Misfit Toys at Gateway Saturday June 5

Thanks for jumping on this so quickly Tim and getting us signed as a group!
Steve, thanks for your help in making this happen and the additional information. (I'm going to ask for you to conduct a Driving Strategy workshop for track day! :cool:)

No mention about Snell rating or date on Helmets. I suspect this will become an issue and change before the actual event. The automobile Snell ratings include fire resistance that a motorcycle helmet doesn't have.

Cars MUST have radiator catch can (which most cobras don't)

FYI

Paul, do you have any Period Correct catch cans?? Mike
 
CSX7070 Complies and meets ALL requirements on the form! We be ready! (Well...after I put the entire rear suspension back in).
 
Tim, hope this helps WWTR (saw your post in STLCC)

It's not what you're looking for (incar 2 mile course) but you can see T2 turn in to T3 hairpin is tight. Old course you'd track out from T2 to the rightside on throttle but now early apex on T2 for T3 right hairpin. Early apex on T2 now shortens braking distance from T1 (big deceleration) to get car setup on left side of T2.

Yeah, that turn 3 entry looks pretty hairy, but, low speed at least

Kinda messed up and scheduled a family vacation that overlaps with this event, so, I won't be able to attend now. Forgot....so, of anyone wants to buy my spot, to let me know.
 
This is Linda's 60th birthday, so, no, not anytime this time.
 
I might have to bow out of the 5 June trackday since my car still has not shipped from Backdraft and I don't want Vintage to rush the completion. Next week on April 17th, Backdraft would have had the car for 5 months. We'll see.

Steven, you're welcome to borrow my enclosed trailer to go get it and deliver to Vintage? Although, you are experienced enough that you could probably keep up with us in your truck! :rolleyes::o Mike
