Hmm...4/27 is a Thursday. I'm not sure I'll be able to make it but will keep it on my radar.

It will be good to be able to run at that time time but I doubt if the BRZ will be ready and there is the bit about taking off on a working day too.

Sounds like excuses....I was sure you were going to be sick that day or have a doctors appointment you forgot about.

Actually I may be scheduled for a sudden bout of sickness on that day

Checked out my early season (April) options.

Since I have the highly tentative plan run VIR April 7-9 with the MGA, that leaves me with Monday, April 24 with SCDA at Lime Rock and Thursday, April 27 with rud motorsports at Palmer.

I'm leaning to Palmer on the 27th since I've never run that track with the S (not sure I really want to, though). Since Shiv is already signed up, that will make two. I'll register this week unless someone wants me to start the season elsewhere.

I'll be at the SCDA Car Control event on 4/24. I'm also planning to sign up with Rud since Shiv, Greg and you are leaning towards that.

I am already committed to coach for RUD on 4/27 so that is a definite for me. Not sure I will bring the race car as it will most likely be a busy day for me.

This after market TPMS system looks like it will be great for on track use. If it shows tire pressure in real time, then I think it'll not just be useful to see at what pressure the tires work best, but it should also give an instantaneous read of tire pressure as soon as one comes off of the track. I'm considering purchasing this - anyone have thoughts or comments??

I received a note from Scott Marlow of RUD motorsports stating that they have not roll bar restrictions - see Below.

"Greg can you reiterate on the post that we have no restrictions on roll bars, as long as the track sees fit to let you on we are cool with it?"
