Is this "chase for 8" gonna be at the TFB v. SAFBA shootout?

If so, I may see you there if I can get my 3rd member by then.
I'm sure I'll be seeing mostly taillights and shoot though!

I remember going to a race and seeing your car but you weren't their because you wife was in labor. Guess thats one of the few acceptable reasons for missing racing, car looks awesome though, has come along way.
