Vincent,
We've only been twice, but both times the tech has not "pushed" for a back protector. We will be taking 2 or 3 for insurance in case they asked for it. Once again, you are more than welcome to borrow one of ours and save the $$$ for the dampner, kill switch, safety wire, fuel, lodging, food, entry fee.......come to think about, I don't know if I can afford to go again..LOL.

Vincent,
It's not very crowded there, shouldn't be any trouble finding anyone.
We'll be in a silver F-150 SuperCrew with a silver 12 & green 12.

300hp ...heh..nice. Id guess you could gear it as low as you wanted to. 18/40? 19/40?
Im at just under 220hp...and going for somewhere between 205 and 210mph with 18/44 gearing.

I normally pit in the "court" section of the pits.. if you've ever been you know what I'm talking about it's the paved portion of the infield so I have a place for my Dog to play without getting in anyones way. I too will have a canopy 10x10 (blue) with 2500 pewter crewcab silverado and green 12r. I haven't made any reservations yet- where are you going to stay? I normally stay in the Pine Acres Lodge along with the other racers but last two times there were a bunch of drunken people keeping me up until 3am so I think I'll try someplace nicer. Any thoughts?

Bergie, I reserved a room at the Hampton in? I think its like $58 night and 3 miles from the airport?
Ill check the Pine Acres thing out. Im pretty sure the Hampton will *deal* if we have enough peeps to get a block of rooms.

I'm open to that and I don't mind staying somewhere else however I may be forced into using the Pine Acres Lodge again because we're bringing the Dog with us and they didn't have a problem with that last time.. most hotels discourage pets over 25 lbs... ours is a 90# german shepard. I'll have to call around and see what's available...

I take mine (tent) down.. it takes 2 minutes. But I think some people with larger pole-type tents do leave them up.

I'd like to make it up there. Can someone go over what I'll need besides leathers/boots. What needs to be safety wired. Is a steering damper a must? How much does it cost/ how many runs do you get?

J_meaghe, here ya go... http://www.ecta-lsr.com/
Things I know of so far are:
-Steering dampner required
-1 piece leathers required (boots and gloves too)
-Snell 95 or better helmet
-Saftey wire brake bolts, axle fastners, oil drain plug
Some other things to consider are having the stick on type wheel weights vs the clip on type.
Have some suspension play because the track is kinda *rough*

You'll need a tethered kill switch too.
It cost $50 to join the ECTA for the year and $100 to register for each event.....it's worth every penny.
I'll supply the duct tape for the fairings!
