thought it was like 10 last year.
I don't have anything specific but from past experience it should be 11 or 12...

Maybe gates open at 10... I've slept since then.

I just sent JR an email asking about gate/start times for both Fri-Sa (never heard back last week?).
I wanted to post some info on Miatas @ Hallett this year. We will be having five classes instead of four to help eliminate some of the crowding in previous years, especially in Int II. We are also dropping the price from $165 to $135. The Friday afternoon session is still $75 as there are some fixed costs we just can't bypass. Friday will be open to anyone with prior track experience, not necessarily Hallett, including the Motorsports Ranch, TWS, TMS or others. If you have any questions about whether you qualify, contact me here or at [email protected]. Also, you don't have to run Saturday to run Friday, but we'd really like it if you did. Hope to see you there! j.r.
Are we required to wear a race suit on Friday. Can we run with the top down? Inquiring minds want to know.

I think that Friday's requirements are the same as Saturday's. But, this is my first Friday at M@H, so I just guessing.
And, top down was OK on Saturday the last two years. But, that's only for the car.
"Appropriate clothing is required while on the track. Long sleeve shirts and long pants are required, preferably cotton. Shoes should be comfortable rubber smooth soled such as tennis shoes or boat shoes. No sandals will be allowed."
On the track, I am fearless.
If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

I believe the track will be open at 8 a.m. We will be doing tech at 12 and first car off will be at 1 p.m.
I have copied this email to our chairman, Lewis Leslie, if he has any different info. Looking forward to seeing you and your compatriots from DFW Miata there. j.r.
Then this one....
JR,
I emailed Connie Stephens this week. The track doesn't open until 12:00 on Friday.

Ok, thanks. Any idea what time the gates open?
And a few more questions, they flyer says that registration is 12-5 Friday at the Hampton. Lots of us will be at the track then. Will it be possible to register at the track on Friday, or will well all have to do it Saturday morning at the track.
Will our Friday tech be valid for Saturday? Again, don't want to be running around on Saturday morning if we can avoid it..
Sorry for all the questions. Appreciate the help.
Thanks,
Dan
Dan,
We will register you at the track as well as perform the clean tech on the car. We are going to handle everything at the track Friday and we will have at least four volunteers who will be performing the clean tech and registering participant. Tech is good for the weekend.
At the first session on Satruday the volunteers will make sure your car is free on extra items, but you will not have to go through tech again.
See you in a few days.
Lewis
Here's the official poop from an email I received today from Lewis Leslie (from the AR Miata Club)...
Good Afternoon,
It is hard to believe that we are less than two weeks from Mitas At Hallett. We are going to do something different this year-register participants who are driving at our Friday track day at the track. We are going to perform our clean tech and register you where you are parked between noon and 1 PM. There will be four or five volunteers from the Arkansas Miata Club who will be doing this, so it should not be a problem. To complete these tasks in a timely manner we need you help. Please do the following:
1.Clean out your car before you get to the track. Check your glove box, trunk, cubbie holes and behiund the seats. Be sure to remove your floor mats too.
2. Be at the track before Noon on the 17th. The track will not open until noon, but you need to be in line so you enter the track quickly,when it does open.
3. Bring your required forms. You should have downloaded them with the forms you sent in. IF you didn't, you can go to the Arkansas Miata Club website and down load them. The forms you need are:
-Pre-inspection form (completed within 30 days of the event)
-Driver's License Form/Helment Release Form
-Medical Form
-Clean Tech Inspection Form
4. Be sure to have a long sleeve shirt and your helment
If you have questions, email me.

...so if you guys plan to be there on time, do not ride up with the Plano crew. I also recommend that you do not take US75/69 up there because I did this in McAllester a couple weeks ago:
I'm taking the "clunk clunk" I-35.

What the hell did you hit? The Grand Canyon?
I'm not speeding officer, I'm qualifying!!!

99 S10 ZQ8 (sold)
95 Merlot M
05 GSXR 600 (To buy my house)
Take it from a former Okie, I-35 to OKC and then turnpike to Tulsa is the best route. I think the speed limit on the turnpike is 75 MPH now. Too many speed traps on the 75/69 route.

I35 is under constant construction.
If you wanted a more scenic route, take 377 out of DFW up to 177 through Sulpher (where you can stop and see the springs/take a dip [warning it's cold]). When you hit 40 east of OKC you have lots of routes you can take. This route will take longer, but you'll see more than interstate and long delays south of OKC.
I'm headed to OKC for a free bed on Thursday night so I can have a leisurely breakfast and make the short drive to the track Friday morning.
Last year Vern and I went back to Dallas via OKC - not a bad way to go, and OKC makes a nice lunch stop. Agreed that 75/69 is a shitty drive. I don't like slowing down for all the speed traps. Besides, I'm going to get enough driving in over the weekend, so I want to take the cruise control route home.

will be hanging in okc with john and quan on Thursday. staying at the grandparents = free room
the best way to go imo is 35 to okc then this, with this route you can stop in Jennings on the way and fuel up with 91. it's the closet gas station to hallett with 91.
think i will try to take this way back. it's less miles and the same 5 hours but looks way more fun
fun way???

I sure wish I could do this event. If for no other reason than to be able to participate in the worlds largest forum thread.
Next year in Hallett!!
Yep... that's exactly how I'm going.
I'll be hitting up Big Truck Tacos for breakfast with my cousins before I roll out.

MMMMM... Ted's Cafe Escondido in Edmond, OK (Danforth Rd. west of I-35) is a great place to eat.
