Putnam Paddock Thread - May 16th & 17th

#1

Looks like gates close at 7:45pm on Friday. Sean and I are aiming to be at the track around 7pm. Simon, when are you arriving? We should try to paddock all the SE30’s in the same area.

Anyone have a favorite spot?

#2

That would be great if you could save some spots, but might be hard to do. I’ll be arriving around 8am Saturday so I’ll probably be one of the last ones there.

Anthony Magagnoli is trying to drop off Friday as well - and I asked him to “try” to save me room for my HPDE car (no trailer for me). I’ll email him to make sure he sees this thread.

I am planning on rolling up early to get in front of the line that will be waiting for the gates to open. So I can try to stake a claim to additional space at that point possibly.

#4

They changed the gate closing time to 7:15, so I’ll TRY to make it Friday night. Might be tough, though. I’ll have friends there, either way, blocking out some spots for me and Dave. My only request to them was to be on pavement.

#5

I’m shooting for 7am Saturday. Just pick an area that isn’t underwater from all the rain. I have a 16’x20’ canopy to put up. Enough room for my car plus another. Do you still want the spot, Simon?

Also, I think the only parking options are gravel or grass.

First row of the paddock has a lot of paved space, but it goes quickly. Its when you get stuck in the back row you get relegated to gravel on one side, grass on the other.

Yes I’ll take it, if you can paddock as close to the others when you get there that would be great. I’ll call you when I’m close. We’ll probably end up all over the place :).

Wish I was going to be there to hang out with you guys but we had a death in the family yesterday so Kyle & Sean will have to carry the flag at Putnam.

Hope to see someone at Grattan. (Simon & Anthony can’t make it).

7:15pm will be tough. Sean and I are still shooting to set up tonight. We’ll aim for dry land and try to save as much space as possible.

Well, we made it. The track was open until 7:45. We rolled in at 7:20. We’re paddocked in the middle row with Anthony. Space is tight. Hopefully we can squeeze everyone into one area.
