Topic: 2023 'Shine Country Classic - Entry List & Tech Times

Alright kids, the 2023 season is about to get underway! Surely, you've all requested your residual values, assembled your budget documents, and given your cars great themes since there's been a break in the action...especially if you weren't at Road Atlanta. Would be a shame if you hadn't done those things and then got some poignant questions from judges Craig, Bob, and Eric about the expensive-looking parts on your heap with no explanation about their sources.

To wit: Volkswagen powered Mopar, Mopar-powered Mitsubishi, Mitsubishi-powered Mopar, Saab-powered Fiero, Mazda-powered Borgward, Honda-powered Hyundai, GM-powered Volvo (Yes, being shipped from California AND slated to race at Thunderhill two weeks later), a Ford Tempo, a Pinto, a Gremlin, a Mazda 929, a Mazda 626, and a Mazda 323-powered Festiva. Oh, and a five-car team with a Kompressor, a V12 S600, an R107, and the last full-size Monaco & Imperial.

But hey, I'm just a guy on the internet. [Higher-res version here; Excel version here]

Been working on prepping our car all day.  I believe the entry list is up a bit from last year.  Think it was around 108-110 last year.  Can't wait.
