    That's what I thought I remembered hearing last year...so which one would we be going to? Is there any advantage of one over the other, helmet requirements notwithstanding? What constitutes a suitable helmet and what would I be looking at spending on one?

    Maybe we could all measure our heads and just get a couple different sizes to share...lol

      They dropped that requirement. Thats actually the reason I didn't race in 07, didn't feel like wearing the helmet. Once we got there they said not required if we were't running under like a 14 or something. Fastest run of the day I don't think got into the 15s so we were well covered.

                    Looking at the 2007 schedule, there probably will not be a test/tune day on the weekend of August 10-11th. Probably Friday Night Street Race. What does that mean for the casual Panther passes? Are there many qualifying passes allowed before the eliminations start on a Friday night? How crowded is it?

                      I just wet myself....

                      NMRA @ Atco NJ is Scottfest Weekend. Friday is Test and Tune. The track is around 129 miles from Skippyville according to Yahoo Maps...
                      Showing up with a group of Panthers on Friday would be way cool.....
