Summit Point October 15-16th - Chris - 09-07-2005
Just registered for HPDE 1! Can't wait to get back on track! Unless a job interview interferes, I'll have the del sol out again.
- Evan - 09-07-2005
If my car is ready, this will by my first w2w race!
- Sijray21 - 09-07-2005
i'll register for this when i get the time, hopefully the'll be some open spots by next friday
- navin - 09-07-2005
are spots for HPDE 1 gonna close up that fast, I was hoping to get done with my court stuff and see how much money I had left and go from there...
shiit, I had already ordered my pads too...

I would assume so... I go through Laura C. because I'm using worker credits. I didn't get to see the exact number of entries so far.
- navin - 09-07-2005
feck..
I have a day worth of credits, maybe I'll just do one day... I orignally was gonna pay the left over with cash and do the whole weekend...
- Mike - 09-07-2005
you can't do just one day. your brake pads will not go bad if you don't use them...
- navin - 09-07-2005
yeah I know, I just had my mind set on doing the October event....hopefully there are some spots left in HPDE 1 after my court date..
I should find my NASA worker book too..
- Mike - 09-07-2005
when is your court date?
- navin - 09-07-2005
Sept. 21st..
- Mike - 09-07-2005
would be pushing it. you can always sign up and back out. i don't particularly condone this, but you've gotta do what you gotta do.
- navin - 09-07-2005
That's true, but I dont want to dick NASA/or anyone over... oh well I guess I'll be playing it by ear and getting my car ready just in case
- Feersty - 09-07-2005
I am interested in possibly working or flagging this weekend. Does anyone know off the top of their dome whether you get paid that first weekend of flag instruction, or have to train while not getting compensated? I have flagged weekends before, so would that mean I can immediately start getting $75 a day?
If someone could invoke some knowledge regarding this it would be appreciated.

if you can stay awake i think you'd qualify as "already trained."

as long as Laura C. agrees you've flagged before, then you'll get the cash that weekend.

like mike said, its not great to bail out, but they have a 1 week notice cancelation policy if that helps your decision at all.

- Dave - 09-07-2005
Navin, I would register now if I were you. There is always a waiting list for these events, so NASA is gonna fill that spot regardless. I don't advise signing up with the intentions of bailing, but if you do everything you can to make yourself be there, then that is all that can be expected.

I'm out, way to close to G&W's Fall Fling for me
- ViPER1313 - 09-07-2005
I would like to take a flag course / do work for this weekend if there are any spots left. I have never flagged so I guess I wouldnt get the credits first time - thats fine w/ me.
