Since I am not sure what everyone's actual name is I can only list those I have met in the past , but we have at least 4 TMO Members running at the Joliet , Illinois Racetrack in just a bit over a week. Nick Smither, fresh from a killer 4th Place Finish at the NASA Nationals will be running his GT350R Grey Ghost and I will consider myself successful if I can even get within 2 seconds of his times. Tracy Munday is signed up to do HPDEs and probably help the old man ( me ) with any minor adjustments I might need , just because he is a great guy. JD Krull will run his GT 350R in TT2 , and that puts TMO with two guys in Boss 302s and two in GT 350Rs -- nice parity, ha. Russ Lane, running A1 may have signed up since I saw him last ( he just finished running at the NASA Nationals also ), but if not JD and I will put the hammer on him -- he is another Central Region NASA member like the two of us are.
With Nick and I running ST2 , it will give me a great basis to see about where my BossS is in it's state of build compared to one of the most beautiful cars in the Class - sure I am biased towards his stunning GT350R! Still running the original Sachs shocks and a non cambered rear end, and these seem to be two of the major areas I should address. The Dealership has had a long standing relationship with MCS for Viper suspensions with unreal success , and Vorshlag loves them on the Mustang too, but my good buddy BS1 keeps telling me I need to go Penske. Torn in two directions on that decision, but obviously if I get a cambered rear end the choice there is simple --Cortex!
So, since there may be other TMO members coming for the HPDE, Time Trials , or Race, but I don't know your actual name, chime in so we can all get together in Joliet!
PS - wear your TMO T Shirts !!
