The Runoffs coverage starts at noon Tuesday. Some of the best racing you'll ever see!

What track are they at this year, they are no longer at Mid Ohio right?

I can't wait to see how the Solataces do...

Interesting, I'm assuming SCCA will run the big 2.5 mile Grand Prix configuration.




[I]ROAD COURSE INTRO
The versatile road course at Heartland Park Topeka allows for five distinct and challenging layouts that can be tailored to fit various types of events. Road course configurations range from a short course of 1.5 to 1.8 miles to the full 2.5 mile Grand Prix layout.

The first race ever held at Heartland Park Topeka was on the road course, the Camel Grand Prix, in August of 1989. Ten racers on NASCAR

Hey Triple H....

Come out to Kansas and we will show you the track!

One of my friends crews for Cindy Lux - she drives a Viper in T-1. Came in 2nd at the Runoff's......when she was passed on the final lap by a Corvette. Very exciting racing!

http://www.cindilux.com

She has some pretty cool video on her site. On the link above look under "Behind the scenes" at the top.

On another matter, what the hell are you doing with a Red Titan pulling a Yellow S2K!! "Color Klash"!! Nice look trailer dude!!

Joe

Thank you for not posting results. I love the Runoffs. Best road racing there is. Sadly they moved from Mid-Ohio which had been just a day away for me. Normally I follow what's happened on the daily updates via the internet but this year I totally lost track of the dates and don't have a clue who won anything. Funny, it just hit me that I'd missed it all, went to the SCCA site, and saw they started showing the races last Tues. It's on my schedule for tomorrow from noon to 3PM.
