Re: Team roll call for MAM-Omaha

The Lowbrau Porsche is almost ready.  Street testing is going well, if only we could figure out the witchcraft that is dual carburetors.  Oh well another beer and we will have it figured out, if we don't fry the transmission first.

Re: Team roll call for MAM-Omaha

Anybody know what re-fueling will be like, are we allowed cans in the paddock, bulk tanks in the paddock, do we need to use the onsite pumps only

Re: Team roll call for MAM-Omaha

Usually you won't get official word on this until the driver's meeting the morning of the first day of the race. It really varies from track to track.

Re: Team roll call for MAM-Omaha

I called the track, they acted like it was up the the Lemons group to decide.

Re: Team roll call for MAM-Omaha

Just noticed MAM is also hosting what looks to be a rather large drag racing event this weekend.

Could get interesting if they let us out there between sessions

We will be the "rolling temporary barrier", please don't hit us... as the rules state,

6.4: Touching a Temporary Barrier: Physically contacting a cone, tire barrier, or any other temporary structure placed on the track by the LemonAid Team is an automatic Lousy Driving Offense With Extreme Prejudice. (You don't even want to know what that means.)

Re: Team roll call for MAM-Omaha

Will anybody be there early enough to help me install my car's harness? I haven't installed a harness before and I'd like someone present who knows what they're doing.

We'll be there first thing Friday morning.  We could help if you needed it... Make sure you have all necessary grade 8 hardware, etc..

Re: Team roll call for MAM-Omaha

We plan on squatting our RV in a Walmart parking lot thursday night, and will be at the track early friday as well.  I can help with harnesses as well. We will be in the red firebird.

Re: Team roll call for MAM-Omaha

We'll be arriving tonight around 11PM, but staying at a hotel.  We have no RV.  Just military issue cots that we could put up in our trailer... Nah... That ain't happening. 

We'll be there bright and early on Friday.

Anyone else gonna pay the $120 to run some laps tomorrow?
