Never seen them renting them before. I could bring an extra helmet for someone who may need it. I got my motorcycle helmet & also my dirtbike helmet. They are both allowed on the track.

Pat,
Looking at your sig I think you and I will be a very good run on motor. You'll definitely destroy me on spray. Would you be interested in a friendly run all motor?

Joseph.

I was there but I didn't see any Ls1tech members. The only LS/LT powered vehicles I saw were an SOM SS, a silver Z28, a sliver LT1 TA, a black LT1 Camaro and a red LT1 Camaro..The only other group out there were a bunch of 5thGenCamaro members..

I was there. I got there just about when they opened. I had a red 02 camaro with Camaro in white on the windshield. I only stayed for a couple of hours though. One of my friends I was with (a red cobra convertible with 5 spoke CCW) had some clutch problems so we just decided to head back. It was crazy hot too. I want to go to RSD's sometime soon though & maybe it won't be so hot out!

You guys probably left before i got there.

I believe the next RSD is on the 21st of September. If it's not another 80 plus degree day, i'll probably be there.

Come to think of it, i did see you and your buddy make a couple of passes. Had i known you were tech members, I would have stopped by to sa Hi and probably ask for a run. My TA was parked on the side in front of my buddy's sonic blue Cobra..

Yeah the weather didn't help with the track atmosphere at all.. The pits were pretty much empty by 4:30...There was virtually nothing to run against..

Yeah I like hitting GLD often in the Camaro beater, but the DA looked crappy and I couldn't envision running any new bests.

I'll be going a lot when it starts getting <60F by 7pm.
