Did Bruce get the cage sorted out yet?  TCorry and I were getting ready to assault the car with our torches, pitchforks, miter saws, tube benders, notchers and welders just to make sure that car sees the track.

Chris is handling most of the mirada prep right now. Will prob get brought over to south haven next week. We are looking at ordering up a cage from some place that Pagel from Lemons recommended. I will know more tonight. She will be there. I still have to prep integra after the Colorado race we just ran, so it's going to be tight. Bayley, Brett  can you guys send me your phone numbers. I'm sure I have them somewhere but need to put in my phone.

Re: Who is in, Gingerman 2 14'

I have a manual bender with a 1 3/4" die and el cheapo notcher all mounted on an easy to secure pedestal.  Let me know if I need to bring it to the track as I have to get a couple of things to make it easier to manage when not anchored to my driveway (you basically park a car on it).

We want to be there, but have to find a junkyard LF hub, redo the exhaust and de-tangle about 500' of wiring still sad

New theme...no go.  I may have to put it on the Volvo wagon or strap it to Wally's chest.

The irony is, we will have TWO Floridians driving on our team this time.  Thinking about putting a seat heater in the Saturn so they do not cease to exist.

Frankly, I'm feeling I will likely get sunburned that weekend.  Packing my cool suit for sure.

Extra! Extra!

I asked the track, the gates will open at 3 pm on Thursday the 16th. They will close at 11 pm that night.

I look forward to seeing everyone.

Re: Who is in, Gingerman 2 14'

will THE WONDERMENT CONSORTIUM bring home the MIDWEST REGIONAL TITLE  and the NATIONAL DRIVERS' CHAMPIONSHIP?!

PERHAPS! , but not bloody likely.

I also found out that two new teams have formed from former WONDERMENT CONSORTIUM alumni (there's a joke about my leadership skills in there somewhere, I just know it), so the extended WONDERMENT CONSORTIUM family will be clogging apexes near you in less than 2 weeks!

Which model bender? I might have a a really, really, bad idea.

Re: Who is in, Gingerman 2 14'

Hey guys,

  I need a tachometer. The oem one failed, and I don't want to spend $60 to have an aftermarket tach expedited to.me.

Does anyone have a used aftermarket tach I can buy at the track? Or one I can borrow for a weekend?

Thanks!!!
