We'll be going early in October again.

 

Oct, 4, 5, & 6.

 

This year's R4 Can-Am winner, Cap Henry, has said the dates don't conflict with his real car racing schedule, and will make a concerted effort to make his Sano debut.

I know the race is a ways off, Mike, but do you still plan on a similar schedule as years past with both flat track and King track racing?

There will definitely be Flat track races for both Can-Am and F1.
 
If anything gets axed in the interest of shorter days on Friday and Saturday, it will be the JK Spec classes on the King.

Hey Mike, I hope you're planning to leave the esses out for the Sano.

Racing the track for the 1st time without them this past weekend sure was a lot of fun. I think the out of towners will find the track a bit easier to get the hang of also.

The track will definitely remain "Esseless" for Sano 7.

 

I don't for see when I'll be switching them back.

Possibly never.

For the (esses less) Flat;

Flat track races will follow the King races on those respective days.

 

No JK Spec this year.

FK will be first, so the winner can have the option to run PD afterwards.

Likewise.

 

It'll be great having Cap and yourself at C/R.

 

Especially Cap with his short hair.

 

He looks about 5 years older with it. LOL

Cap,

Matt Bruce might have some competition this year, during parade lap announcements, for "most handsome man in Retro". :)

 

BTW, the genesis of you originally cutting it, was very nice.

LOL Matt automatically wins due to age!

 

Thank you, a lil boy that had cancer at the the race was the deciding factor for me to do it, before his treatments he had long hair like mine, and to see that lil boy's smile after mine was gone ment way more then the money raised to me.
