Thanks for the kind words.
Speaking of Track Days, Z Cars, and Hallett makes me think of my favorite actor / race driver, Paul Newman.
Scoutman75 - is your car #33? Very Happy
Newman made a little history of his own at Hallett in his #33 280ZX GT-1
Here is an interesting article about it http://newsok.com/oklahoma-tie-newman-won-82-auto-race-on-hallett-track-quarreled-with-bikini-clad-official/article/3303833/?tm=1222536276?
and here is a youtube video of with the famous #33 at Hallett in 82' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0s8_fXQbD4Q

NO YOU DON'T (need new tires) Exclamation

This is NOT a competitive or timed event and ain't NOBODY goin' to chastise you for seeming "slow" if your tires won't let you hook it up.

Run the tires you've got so you can learn what you've got under you everyday. This is a Drivers Education event that is intended to give participants the opportunity to find out what they, and their car, can be expected to do when required.

The vast majority of drivers on the road today have NO idea of what they or their car can do when faced with anything out of the ordinary. Learning by "doing" can put you in a good position to avoid, or at least ameliorate serious hurt if things go bad in everyday driving.

Everyone from the Tulsa/NE Ok area that plans on caravaning to OKC.....

We're going to meet at the Quik-Trip on 3050 S. Sheridan and leave there by 6:15am. This should give us plenty of time to make the 7:45 opening gate at the track in OKC. You may want to bring a cooler, folding chair, camera, sunscreen....and whatever else you think you may need.

Due to the economic storm. The raceteam will not be running at hallett this year. So, since the sheriff training center is like 4 or 5 miles from me, I plan on attending all of them in at least the shiro( or maybe one of the racecars ) depending on whats running at the time.
