Hmmm...how much time does a person have to spend working on building the car to actually qualify to drive it? HINT...I'm handy with a wrench

perhaps something along the lines of the SCC ultimate street car challenge, but leave out all the non-performance categories such as fuel mileage, emissions, etc...

I think sears or T-HIll would do the trick, sears would be very close for everyone ( especially you bay guys ) but I know its prolly expensive.

Try the Reno track. Some of the SECCS folks could help set that one up rather easily.

HA HA...Alex try to keep it at Sears or worst case scenario T-Hill. I agree with Nate, Button Willow is far and out of the way for the majority involved.

FYI...the WorldOne car (that was at the Buttonwillow event) just did a 2:00.41 on the #13 configuration (clockwise) at the Sport Compact Car/Super Street Time Attack, finishing 2nd in class and 6th overall.

Wow that's some great driving Gary!
So what time would that equate to if you were going counter clockwise and who/what car won 1st?
