Wow that's great news! Now I'm looking forward to it even more. The biggest bonus will be there's a decent chance you guys can help me fix my car if I break it again ;D

Nice. I'm at the Baymont Inn in Plymouth. Confirmed for 3 days in Group 1. Fair enough as I'd love to run somewhere new in my GT350.

I might be able to pull this off.

I was thinking the Glen too.......then I thought some more.......that's a lot of walls for a shiny brand new car Oh well nothing like breaking it in right.

You might want to get a hotel booked if you're thinking about it. They fill up fast and you can always cancel. The email I got from NW Shelby Club said registrations are ahead of last year and this event always sells out so keep that in mind. They do put a waiting list together and I think there's still a decent chance to get in if you wait until it fills.

As Steve said, I'm booked. Never been to RA before, really looking forward to it

All 3 days, Group 1. Couldn't get into the Osthoff, booked 52 Stafford in Plymouth.

If you're interested in doing some pre-reads on an S197 at RA, here are a couple of my favorite vids from last year's event.

Sounds good we're looking forward to it.

I am in as well and have registered, including booking at the Baymont. The hotels fill up early so be sure to get on that soon. Sounding like a great group will be showing up this year.

I have played around some recently on the iRacing system and it is nice that RA is one of the track options. Love driving the F1 car at RA as it is amazingly sticky.

I am looking forward to seeing your taillights as you whizz by me in the long straights with all that newfound horsepower

LOL - Your saying that reminds me that that HP is only is good as the driver... thus I will still be looking at your tail lights whizzing by.

With that said, the added torque I picked up should help some on the long climb up the hill on the front straight.

Good point. It will be a good place to take advantage of your new CJ intake.

Pete's father passed away two weeks ago, and add to that he has been very consumed with some projects of late.
