Greetings gang 'o gearheads;
I am crossposting this from the Vintage Race list. VARAC is throwing down
the gauntlet...
I see they are also hedging their bets by copying Keith Files. Keith, do
you think your mates can handle something like twice the track time they
got at Mid-Ohio? <grin> Can we keep your cars in one piece that long??? <
I was chatting with the organizers of this VARAC event at the Glen last
week, they really sold me on the idea. I am planning on running this event.
Know several others that will be there as well.
From everything I have always been told about this event, the treatment
the racers receive is the complete opposite from Mid-Ohio.
