I'll be there all day in garage #21. Swing by if anyone wants any line help or advice on how to make your cars faster.

Oh, and don't worry, if my Corvette looks like a Supermiata this weekend, its just your eyes.

That figures, I can't be there Jim.

You guys should make sure you stop by and talk to Jim. He is fast and of course one of our 2014 Corvette Challenge sponsors

I'm signed up in Red, but not for the challenge....

Jim, one of your races there earlier this year has been my main source of study on how to drive this track ... I will certainly be coming to say hi :-)

See you there,
Dave

On that page you can either click on the 2014 schedule to get to the register link or at the top left corner click on Speed Ventures to get to the regeister page.

Hey Jim:

I never saw that video until today. It looks like Marc Hoover almost took you out on Turn Three on the first lap.

Geez, Howie, nice last-minute post on this one!

I'll be there, but won't have the vette.

Here's another pretty good video:
