Test and Tune - Nov & Dec (Weather Permitting)
 
Wassup gang! .... Iwas looking at the schedules at different tracks in the area to try to get in some test and tune runs for November and December and I came across a few tracks that are holding it until like the 1st week of December.

I thought I see if some wanted to see what their cars can due before mommy nature sets in and hang out and have some fun as well :D

Yes its gonna be a tad chilly but that will mean possibly some good ET's :D

I like hanging out at MIR, but their test and tune is a bit expensive for the session style runs they hold. It takes 4 to 6 hours just to run down the track four times. Most of the time I must leave after two runs. I like getting together, but hell, I can have you all over to my place for free...BYOB I guess...LOL!

I would be interested in trying out the Petersburg track. How do they run their test & tune?

:sm0:

The last time I went to VMP for a test and tune...it was a round robin type...they ran them back to back...you can run and come back and go again unless they had to do track prep and stuff. And they ran it all day long ....as for MIR ... I guess they do that pending on how many cars are there and that sessions crap is full of BS but now since the racing season is over ... might not be many cars out there holding things up.

Im gonna go and hopefully they will let us get some more passes in ... but definately Im going to VMP on the 20th :) ...shoot me a call :)
