9th it is!!!  Practice at 8:45, Qualifying at 9:00, Race at 9:30PM, all times EST.

Updated first post to centralize all the needed info.

ATTN:  Camaro's horsepower has been reduced (disabled use of Sports Catalytic Converter) to 556hp.  With 570 hp it was still too fast for the Challenger  :-X

Sorry, but I'm out.  My cat thought it would be a good idea to chew through one of the cables on my G27.  It appears I can get a replacement shifter for about $40 on eBay, but I won't have it in time.

Sorry to hear that Rick!  I'll put you down as a mechanical failure ;)

Also, dogs >>> cats  :D

I've got another shifter on order, should be here Saturday or Monday.

Also, I've got a cat and a dog and my son has 7 or 8 fish.  If I ever get my freaking rental property finished, I'll have another dog to add to the family.  Been wanting a German Shepherd for about 40 years now, it's time.

Come on Rick, shift with the paddles!

And speaking of dogs, I just got a 2nd one on Monday night.  A 7 month old Lhasa Apso, Blue Heeler, Australian Cattle Dog mix.  But I'm not his owner, I'm just fostering him till he is adopted by a loving family  :)

FYI, I've got a little family business to take care of so I may be a little late. I should have no issues making the race I may just miss part of qualifying.  No worries though I like starting in the back... which I'd probably still do even if I do make it in time to qualify.  ;D

I applaud you for fostering an animal.  I simply can't do it.  I get attached and there's no way I could give one back.  My mom did it years ago and it tore her up to see them leave.  Kudos to you for helping and having the balls to give them up.

^^thanks for the heads up

^thanks for the kind words :)

I'm planning to do a practice race tonight around 9PM EST, to figure out tire longevity and my fuel strategy.  Also gotta dial out a little bit of push on turn in.  If anyone wants to join in just look for my dot!

Out of around 9-10 people that said they would make the race only 4 people showed up (including me).  That being the case we (being everyone that did show up) voted to reschedule the event in hopes that we can get a decent crowd together this time.

Nobody really voiced a complaint about the 16th when I proposed it, so let's try to do this again! ^-^

My shifter arrived the other day, I just haven't hooked it up yet.  I'll try to get that taken care of and see if I can still drive after a 3-month sabbatical.
