Jarrett-
You mentioned something about having two seats open for each lap. Have a sign up list? Are we talking a front passenger seat and a middle rear seat?

Keiser,

There will be a signup list at the event on Friday and we will be using front seat and middle rear seat. Each person signed up will get a chance to jump in the drivers seat so they can feel the difference.

Thanks.

What is security going to be like out there? My dad is concerned about bringing our mountain bikes because he doesn't feel safe just leaving them at the campsite while we're on course. I assume this is a small enough group that we shouldn't have to worry about things like that.

the way I see it, most folks out here will be armed. In TX a tent is considered your home, you enter my tent, you die.

You guys are more than welcome to leave your bikes in our pits if it makes you feel better. But I wouldn't really worry about theft. I have a hard time believing that will be an issue.

My RV has a rear garage we can keep a few things in if there end up being a lot of spectators, and I will have plenty of support crew, so there will always be someone in the RV....they will probably be drunk, but thats the kind of support you get when its volunteer.

How far away is the closest gas station? After running Friday and Saturday I doubt i'll have enough fuel to run Sunday as well. I'm expecting to average 5mph on the track if lucky.
