Default 2009 LTX Shootout date has been set

Saturday, May 30th 2009 Kansas City International Raceway (KCIR)

Well, it has been written in. Will not be totally set in stone until they make next years schedule in the next few weeks but they gave us this available date. I tried for June but it was booked, July is booked as well. This is the weekend after Memorial Day and will still have decent temps and a less chance of rain than April.

What do you guys think? Will this work?

UGGH! That is so far from San Diego!!! I really want to go! I am going to have my blower/cam, LT TD and all sorts of other fun time goodies added in by that time, and I really really want to go, but I guess that is not going to happen. Crap.

You should try to caravan with (OutlawZ) Jason Brisson. You have 8 months to save up for this trip! You do not want to miss it!

I'm in the military with a new baby on the way, can't really justify spending that kind of cash trailering my car to the midwest. I would love to go though. The only way I MIGHT go is if I get orders to recruiting and end up back in Chicago.

Are the classes going to be the same again? Can you repost them. I'd like to see if there's a way I could modify my build a little to fit it in a class.

There will be a few changes. We are working on that right now. Hopefully it will help you get in a class.
