Car is still $600.  So with 4 drivers, $1300, not counting transponder....

Why do we even still do drivers fees. Just charge my team a flat rate with all of those fees or charge a driver fee for each driver at the race so they can then drive w/e they want. We drive multiple cars per race, it is a pain in the ass moving people around to put 4 on each list. Plus those drivers sometimes take stints in other cars.

Road freaking Atlanta!!!!! 

That is all.

Bowling Green will be a little more of a haul for us than Barber, but for a new track I'm willing to do it.  Road Atlanta is totally doable, and we are so there!

Re: 2017 Schedule.. and Bowling Green is on it.

No ECR. sad Was I the only one who kinda liked ECR?

ADORE the new MSR-H Spring patch, though. Anyone who shows up with a credible SLAB deserves a GOOPF card, IMHO.

Road Atlanta is hella butt tempting. MY BALLS ARE ANYTHING BUT "PETIT." (#AvengeBallast, again.)

Re: 2017 Schedule.. and Bowling Green is on it.

Anyone that can make Road Atlanta and doesn't is crazy. Such a fun and challenging track. The first time you are flat as you drop down 100-ish  feet through T12 will be a moment you remember. And don't get me started on T1. Many  think T12 is the most challenging and most "thrilling" but if  you really nail T1it is much more so than T12. So much fun!!

I like ECR.  I suspect track surface condition was the reason it is not on the schedule.  We did not mind it a bit, a bump here and there did not cause us any concern.  Going to Houston twice is a haul from DFW.

Re: 2017 Schedule.. and Bowling Green is on it.

I agree ECR was a great fun.  MSR is flat and somewhat boring - we will likely do MSR in November and make the haul to Barber in February as heard a great track and only about 10 hours from Houston!

As MSR in May is going to be a bit warm! I would prefer to race in cold than warm!

I am disappointed Lemons couldn't put together a difference track to replace ECR than two MSR.

thanks,

Every time someone mentions Hallett for Lemons I can only think "Is there a different Hallet"?  Each time I look it up and it is still the same (with much better condition paving) from when I ran there in the early 1990's.  Fun track but no way to do 80+ paddocks OUTSIDE the track and no tunnel from inside to outside capable of handling an ambulance.

Re: 2017 Schedule.. and Bowling Green is on it.

Regarding Houston, one year they ran us reverse direction.  That changed everything about the track.  They need to do that again for one of the 2017 weekends.

Agreed!

I like MSR, and my team plans to do both since it's practically in our backyard, but anything to distinguish the races and keep it from getting old would be appreciated.

Re: 2017 Schedule.. and Bowling Green is on it.

So what race is possibly going to be a full 24hr if any?

Re: 2017 Schedule.. and Bowling Green is on it.

Very excited for Bowling Green.  As a resident of northern Kentucky it's nice to have a race in the same state.  Plus I get a second chance after missing Mid-Ohio a couple of years ago. (This is as a spectator of course - no money or time or experience for now.)

I was discussing it with a Rabbit-racing friend who was curious which layout will be run.  Any ideas?

I'll make it to an actual race one of these days.  Until then...

If we get enough entries and I expect we will then the full track!
