Still looking for at least 5 more drivers interested in SLMP #2!
if we don't have the minimum 15 entries to break even I don't think we can ask just ten people to cover the cost of the track rental and insurance costs

I'll be calling Joe tonight about holding the dates open, but it's tentative at best right now

:bow!:
That looks like it will be fun!

I actually started checking over the Miata in hopes I could scrape up the $$$ to go..
Miata findings:
Breaks - Good
Tires 1 - Street tires would be toast at the end of the event.
Tires 2 - Toyo RA1s that have not been on the car in 5 years are yellow and hard as rocks. (should be fun)
Suspension - good shape hardly any miles on it since the FM2.5 swap.
Engine - Running good
Clutch/Trans - meh, Clutch still needs to be replaced, but not slipping. A bit clunky 2->3 & 3->4.. Doable though..
Fluids all good.. Except for the engine oil seeping out the weep hole in the bottom of the trans. Looks like the the rear main has developed a leak, leaving dollar bill sized puddles on the garage floor... :censor: :mad: :censor: :mad:

No SLMP for me this year again.... :(

So unfortunately I need to back out. I really wanted to hit SLMP again but unfortunately you picked the same weekend as H20i, one of if not the biggest VW shows on the east coast and it would usually be a difficult call where I would probably choose the track, but my new job kind of obligates me to go to H20 instead. Plus I'll get paid to go to the show and but not SLMP :mrgreen:

We need 2 more people for SLMP to happen!

Ed Raymond and Sam Raymond have said they're interested in running SLMP so that makes 2 more spots to fill and we're a go!

Bill King, and Josh Hess are maybe's! at the moment, will know soon if they can go! If so it'll be SLMP a go

Ricky, Sam and I are a go. When you get a chance send us some hotel info as I am too old to camp. This should be sweet with my new TT coupe
