Thanks Noel. Are you in for the day ?

We need some more guys from the Skyline camp to even the battle. So far I have 9 EVO's booked in and only 3 GTR's. Hopefully over the next week or so the numbers even up.

Sounds like a plan. The EVO count keeps going up, those guys want to dominate the AWD class.

I am also going to run Motorkahna at the Feb 5 track day. I have converted my electronic timing system from lap timing to khanna timing.

I have a beam for the start, and another for the end. Timing at 1/1000 of a sec. Plus my big electronic sign will show the elapsed time live to the crowd.

ordered some rubber, sent my payment in paul.

looking forward to a great day.

Excellent. We need more GTR's. I have 15 EVO's booked on the day now.

Can't wait to see how the motorkhana goes as well. The idea is that inbetween runs on the circuit you can do a motorkhana run as well.
