    Agreed - 4 seemed to be where we kept getting two+ wide.

    I've learned to love turn 1. I didn't like it my 1st time out there, but the last time, I was starting to really like it.

    I have some things I need to work on that Brownie and Applehans brought up to me. So that's what I'm doing for Friday. Hopefully I'll drop some more time.

    Yeah, that was when I decided to settle for 4th. I'm bringing better tires this weekend; those Power Pures just would not hook up. I had an even bigger oh poop moment during practice(0:43):

    I've discovered a few sure fire ways to NOT win a race

    1) Crash
    2) Run out of fuel
    3) It is REALLY REALLY hard to win if you jump the start

    Seriously - crashing sucks. I've done my fair share of it, so I consider myself an expert on the subject. You lose the race, you wreck your shit and most of the time something on your body hurts. Beyond that you have to withstand the humiliation of the "ride of shame" back on the crash cart in front of all your friends and the other spectators.

    This is shaping up to be a GREAT superstreet battle! I know I'll be watching!

    Depends. Most people jump it, realize they jumped it, and stop. Then they blow the start behind everyone else who was primed to go already, and get a spicy meatball on top of that. If you're gonna jump it, jump the fuck out the start and keep going WOT.

    I'm ready to give the SS a try this weekend. I have a gift certificate for a free entry. Does anyone know how to register with it? I am guessing I show up with it on Saturday and register.

    Starting from the back might not be such a bad thing.

    WOW! Looks like SuperStreet turnout will be good from the CSC! Anyone coming out that needs somewhere to hang out, come look for Team Spinal Tap (our unofficial name). #880 (me), #427 (snowman), #522 (sprtbkbabe) and #420 (Davy4575) should be out there and will help you get your bearings if needed, lend you a tool, or give you unsolicited advice.

    Keep it upright and have fun!

    Gary,

    Just bring that certificate with you to the raceday office on saturday. Please try to get there before 10AM if possilble, If you want to be way ahead of the game you could fill out this form and bring it with you, ready to go!

    Thanks- - See you there!

    The SuperStreet guys tend to pit and hang out together at HPR in the row closest to the main entrance. That's where I'll be. I'll be towing a red ZX12 with either an Escalade or Saab 9-7x and if the wind is tame I'll have a big white EZUP. Come say hi.

    Probably more than will manage to make it there at the same time.

    I think the bigger question is how many can make it OUT of turn one!!!
    This has been a great class to watch this year.

    For the spectator 2 for 1 coupons to watch, is there an electronic copy of this I can print out? I have a few friends coming. And won't have time to run by a dealership after work before they all close.
