At one time I spoke with Craig Taylor. He said if he had a "course map showing elevation, course section lengths and turn radious'" he could pick a ball park starting set.
I couldn't get a elevation map at the time, there may be one available now.

I've got the same question... Gears Shenandoah... I know how to adj the gears ratios after we have data, but a starting point to load the gears in the box would be helpful.

Any suggestions for gearing, F/F with 9:31. Ran
RCCA gears last time there. Not sure on how you figure gearing for a track, I have been using jakes book, does not include Shenandoah or pocono
short courses.

keep up the hard work, we need all the drives there we can get, they have reserved us time for an open wheel only session, but we need 12 paid drivers.
looks like if you want to contend for championship you will have to be at this race, so please all sign up
thanks

I originially told Len we were a definate NO for Summitt, with the addition of this testing date, we are considering it.
If the car comes together on-time and work schedule does not interfer, the 93/95 FC Citation may make this event. Right now it looks likes 50/50.

ambrose, your car can't be that big, jusy bring all the pieces and we'll help you put it together Saturday morning. All the left out parts just mean you weigh less and can go faster!

Anybody with a remote interest in doing the TT with an open wheel car at Shenandoah, PLEASE go to the EMRA message boards and tack on your interest to Len's post for Shenandoah TT and open wheel cars..... again :) A.S.A.P!
Bob Hill says we need to have the numbers up early enough for them to give us our own sessions. These would be "passing allowed" sessions if we are all racers. That would mean we would get track time for practice at a TT price without having to run in a group with Mustangs, Corvettes and Trucks. What better practice time could we ask for?
