ColinO Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 (edited) Okay there's been a lot of talk about you guys trekking down to Atlanta for this, but so far nobody is signed up in Spec3. I'm signing up this week (now that I ran this weekend without mechanical issues) and Sean will be signed up soon. RA is a great track and if you haven't been there you will be hooked. They say this event fills up and I'd hate to be the only two Spec3's there. Edited November 4, 2011 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDizzle Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 http://nasa-se.com/2011Dec02.php Ahh I now see the entrant list on the left. I'm blind. Also, does NASA-SE have a tire supplier/mounter similar to how NASA-MA has Phil's tire there for track side support and mounting of tires on wheels? Or a better question is SASCOSPORTS (the tire supplier) at the NASA-SE events with mounting equipment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColinO Posted November 9, 2011 Author Share Posted November 9, 2011 So it looks like five of us (post if I'm wrong on this); Myself Sean Mike Mark Peter I will be there on Thursday to drop off the trailer. I've managed to combine this into a business trip to Atlanta with meetings on Thursday and Monday. (It might be wrong to include the miles on my expense report though) Anyway, if you do the enduro and need some support let me know. I may not be able to be full time help on Friday, but I can definitely pitch in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDizzle Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Looks right Colin. Last time I was at RA I stayed in a hotel...does RA allow camping? If so, how are the showers/bathroom facilities in comparison to say....VIR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinO Posted November 15, 2011 Author Share Posted November 15, 2011 I haven't camped at RA and unless it's going to be unseasonably warm I'm going with a hotel for this one. The facilities are pretty nice, but I've only been on the outside paddock. Racers paddock on the other side and I think the facilities are up on the hill. Can't personally vouch for those.

ColinO Posted November 28, 2011 Author Share Posted November 28, 2011 Mike, you still planning to join us? They added four Spec3's to the entrant list this weekend and I noticed you were missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbgeek Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I'm on the fence as to hotel or camping. Is there power in the paddock? I would be running a heater and sleeping in the truck... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinO Posted November 28, 2011 Author Share Posted November 28, 2011 There is power and you are welcome to camp in my trailer. A portable heater doesn't do much in there when it gets below 40 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbgeek Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Thanks for the offer, but a small space heater will cook me out of the SUV in the dead of winter... and a twin inflatable mattress fits perfectly in the back. Now Stephanie MAY come, and so doing dictate a hotel room. We shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDizzle Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Yea, I'll be there. I'm an idiot and got caught up with stuff and forgot to sign up 10 days prior....so I had to pay the extra 50 to sign up late. I'm planning on sleeping in Mark's trailer for the weekend...Peter - I was told there is no power, so you have to bring a generator (hence why I can't sleep in my suburban). Colin - when do you plan on arriving to the paddock? We should be there Thursday evening, and we will need to get a spot as close to pit wall as possible for the enduro.

ColinO Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 There's power on the TT/DE paddock side and I thought I remembered power drops on the racing paddock. Maybe not? My rig has a generator so either way we'll have some power available. I'll drop off the trailer around noon on Thursday, but I have to head out right away. I'll look for a spot where I can cone off room for the five of us near the pit wall without encroaching too much on other zones (since Spec3 didn't get an assigned area).

dbgeek Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 travel safe, guys. I'll be there late afternoon tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinO Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 Okay, I'm pddocked near the base of the foot bridge. Coned off room for five next to a camper. There is a power drop here but I haven't checked if it's live. The pro teams took most o the spec E30 space so it's a little crowded here.

Members Jon M. Posted December 5, 2011 Members Share Posted December 5, 2011 How can you guys be so quiet? I see that Colin got his first win. Some blew a radiator hose, but was following the rules of running water only. Race finishes were by mere seconds. Come on, recaps already!!!! Videos too!!!

dbgeek Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Some of us work during the day The Spec3 crew had a great time... occasionally putting in a few laps, too. I finally figured out the track by the race on Sat, but was too patient with attempting a pass on Colin. The Sat Race was cut short by the red flag caused by that radiator hose. Then there was that whole weight thing... I'll post the long version later. My nephew got a hold of my my camera at the end of the Oct event, and apparently put it in Macro mode, making all of my Sat video out of focus. I fixed it for Sunday. The Sunday race was very crowded to say the least. I have video, but won't have time to convert and edit until later in the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
