49 days from today we hope to be parking our trailers in the hotel parking lot. Current plan is to arrive late afternoon on Wed 10/18. We are bringing fenders for Joey. Anyone else need stuff hauled down?

That is the up to date sheet.

I plan to arrive Wednesday night so I can be there for Thursday.

Just made our Hotel Reservation. Things are getting real. We may come a little early on Thursday to watch the parking lot build. (I did enjoy watching the cage go into last year's.)

The parking lot build is less ambitious this year but should still be entertaining. Looking forward to it.

We should be finishing detailing and painting the challenge car by the end of the weekend. Still want to do one more event to be certain that the car is ready, but....

We're booked to check in Wednesday and out sunday. Leaving Ohio Tuesday to not kill the kids doing 1000 miles in one day. Plan to spend lots of Wednesday and Thursday by the pool and being consultant on parking lot build.

Car is on track

Well, with just 6 weeks to go, I thought I'd better get to doing something if I was going to attend this year, so I recruited a team member, registered for the thing, and we got started stripping it down to see what we're working with.  It's got potential, but doesn't yet run.  And hopefully we find some of the stuff we need in the parts stash that came with it.  Now if hurricane Irma just doesn't completely ruin our work scedule, we might actually make it.

Time is running out and my motor is out of car and in a bunch of pieces.  So how many entries we up to now?

New territory for Team Alavanche, the car is pretty well ready to load up minus a couple little details and cleaning.

I'm about a week and a half from pulling the plug on the S10.  If it isn't running by then, any effort switches over to the Miata.

By this weekend I should either have the Riv gone and be digging into getting the Rampage I'll be getting if it goes running to take, or starting to tear down the top end of the Riv's engine to make sure everything is good to try upping its power without blowing it up on the track.

Right now Team Stampie is 50/50 on bringing a car. A lot depends on us having the spare time in the next weeks.

Hey I only get about 30-45 min a day before working a 10 hour shift. My car won't be pretty but should run.

 

Is there a fresh paint air freshener made ? Some will get the reference.

Feeling giddy from yesterday's progress I registered Team Stampie just now. We're currently the third newest car although I question the 2015 Ferrari.
