But that takes away from what we said we wanted to do this year, and that’s put a car on the track and have a good time regardless. So, were going to show up with our hot garbage just looking to have some good competition, and praying for some good weather. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jer 3,397 Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 Starting with laps at Road America is tougher than other places because of the long lap. I believe they will indeed start with laps, just not sure how many. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TBH I expected you and the cheat code swap would be talk of the forum. I think your car is going to influence a lot of BMW swaps in the future. (NOT implying you are cheating, just that the swap weight adjustment would allow a K swap and I don't think that was the intent) I was actually evaluating trying to get an E30 13B renesis in under the same 50pt swap. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bill Strong 7,150 Posted September 17, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 holy crap. the emails about attending Road America are coming in fast. So the limit was upped to 100 cars. You have buddies that want to race their spec e30/e36/e46/944/miata cars? send them out to Road America! 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jakks 593 Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 Was going to be Bill and Doc doing the show at least. No broadcast from AMP. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slugworks Paul 1,787 Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 I don't think there's often been a full broadcast from RA as Paulie is normally driving. Same story last year, Bill did one solo but it was limited with no interviews. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TAlexander 133 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 We are doing a full show, minus the professionalism that Paulie brings. Yes, Paulie's driving but me, Bill, and Doc will be doing a show. 7 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
