[EXHLR8N]

The Conklin team ... Tom and Kurt .... are attending.

[Banzai Ben]

I'll be there. Not sure which car though.  >m

[PCH VIPER]

Bring the FAST one. 
Those Vette guys will be stacking the deck in their favor to try  and get an advantage   =15

[Banzai Ben]

Do you think it has to be a street legal car?

[ViperX]

Hey Ben,

You did pretty well with you ACR last year.

Don't know that I'd try a new car that may be sprung at a bit higher rates for the track.  I can tell you that my ACR pushed a bunch last year with the higher spring rates.  I'll likely soften them for this event if I have time.

Just spoke with Mark J at Woodhouse (a regular "Auto Crosser" with Vipers) and he recommends a set up very similar to your ACR OE set up for Auto X with Hoosier A6 tires.

Hey Lance,

Can we get the club room rate for Friday night?

We may just drive out Friday to avoid the 2 hour drive Saturday morning.

[PCH VIPER]

Ben......I checked with the Corvette club and your GTS-R is ok to run at the Auto-x. 

Dan, Yes we have rooms blocked out for both Friday and Saturday evenings.  Pretty good deal considering that it is moving into their peak season.

[Banzai Ben]

Thanks for the info.
I will probably be faster in the ACR because of what Dan said and because I'm used to driving it. I have no seat time in the GTS-R since it has not even arrived yet. I will decide as we get closer.

[1HOTACR]

Wow!    Nice..... <1

[NK BREKR]

Woohoo!  Happy for you Banzai Ben!  When does it arrive?

[Banzai Ben]

Thanks, just waiting for it to get picked up by the transport truck so probably next week.

[DarkSnake]

I plan to be there. with Becky, We plan to stay Friday Night and Saturday Night

Ben is that car even legal for the auto X  >w
