Nice!! I will let him know. He might have his road race S4 ready by May which should handle the tight course better than the Vette.

Make sure you guys pre-register by April 10th for the discount and to have your passes mailed to you. This is something new this year. You won't have to wait in line or anything, just pop the sticker on and drive in. We will have goody bag and dash plaque pick up at a central location on the showfield.

If he keeps me out of 1st place AGAIN this year, Ill be quite upset... but i hope he brings it, a little friendly competition is always fun.

Ill be Instructing for the NICO Club people for AutoX so i dont know how often ill actually get to drive.. haha

Also, you only have to register your car, correct? Your passenger doesnt need to get a separate ticket?

Yes...you're right. Showfield registration (both judged and non) include gate passes for the driver and one other person. Sticker will be coming in the mail soon, so you won't have to deal with any lines - just drive on in and have fun!

If you are racing, than no. You should be able to park it in the pits with no problem. If you are not racing than you would need to park it in trailer parking, which you can purchase that space here during the show. Can't believe we are less than two weeks out......WOHOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!:yelrotflm
