Ask TA what he thinks about pre-mix and it's "Beneficial" effects on yall's funky saddle tank / fuel pump setup..

Signed up for Instructor / TTC on this one as well.

Really need to fix my computer sim setup and practice Roebling, even if it's gonna be a 600hp 1400 lbs 1967 F1 Lotus running on bias ply rubber with no aero..

1 oz of pre mix per gallon of gas equals to about 5 hp per racing beat. its repeatable and it is also under the curve. premix does that much sealing in the renasis. After racing beat found this out they stopped offering their omp mod.

Tried booking at the NASA hotel yesterday, and all they had left were rooms w/ 1 King and a sleeper.
OnRails and I are at the Ramada right off exit 102. Don't know much else about it, but it has its own restaurant and bar. Free breakfast.

Hah, reminds me of when Eric and i were traveling with the IT RX7. The guy code spells it out very clearly: Even if there is a bed big enough to turn a truck around on somebody is sleeping on the floor. Just the way it is.

never heard it put that way, but +1 on that.

Mr. Friendly from Birmingham might have felt differently, but that is his problem.

OK I give up. Does RR have 7, 8, or 9 turns?

This says maybe 8 or 9 : http://www.trackpedia.com/wiki/Turn_..._Raceway_track

This says 7: http://www.trilon.com/bapom/maps/map-roebling.pdf

Care for a roomie? I've got someone else coming too maybe, so let me check on that. A buddy was thinking of getting into these, but wanted to see an event first before forking over the cash.

What Silver said.
1 and 2 are 1 and 2 on every map. Double Apex.
3 is the big left sweeper. Maps all the same.
4 is right. Maps all same.
5 is either 5 or 5 and 6 on some maps. (sweep vs double apex)
Carousel is 6 on some maps, 7 on some, and 6 and 7 on some.
After the carousel, there is a bend to the right and bigger bend on to main straight. You can call that all just 7, or 7/8, or if 7 was counted as part of carousel, 8/9. Or just 8 if you dont count the bend.

Long winded I know. And probably more confusing. Everyone knows 1-5, carousel, bend, turn on to main straight. The numbers are
