deal:  $60.00/Viper   This will cover registration for Saturday's event AND 8 runs !  =27
This will get us more runs and also provide a nice donation to the Charity Fund.   >r

The course will go hot at 9:00 am.

We will be competing against the Corvettes for the Trophy.....which we currently hold.
Rules:
The first pass is a reconnaissance lap and will not count.  
Runs 2, 3, and 4 will count towards the team time from each side.   So the pressure will be on to make a good pass in one of those 3 runs.  
They will take your fastest time of the 3 runs and put that on the team score.

Once everyone has gotten through their first 4 runs, they will take the 5 fastest times from each team and get an average time for each team.  

The Winner of the challenge will get the bragging rights and trophy for the next year.  >v

In addition to this, the Vipers will have their own class and a trophy for the fastest time for the Sat / Sun.
All 8 runs will count and the fastest time will win.  So who will prove to be the FASTEST Viper overall?  
<2

We are not "buying" the first 2 hours as an exclusive run time for Vipers and Vettes......but they have agreed to setting up a special lane for Vipers to run in and will put our cars through at a rate of 2 to 1 over the general public lanes.   So expect to see 2 vipers run, followed by 2 vettes, followed by a single general public car.  We should be able to get all 8 runs in by noon.   Main thing is that we all get our first 4 passes in for the challenge.



Please email me and let me know if you are coming so I can fill out the registration forms ahead of time and send them in by Weds.  This will save YOU a bunch of time by not having to wait in line for them to input your information when you pay.
