Event starts @ 8AM. Earlier you get there, the more practice you get
Ok guys, the president of the club, Markanda needs an approximation of how many guys are coming. The reason behind it is because the Big Apple Circus will also be there at Cunningham Park so we need to block off our lot so it won't be overrun by trailers and elephants! Mark is in meetings with the "higher ups" and the circus to try and resolve the area crowding and rope off our section.
0800 - (8am, lol) Area is open. I will be there and will guide you where to park and setup.
0800-1030 Driver registration - Practice
1030-1100 Driver meeting
1100-1130 Qualifying
