    I have never done anything like this, I had a few questions, Is my car fast enough to require a helmet 13.99, and would this event be a good one to start with?
     
  23. miloman

    miloman Retired Admin

    STi's, if driven correctly, will run 13's easy... at this event, you can get a ton of runs... so it will be a good one to start with

    registered :)

    Told a viper guy I met yesterday about this :)
     
  25. stlth664

    If you aren't sure, you are allowed one run down the track to see what sort of times you are making. If you are faster than 13.99 and required to wear a helmet, the ladies at the end with your time slip will tell you that you can't go again without a helmet.

    We had a lot of people say they have had an abundance of shirts from our events, so we switched it up this event and are having SETD tire pressure gauges made for those who pre-register. :)

    Sorry about the confusion. That hotel was posted because of our cookout the night before in Peachtree City. On the website I linked to all local hotels that are within a few minutes of the strip :)

    The Varisty caravan will roll out at 8:15am!!!! Make sure that you have already checked all fluids and are gassed up before then. Leading/organizing will be Dustin ... just follow his bike:

    Hey guys, just letting you know that I'm closing pre-registration first thing in the morning. :)
    http://www.southeasttrackday.com/register.htm

    I also got a black 07 STi to commit to coming to Silverdollar [this is the guy I was telling you about a while back, Milo]. His name is Dustin. So hopefully you guys will have a new member or at least can teach him a few things about his car!

    See you guys at Silverdollar!!

    ShaneSTi and I had coordinated this last time... i called him when we left the varsity... then called him when we were 10 miles from his exit... then at 5 miles... at this point, he was parked near the on ramp... then called him again when we were a mile away... thats when he got on the highway and drove in the slow lane... as we passed him, he merged into the caravan... :)
