Hi Joe,

I can't seem to find the dates for this event can you post them? Don't say Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

What rules are in effect for this and were can I find them?

Thanks,

Joe

I added the dates above. The threads announcing this had all the info for some time, Joe. Here are the links to the rules:

There has been a bit of interest in some "early-bird" practice time, so I would like to add that the raceway will remain open until 11 PM on Thursday the 10th.

Okay, here we go:

Your pit pass will be $10 per day. If you pay upfront on Friday for all three days then your pass for the weekend is $25.

Entry fees for all races except GT Coupe are $15.

Your entry fee for GT Coupe is $25. This includes one TSR motor. You may purchase an additional motor for $10.

I think Jail Door is merely a fun race as it was at the R4.

Entry fees for the Jail Door races are going to be $10.

To add a little twist:
Anyone who wishes to pre-pay in advance for all five races will have $10 deducted from their total. So by pre-payin for all five races you will in a sense be running the Jail Door races for $5 each.

Anyone who wishes to pre-pay for all five races can do so upon their arrival Friday, June 11, right up until tech opens for the first race.

So if we pre-pay the pit pass, plus all five races, the total should be $90 for the entire weekend, is that correct? ($25 pit pass plus $65 for the race entries).

Sounds like a good deal to me.

And if you make that a flat $100 you get to hang out with Jersey john outside for 15 mins or until we get shot at, whichever comes first.Posted Image

Yup... it's the full RetroPalooza logo on one side and sponsors on the other.

In case you haven't seen it, you have to go to Sonny's Website. There is a countdown to RetroPalooza, a great slide show of Retro East activities from the Championship race and other races ..and the best...the theme from the Godfather plays while you watch it!
