I just registered last minute after being shafted from an event next weekend up here in DC.  I was supposed to have a reserved spot since I was going to sign up as a new member, but since they handle up registration through email, they sort of forgot.  Anyways, I'm on the waiting list now for this weekend and don't really want to drive two hours with the tire trailer and not actually be abel to run.  I've run a ton of event with vmsc in the past and I'm sure it's no problem but I just wanna make sure.

don't take my word, but there's 100 spots and only 100 people signed up.  It looks like you're in the clear.

I like your dyno tuning results; unfortunately I also cannot guarantee you a spot but assume you'll be fine.  It is a new venue though which introduces a little variability from the norm.

Make sure you bring a piece of wood to protect the blacktop from your jack (NEW RULE).

Thanks, it was a diy project that made me miss the complete autox series last season. So not only am I a year out of practice; I have about 80rwhp more than I'm used to.

Cool...I'm better than someone at something....I'm trying my best to miss two autox seasons to a diy project and so far I have 135 crank hp less than I'm used to.  Quite impressive results; I'm the mayor of looserville.
Cheesy

And I've got a turbo that needs rebuilding and two motors that need bearings.  I can see shooting for three years shouldn't be too hard.

Again, congrats on the project.  I hope to finish mine someday.

What are you working on?

And I never said I didn't go through my first engine on the first test drive.  And rebuilding the turbo while it was all dismantled, and then decided to buy a new turbo all together, and replacing the first intercooler I purchased, having to get the manifold rewelded.
