OK - it is time for a new thread with this discussion lost in "VIR race results."
Nationals is an awesome event. Lots of track time, great world class venue, national coverage, big vendor participation…
Time is running out to sign up. Best estimates show 14 cars signed up as of now. If you are on the fence, do it now. Come on guys - especially the mid-at guys - Kappy, JP, Scott, Travis? I’ll be racing, so you won’t finish last!

You know I’m in, this will be my first opportunity to race against more than a couple of Spec E30’s at one of my favorite tracks. I can hardly wait. It will be good to put faces to screen names as well.
More good news for Spec E30 racers…

That makes 14, Damion will make 15. Who else is going, no Patton’s? And what happened to John Allen he dropped off the list?
Why doesn’t the Toyo press release mention SE30 as an eligible class? I could’ve sworn it did before. I’m assuming it’s just an oversight, but thought it strange.

Beautiful, actually if you don’t want to come that would be ok too ;), see you soon, that makes 16. 4 more for 20.
I’ve got good news for all you E30 drivers - I am driving the Pink Panther at the Nationals :ohmy:
They are in the process of changing my entry from AIX to E30 -
BTW - does anyone know what PT class the E30 falls into? I was going to run the car in PT and E30 to get more track time and possibly learn how to drive an E30 :evil:

Here’s what I came up with:
Base Class: PTF** (** = +14 pts)
28 pts = PTE
PTE is a great deal if you want more track time and we could have two complete E30 races at the Nationals B) B) B)

A legal Spec E30 should run in PTE unless you are bad with teh maths…
Well guys you can strike me off the list. Due to some unforseen house expenditures I will not be able to attend the Nationals at Mid Ohio. If it was a little bit closer and only for two days I could probably pull it off but as it sits right now I am out. Maybe next year:(

It is appropriate that Inspector Clouseau (sp?) is driving the PP
