JP Montoya's entry of a Dodge Charger Nextel Cup car has been rejected.

Quite a few more cars are needed to ensure a FF/CFF only race group. If you are not on one of these lists but should be, please let me know. Enter early and enter often!

I'll be there , as well.

[Tom Tipsword]

So, Bill, are you bringing the tour bus?

[bill ehrlinger]

Hi Tom,
Looking forward to race y'all again. No tour bus this year. Actually, it was a borrowed tour bus. Thats the best kind ya know. Also, Lindstrand installed two new half shafts. As we later found out, it was the right axel that snapped going into #6 at Blackhawk. Should be much faster now, with both working. Right? See ya at RA.

I think you will like it a lot! I will never forget my first time racing there in 1998 in a 80cc enduro sit up style shifterkart. The track seemed huge and we were flying down the backstretch hill. Lots of fun!

Where is everybody going to be pitting at??

Andrew:

Chicago Region is roping off an area in the West Paddock for the EWC. Details will be posted at registration.

Since there is plenty of space, the other formula car series (FV/FST and FSCCA) are welcome to join us. Get to know these guys. We need everyone with an open wheel race car to make a formula-car only restricted regional work.
