YoungCR Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Planning on spectating if anybody wants to join, it's only $10 to get in. andyhundley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris3 Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Can you get in free if you say you're "crew"? That's the free way in to spectate at NASA events if they try to charge you at the gate/registration. Merl could probably use help swapping tires or something... Have fun this weekend!!

Daggerty Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Does the 10 dollars get you pit access or just spectating? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merl Posted April 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 The $10 gets you access to pits. There are not a lot of spectators so you can get around anywhere on the track easily. @Boris, I think you have to be registered as crew with Chumpcar to get in free.

Boris3 Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 So how did the race weekend turn out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merl Posted April 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Pretty Good. We broke a front hub on Saturday morning but we were able to get it repaired by the afternoon so we were out of the running and finished near the bottom. Sunday went much better and we were able to finish 3rd in class and 8th overall on the day. Our fuel consumption definitely went up with having the aero on the car. Overall, a blast !!

Boris3 Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 Let's hear it for trackside repairs! Good job on getting the car back in the mix and on the podium in the Sunday race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
