When do we find out if we are actually in or not? There are 50+ people registered, is there a cap?
So we are to be at MSR at 7am. Anyone down for breakfast in Benbrook before? There a whataburger we hit last year, but I'm thinking that some early Jack In the Box a couple doors down sounds good too. Right at 820 and 377. When you exit they are on the right.
Anyone wanna do food beforehand?

Confirmed and paid. Looks like 59 people are in and 11 on the wait list. That's going to be a crowded track day!

Yeah, I got an email last night saying I was on the waiting list. I signed up back on 9/28 when there were about 38 cars on the roster, so I'm not sure how they determined who would be placed on the waiting list. They said they'd let me know by Friday evening if I'm in or not.
Well fuck. Just spoke with Majestic Honda and my new CV joints won't ship until Friday, so it looks like I'm out for this one.
I was confirmed and paid, so that will free up one spot on the waiting list.

Typically, they are looking at track experience and whether or not you've run other PCA events when deciding who makes the cut and who is wait-listed.

So what is everyone's best time on the 1.3 so far? I've only been once and ran a 1:09 in traffic.

Last year (my first time on the 1.3) I did a 1:15.387 in a 1.6 on street tires. I have no idea how that compares to other Miatas of the same setup.
I ran a 1:12.0 on awesome DZ101s with 4 bent rods.
I did a DE out there last March with Apex. My best lap was 1:14:08 back when I had Hankook V12s on the car. I've since upgraded to Star Specs, so I was hoping to get out there and see what I can do on Sunday. Hopefully I'll get moved off the waiting list.
I was confirmed, this will be my 3rd PCA TT in the last year.
my best time is slower than all yours, but I have just as much fun if not more!

Dang, Wortham is fast. 1:05.7 wonder if that was on R's.
