OK Everyone - It's official!!! When: 11.13.11 Where: Texas Motorplex (Ennis, Texas) Entry: Race registration begins at 9:00am however I suggest arriving to get in line much earlier. I spoke with IFO founder Cliff Wallace today and he is excited about having all of us there! However, there is one hitch in the ability for most of us to participate in the bracket class that I over looked. Their bracket class is for SPORTS COMPACTS ONLY. Therefore, the only class that most of will be able to participate in will be the class that I am going to setup for us. Here is what I am setting up: You DO NOT have to pre-register for our class. Just pay the $25.00 entry fee at the gate upon arrival and we will handle the rest. Easy no? All collected entry fees will go into the pot for the winners of 1st, 2nd, and the semi finalist(s) I am going to set up the class as a standard format .500 handicap tree that everyone here is already accustomed to running with. Any domestic V6 powered vehicle welcomed. Any BUICK powered vehicle welcomed. This will be an "any tire" class. Slicks? Drag Radials? FWD? RWD? - No Problem! This will be a "No Box" event. (No delay boxes, No throttle stops) Any transmission combination including trans brakes are acceptable Any power adder or combination thereof is acceptable We are supposed to get at least 2 time trial sessions (3 if time allows). We should also get our own lane in the staging area that we will use to line up in for time trials and eliminations. Eliminations are scheduled to begin at 1:30pm. For those of you not familiar to this event, it is a really big deal with thousands of spectators. Think of it as a national event for the import crowd. I know that they will also appreciate seeing our Big Bad Buicks and our friends clicking off the impressive e.t.'s that we are capable of. If possible, we will try to organize to park together inside the event. I have traffic cones available for marking off some spaces if needed. So spread the word to everyone in our Buick community that you know and turn this into our own personal mini-national event!<!-- google_ad_section_end -->
Were up to around 12-15 cars. :beer Anyone else? We will have some interesting cars there. A diesel powered Rivi (see above) :grin: A turbocharged Park ave. And 3 Fiero's with 3800 SC's And a few GN's and some GTP's :laugh:

Just a final reminder, the website states that racer registration will begin at 9:00am Sunday. I am recommending that you arrive to get in line at the gate no later than 8:00am if possible. There are going to be a LOT of people at this event if history repeats itself. As best as possible, we will try to get settled in an area where we can park/trailer together. I have never been to one of these events before and I am not sure how it will be laid out for the racers, car show and vendor parking zones. I am looking forward to hanging out and don't forget to print out the flyer for your pit crew discount's. I believe that you will need one for each separately. SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY!
I'm just now getting this and unfortunately won't make it. Don't mean to stray off the topic hear but I'm new here and was wondering if there will be anymore Buick events, cruises, shows happening in the north Dallas area?
