    I retract my previous statement.

    Looks like my first weekend will be the F1600 Series at WGI in June.

    Need more open wheel cars to run with.

    No late-entry fee if anyone wants to show up!

    Pro IT will be there too!

    Hi
    I haven't seen JD Kings name on the list. He usually does this event.
    Is he racing this year?
    Also, do you think that because the car counts are so far down in groups 1 & 6 that they will combine run groups?
    If so, can they do it before the actual race day or have to wait until registration?

    Haven't heard anything about JD being there.
    I spoke with DA yesterday. They will prob combine both open wheel groups into one, unless we see a significant entry increase before the event. Dunno if we move in with 1, or group 1 gets moved in with us.

    Do you know if they will make the change of groups before Sat am?
    I have tires on order and if we are G1, I'll never be able to get them mounted before the session.
    This means I'll have to get them to Northeast on Fri.
    I'm voting for us to stay as 6 and wings and things move.

    Being in "Wings & Things" I like the idea of getting out early in G1 as I have a flight to catch.

    I'll be there as crew with my trusty 82 VD. I've been replaced with a new and younger driver. As long as he makes my car look good, I'll let him keep racing it!

    Greg, I was looking forward to racing with you! At least I'll see how my car does.

    Default Pocono double shuffle

    Hi
    I got an email from Terry Roberts, Registrar concerning the the combination of groups.
    FF, NCF, FV and F500 are now part of race Grp One.
    This means our first session is scheduled for approx 915 after Pro It.

    Default Good day for fishing

    You know the old saying, "Even a bad day of racing is better then a good day of fishing". Well when I got back from Pocono the first thing I did was go find the rod and went out to the garden to dig up some worms.

    Hi Ed:
    From what I saw all weekend, you definately didn't have much fun.
    If it is any consulation you seemingly were blindingly fast when you were on track or else I'm incredibly slow .
    Anyway, I hope that you got all the bugs sorted out.
    Cheers,

    Since I didn't go out for the second race on Sunday I watch it from the tower. Looks like you had a good dice going and got the win at the line by a foot or so.

    Default Pocono Dbl

    Ed:
    I had a great battle all race long with Allan V. It was racing as it should be. We both gave each other room and were trading positions all over the course.
    We were racing for second spot. As it turned out, he passed me on the front straight just as the one lap sign came out. I think we both knew at that point I had the tactical advantage. Stuck with him throughout the course and held the draft just long enough on the front straight to make the move as we both approached start finish. You saw me best him by barely a nose.
    In NCF Jim MacNicholls took first and had his own battle going on with a FF further up in the group.
    Regards,
    Greg
