Got the car running today. The closest thing to a v8 supercar that I've ever heard, the bellow would make big blocks shake in their boots. Darn thing has unfortunetly has spun a BIG END!!!!!!!!:(
Not over until its over but things are definitely looking grim. Happened while braking cam in, was revving beautifully and then all of a sudden just started to stutter and locked up.

What happens if it gets rained out after you have paid? Do you just get a credit for another week?

the infield has a huge area under good light for you to do what you need

if your car goes in on a trailer it can be towed into the infield as well

i am not to sure if you have to pay parking fee for the tow vehicle ....sorry
