All kidding aside, we really should do this 255 class... it'd be a lot of fun and a big challenge to get to work.

Yeah, 255/60 class will not be anywhere near the ET's of the 8.5 slick class. If someone gets 11's out of a 255/60, they have one hell of a susp setup (or a really light car).

11.4's on 215/60's all weather tires. I think clocks in over 3000lbs with driver and the 3800v6 setup. 60's were in the 1.6x range. So it can be done :) |

That's pretty cool! -- I wonder how different TNL prep is from Haas' track day. I know they prep'd it pretty good at his events. Have you ever tried to run it at TNL event? |

Like i said, there should be a call out class where you challenge others for the Benjamin's.
And announce it!

You won't be able to hear it anyway, so why try? That PA system blows. |
