(in conjunction with the Texas World Motorsports Club)
I've received one confirmation from a maybe and one possibility to a no... :-(
Doug Lockin wins the award for first money sent in!
My boss got a big grin on his face when I showed him the 'challenge' and he's definitely going to be there along with a friend who runs another Camaro.

Send me an email or call if you want real paper docs sent to you by snail mail.
Fee: $200 for Saturday and Sunday, $100 for one day.
Please send your registration documents and payment to me at:
Kirby Schrader
506 Bayou Knoll, Houston, TX 77079
I'll consolidate and get it to TWS.
We've put a deadline here of August 31 as the last day to get your registration in and paid. The sooner, the better.
Saturday evening BBQ is paid for at the event. No need to send me that.
Accomodation
------------
The Cedar Creek Inn in Navasota said they would give us a group rate for the event. Just tell them you're with the Pantera club
The rates are: 49.00 single or double, phone 409-825-8000
The hotel is on hwy 6. aprox. 12 miles south of the track.
It's a football weekend, so they will fill up soon. Book early!
Barbeque
-----------
The Saturday night BBQ at the track is $10 for all you can eat. Real Texas style stuff with three kinds of meat, those nice tasty little green thingies called jalapenos, beans, slaw, etc. :-)))
Some people asked about beer... It's not supplied by the track or the caterers.
We can bring some if we want, but only for the BBQ. Safety is still numero uno, so no alcoholic beverages during the track event or in the pits.
Common sense, right?
William King's Texas challenges have been answered by the KaLiFoRnIa dUdEs!
Now, who's gonna' get the hat? And who is going to claim the Eastern challenge?
Visitors
-----------
Some people asked about visitors. Visitors and spectators can join in for free. They do have to sign in at the gate and if names are available beforehand, it will make the process much easier. So when you send in your entry forms, make a note of who else you plan to have attending so they can have names already setup at the gate.
And to challenge all you real drivers, my boss will be there as one of the instructors with his Camaro SS. He's been turning sub 1:19's with his Camaro. For those of you who don't know TWS, that's an extremely respectable lap time on the inner course with a stock car. So much so, he's usually got the other instructors ticked off 'cause they can't catch him!
And his license plate even reads 'TWS 119'
;-)
