Other unique / interesting facts: Oval expert ???
I will as soon as I have them finalized and in the order I want them. Until then I had to get the new rules and procedures out so people could read them and sign-up if interested. I already have a couple combo's picked but still waiting. Anyways, after extensive testing at the oval I have decided not to add it to the series. The smallest bump will make a race boring to watch and there would be the need of custom rules. Such as we would probably need to remove Pass-to-Win... I don't know! You will see the combo's soon enough.

Well in the first two days of actively accepting sign-ups I must say I wasn't expecting this much of a response. I surely hope the sign-up vs show-up rate is much higher than last time and it seems it will be. Regardless I may need to add some sort of rule that allows first come, first serve to the events so sign-up now to avoid the lines!

OMG I'm gonna suck!!!

I won't be at the practice event, as it clashes with the Kyoto 500 (which, it turns out, I might be able to get to )

BTW, it also clashes with IGTC guys
The test even is not mandatory although HIGHLY recommended for testing the system, learning about it, and all of that other stuff, as well as to practice the MRT which will be an evident event whether people practiced or not. NONE of the other events conflict with IGTC or things that I know of, at least it didn't when I made the schedule.

I might run off from the 500 for 20 mins or so and join you
