Due to the track not being complete, NORWALK HAS OFFICIALLY BEEN CANCELLED FOR APRIL 16TH.
The rescheduled Norwalk date is June 4th from 9-2. If you are currently on the Norwalk list and are unable to make the June 4th reschedule date please PM me and refund arrangements will be made due to the date change. Sorry for all the confusion with this guys, it's all out of our control unfortunately.

Well, I called Norwalk raceway to see if they would be open on Friday the 20th, because I know some people going there on that Friday, but I wanted to confirm they would/would not be open on Friday the 20th. Funny thing is I could hardly hear the lady talking because of all the damn cars going down the fricken track. Further more not only are they open Monday, but are open as I type for an all day test and tune. What in the hell is going on??? WTF!!!!

So, we could have had the rental and ran the risk of being rained out anyways and only ran 1/8 mile with turn around meaning less runs for everyone.
Instead, we opted for the backup date with hopefully better weather and a finished facility. I truely apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused.

It's OK Jason. We know you aren't messing with us. It was going to be too cold anyhow.
Leo, you are still getting your smackdown!!! I just have to wait a little longer to give it to you.

I for one apreciate all the hard work you put in to these rentals!!!!!
There are a million details and things that can go wrong.
IMHO you owe NOBODY an apology.
I think you made a great call 1/8 mile would have sucked.
As for the track hooking last oct I was there at the IDD rental and it sucked. They had to heat the track up with a blow torch and it didnt hook for ****. If we had ran tomorow The track would have sucked so I for one am glad.
Im going back to my shop I need to hook the computer and coolant lines up. I just got done bolting the K member up. Installing an engine ALONE without a lift is a chore.
