I'll be signing up this week, just working out the tow vehicle issue

The Turbo Spitfire will be returning for it's final challenge event. A little suspension work and some new tires will be the the only changes. 35th place in 2006, 13th place in 2007, going for a top ten finish in 2008......

Let's all pray for no rain this year!

I'm signing up this week too.

Nothing too radical this time- I'm bringing back a 323 GTX that made an appearance last year. Actually, I think both of last year's GTXii will be returning. Dollraves and I will be making up our own team.

I sent my registration info last week! I'm looking forward to the Challenge. And by "Challenge", I mean having the car finished....in 5 weeks. Good times

"The check is in the mail..."

Bringing the Omni GLH that i think i originally bought to run in the 2004 Challenge! ...Its about time i got my E36 M3 together!

5 weeks to deal w/ some 'simple' problems: Crossing the 1/4mi finish line @97mph and hitting the brakes only to have the pedal drop to the floor is not only a hairy experience, it also indicates that i may need to deal w/ my brakes. Also have a pin-hole leak in my radiator. and have to add a 5th injector to ensure a 13sec 1/4mi run...

Other than that, i think i'm set~! ...famous last words...

I should probably book a room at the inn, too....

Bringing our '05/'06 Mustang Boss 302 back one more time. It's a little lighter and a little prettier. (see my build diary) Hopefully it'll hold together for one more event.

Hmmm........

I have a V8 RX7 in my garage. I don't know that it's going to be together in time to make it. The engine is together but it's still sitting on the garage floor.

Having a baby in the house has greatly decreased garage time.

What's the last day to have my registration in?

We really want entries in by September 1st, but there is some leeway with that. As long as we have firm numbers by September 15, we'll be fine.

Paid entry.

I'm bringing a 1996 Neon Coupe. It might make the trip down, the trip back I'm giving it 50/50. I've got a really good shot at sub $1K.

Oh not to win anything, I'll just have less than a grand in it.

We're in! Team Frozen Nuts Racing is bringing a Toyota Celica Alltrac so rain would be a good thing!

Now just to register, complete the project and get a trailer hitch on my Pathfinder and we'll be set!
