Who all is going to be at the "Christmas Race" ??

I know there is already another post of this.. the other one has just turned into smack-talk

I also have a quick question.. To race you HAVE to have a helmet, no matter how fast of a car, right?

I might race my TA.. just depends on the helmet thing.. I don't have one

Just use this thread to have some kinda of idea whos comming and what car they're going to be racing..

Thanks

Come on Evan...I've rode motorcycles since I was 5 and raced up until last year. You not think I have a helmet or two laying around? I have the one I used to race in(dirt bike helmet), and I have one that I used to wear when we had the street bike. Both are fairly new and DOT approved. There are several full faced and some that aren't. I can't remember which one I wore in the bird, but you can head out to the house sometime and pick one you like.

I'm still comming, but if I race or not is the question.. The posi in the car is going out, and well, 2nd gear likes the throw me all over the place instead of just bark. I'd much rather keep the car out of the wall.. Either way, I still might bring toys or a money donation for the cause.
