July MAGNA get-together & MAGNA Points Series Race #2: Sat, July 14... - Page 2

J Banning · 07-11-2007, 12:04 PM

Yes, as Scott mentioned you all should plan on getting there early. I'd only expect to get 2 test runs MAX before eliminations start. This is NOT the time to tune your car. If you want to try and do well, I'd suggest making your first run and as long as nothing is wrong, make your second to see how consistent it is and use those numbers to set your dial in.

See you all Saturday morning & good luck!

**MAGNA PIT SPOT**

The MAGNA pit spot will be in the usual location - along the fence at the end of the track, near the end of the bleachers.

Look for a big black enclosed trailer, the MAGNA banner, and a big red tent with a turbo 6 on it.

Does anyone know when the gates are opening? Every time I call the track the line is busy.

I know the flyer says 9:00am, but given how crowded their schedule is I wouldn't put it past them to start running cars at 9:00 without telling anyone that the gates opened at 8:00am.

FLR · 07-11-2007, 06:22 PM

Wish I could go.

Car is in no shape to be beat on. Gonna do the rear main seal, oil pan gasket and valvesprings here in the next few weeks. Also needs a driveshaft & u-joints, gonna take care of that this weekend. Gonna be in MD delivering some stuff. Cant be two places at once. Have fun y'all.

Raist103 · 07-11-2007, 06:58 PM

UPDATE: I got through and the gates do indeed open at 8:00am

I wish I could, but it just wont be able to happen. I got to drive to MD tommorow to deliver some stuff, and then I'll probably work on the car. I shouldnt even be driving it, realisticly. Oh well. Have fun and dont break em guys (unless your name is Don)

I made it in from Michigan (planning to race as long as a test-n-tune goes well tonight)... So NO LAME EXCUSES from anyone else! If you have family obligations I of course respectfully understand...

Looking forward to it...

Good thing I tried to put the T on the trailer today because I found out I had a dead battery. Replaced that and now I am all loaded up and ready to roll. Should be there by 8am.
