Mike,
Sorry to hear you can't make it Mike. We sold out of Track Day spots a while back, so you might be in luck if someone was fencesitting before we sold out Track Day and is still wanting to go. This is their only chance now and there are no other cancellations but this one for Track Day from you. The other two got snagged up quick.

Folks,
Track Day is SOLD OUT, FULL, NO MORE SPOTS AVAILABLE. All funds are committed. We are not offering any more spots for Track Day registration.

In this special situation, we will honor and exchange Mike's spot first come first served to the lucky person, but do it quick. Note, this is three day gathering for $100, a full day of instruction and track time on a new 4.3 mile track for $150.00! +2 lunches at $25. Normally $400 just for Track Time alone at this Track. This is only available to WSCB registered attendees. You can't get track time or instruction for this anywhere. Once its gone, its gone.

Contact Mike if you want it, but don't wait, reg materials need to be transferred and get that room reservation # from Mike too if you don't have a room. Good Luck Mike!

Please snag some stock heads or whatever...be there.
I am really looking forward to meeting you and seeing your beautiful black roadster.

Black, right?

It's not the heads. The company that built it didn't seem to really care about the workmanship. The pistons were hitting the crank and causing pieces to break off and run thru the bearings wiping out the bearings. The block needed to be line bored because the bearings were not wearing evenly. The dampner was loose on the crankshaft and wobbled because it didn't fit and had to be replaced.
My new engine guy spent all day Friday trying to get the new pistons to clear the crank but the machine shop closed before he could get everything in to be rebalanced.
The motor has to get put back together and get back in the car and then it has to go back on the dyno to get tuned.
It's not worth it to rush to make the event. I'd rather have a motor that runs right.
I'd really like to meet up a check out your ride also
