Hi Tom, you're in, just in case you missed my PM. Nothing you need up front. Tech cards will be handed out at the track. There are links posted on the PRP site for the rules, entry/payout, hotel info, and the parking map.

I think about 15-17. It's a good time, lots of racing. I'll get down there some time on Thursday, don't know if I'll make it in time for the Thursday gamblers.

Thanks for the links on PRP page the parking map and rules, they are nice to have this year. We really enjoyed the race last year.
We plan on rolling in late evening on Friday.


Most important, keep the shiny side up

ALL Trailers must be moved for IHRA Bracket Finals! Plus more...
10-18-2015

ALL trailers MUST be moved from their pit spots by Tuesday, October 27, for IHRA bracket finals. This includes if you are racing for PRP. ALL pit spots must be emptied. Parking will open when gates open at 8am, Thursday, October 29. For racers coming in Wednesday, you can line up to come in, but you will not be able to proceed to your team pit area until Thursday morning (again, this includes Team PRP). The entrance directly off of Route 22 east (formerly known as the motocross entrance) will be used, and has a lot of room to line up trailers if needed. Time trials start at noon on Thursday, 2 sessions, followed by the early bird gamblers race.

Updated schedule link:

Team PRP members - email Pam - pamela@pittsburghracewaypark.com - if you would like to order extra bracket finals tshirts, or to get it as a hoodie. Also, if you are on the IHRA bracket finals roster, and unable to race next weekend, please let us know as soon as you can.

I haven't heard anything to indicate they would not. Weather might cause a delay tomorrow, but that looks like it. Friday and Saturday look good.

Yes, Keith drove well all day. So did Michael Wood all year; he was our Saturday winner, and ended up winning three of our eight races and our season championship. Congrats to Keith (sixth place in points, one point out of fifth) and especially Mike on an awesome weekend and season!
