Looks good!

Are we expecting that many SM/SSM? I've got at least 4 guys in (Franklin/Tolley/Cummings/Boileau) - who else?

[Waco Racer]

I would guess at 10 SM/SSM.

4:25 PM 4:45 PM 0:20 Grudge/Fun Race (If enough interest from Competitors)

Hey.... 944 guys. This is your chance. CMC will even let 944Spec start in front.

[CMC#35]

And this track doesn't have a 1/2 mile front straight, so we'll have to beat ya in the corners.

That will be fun !

It looks like all HPDE groups and comp school will be on the track at the same time. That sounds like one long slow freight train ride.

Unfortunately when HPDE cars don't support an event you have to combine.

With only 6-8 HPDE cars (including TT), those of you going will have excellent track time!!!!

Bob, when Beth and I did HPDE at Hallett last year it was all combined. By the third session it was pretty much open passing, within reason. The three Spec Rental Mustangs were slower than everybody else, but once you know who's out there with you, it can be just plain fun. There were barely any complaints both days :)

I have to second that. Everyone in our HPDE group was really helpful and considerate. I learned a ton from having the groups together as well. It was just generally an awesome experience. :-)

You guys are killing me. I tried as hard as I could to get out of work Fri & Mon to run HPDE at Hallett, but I came up short. Only 6 - 8 cars in the run group? You're going to have a blast and plenty of open track if you want it. If you haven't driven Hallett before, it is a FUN FUN FUN track. I'm dying here having to miss it.
