I'll be there Monday through Friday co-driving with 'preparedcivic' in his GS Celica (#63) on Thurs/Fri. It's my first time at Nats as well.

I'll be there working on the KONI Service Trailer up by the tire trucks between the paddock and the South course. We'll be there Saturday to Thursday morning doing free KONI damper service and dyno testing. Drop in and say Hi, I'm the big guy with the gautee.
If you want to have some work done, it is on a first come-first served basis and priority is given to people who are actually using those dampers at the event. We will also be passing out 25% off shop labor coupons for the normal KONI shop services that will run through December 31st.
Finally we are having a special deal for Nationals and Runoffs for SCCA members by offereing selected Light Truck shocks (Ford F150, Ranger, Explorer, Expedition, etc, and Dodge Ram, Durance, Dakota 4x4, etc) shocks at $50 each if you are an SCCA member. Normal list is $114 each and mail order retail is $80 each. If you tow vehicle needs shocks, this is a chance for low priced adjustable KONIs.

I'll be there at Nationals, but I'm leaving the ITR at home. I got an offer to tire warm for a friend in GS, so I'm taking him up on that to get the experience of running at Nationals.
I'd like to meet some of you from the midwest and east coast while I'm there though, and I'll definately be watching the DS battle closely and taking notes for next year.
GS - 2000 Subaru RS
National Virgin.
Wednesday through Saturday.

Dyno testing? Would this be a chance to get some "JDM" shocks tested for your comparison project?

We were there last year with this trailer (white 24ft. box with huge KONIs on it) doing the same service. We were next to the tire people and Grassroots Motorsports' canopy. The prior two years, Pro-Parts was there with our Motorsports Manager helping out but it wasn't free.
Since we are doing it ourselves with our staff, we can control the price (thus free).

Sure, my only concern is that we will have limited fixtures on the trailer for testing some damper shapes but generally I think we should be OK.

This will be my 14th year at Nationals (holy chit that makes me feel old); driving my GS '00 Celica GT #163, with Conemasher Scott Hoffman either warming my tires or pee-ing on them with a squirt bottle if need be.
I'll be in town from Friday 9/5 to 0:dark:00 Saturday 9/13.

I think that'd be difficult for her, with school and stuff.
I'm going, and going back to my "old" shoes. Since "77" was taken by the time I signed up, going with "7" for Nationals.
