Bubba, put my name on the list, this way if I do show up then I won't have any issues at the gate. I think my neighbor is having a communion party for her annoying a** kid that weekend so if I can get away and come up there after my Philly PD written test then all the better.

Do you know how much admission will be? I will probably be paying at the gate so if it's like $50 I will totally do what i can to be there sometime in the afternoon. I will more than likely not be putting my car on the track, I learned my lesson last time and the GF said if I blow up another engine then I'm done and the car will just sit at her aunts house until whenever.

It's $40 to get in with your car. $50 if you want to be eligible for a show trophy.

$25 for a weekend walk-in pass, but I know that's not your style

You're on the list. I suggest bringing your helmet along just in case you change your mind while in the paddock....

Hey Sean, (this is Sean right? LOL), if you're trailering into the fairgrounds make sure you pay the extra $10-15 upfront when you register. I didn't do it and it was a pain in the a** to do at the fairgrounds last year!
Not Sean, James... but we can pretend you were close

its not a full size trailer... its a small tire trailer.. does that need to be paid for as well?

Yep. You're now registered to run on the track for free. Your car and helmet just need to pass a simple tech inspection when you first arrive at the track. Those easy requirements are located on the first page of this thread.

See you there!

You and your wife are in, (I need her name, please) Thanks. As far as parking, there are no reserved parking areas in the paddock. But there should be plenty of room to find a spot for friends to park together. I suggest whoever arrives first simply block off an area big enough to fit the other friend(s). It should not be a problem.

Bubba, I just got word that a local CSP friend of mine would like to come to this event. His name is Franklin Dam.

I'm not sure if I gave you a number of choice, and if were allowed to pick our own, it'd be good to have 35 or 135 as I have these magnets made at home already. If Frank can pick his own number, I'm pretty sure he's 73 but if 73 is taken I'm sure he can do 173 or 731 (strip of tape rep'ing as a 1).

I just added him to the list. Both 35 and 73 are available. I'll put you down for 35 and Franklin down for 73. As info, the numbers only need to be on the driver side.

Much thanks. Frank is pretty quick, and is usually a good front-runner for who will take CSP class on any given day. It'll be nice to have another DC regional autox'er there =).

Yes. She's now on the list, but I just need her last name. As far as passengers, we are restricting passengers to staff cars.

Just to double check, if you bring a convertible, it has to have a rollbar that meets the requirements.

Yeah I knew from the last two years :) The vert is just my transportation, I usually end up borrowing a car for the track.

How about either 4 or 0 for my number.
Hooray!

Bubba: I remember last time I was there (07?) that the 'track'/lot was full of gravel and everyone's tires were getting eaten up (well, mine were and I was not drifting). Are corner workers/volunteers/i.e. us.. have pushbrooms to keep the debris to a minimum? Just curious...then again I have not been to the events after the first one.. so maybe it's way better now?

Also. Anyone coming up on 95 N on Saturday morning that wants to caravan to Carlisle ..let me know.. I could meet up before the trip into PA as I am pretty close to the state line..

Hi Sky. The track should be better than '07. The corners were deteriorating badly and the drifters did a good job accelerating the deterioration :D and spread the debris around. Carlisle blacktop patched the corners several weeks ago. I saw it.
The paddock is unchanged. We're supposed to get 2 pushbrooms. Assuming we have the volunteers, the plan is to sweep any debris during each transition from drift to autocross.
