There is pending construction to start on the lot, which could begin this week or sometime after the event. So, we have multiple courses based on the possible lot configurations. We will not really know until we get there which course we will use. I have a co-worker that drives by each day, so he s keeping me updated on the lot.

For it to really make a difference, we would have to be done by 10 AM, but we'll give you 11 AM. That means we would have to start the event at 6 AM. Course setup would have to start at 4 AM, at the latest. I would have to get up at 2:30 AM or earlier.

I need my beauty rest but I vote for A/C at the corner stations.

I'll bet the course has to change depending on how many bulldozers and backhoes are parked between corners two and four.

I applaud the against-the-grain course design, hope it sticks. Never mind the heat - back when Men autox'ed it wasn't a problem. Should be a fantastic day as long as that damn Casey Antnee doesn't show up and kill everyone.

Lol

It's never a problem for Ken Block in all those cool Gymkhana videos.

Hey, I wouldn't lose any sleep over that

[justin81]

It is so optional that it is on 35w... and invisible.

Got that covered. Hey I went to an ER event. You should come to a BMW event.
