I read it how you do, but Mike Harmuth has had some conversations that =
indicate they may be waiving the entire entry fee.  Also, so far this =
invite has been extended only to folks who have an SVRA license or have =
run with them before.  Not clear that we are all eligible.

Anyone spoken with them or read it this way?

I can make money, but I can't make time.

    I received this from SVRA today. They're not my normal race group =
