Open Track Challenge starts tomorrow.

May 11th, 2002, 06:04 PM

Four ClubZ members, Glenn, Joe, Lee and I, in Glenn's and my Zxes are taking on the Open Track Challenge starting on this Sunday. The OTC is a 1500 mile long 7 day endurance Time Trial, starting in Pahrump (near Las Vegas, where I'm typing this message now), moving all the way north to Thunderhill on Thursday, and then back to Las Vegas for the final race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway next Saturday.
I'll be posting updates to our daily diary, results, etc on my web page every evening here:

As I mentioned above, we are in Pahrump now, yesterday's drive of 530'ish miles was fairly uneventful, except for the highly unexpected bumping into a SoCal SE-R Club fellow in Barstow that I met at the Streets of Willows event back in February.

Anyway, if you are interested, book mark that link above and hit reload every day. Thanks all.

We've certainly had better days, but the pressure is on and the M3s are starting to break, so keep your fingers crossed...

Tell Glenn to call me for a big track suspension set up. I gave them a tight track setup.
