Billy welcome to the series. Make yourself at home, use all of the resources we have to get your build on the track. We would love to have you bring your Camaro out this Saturday. Slow or quick you will have a great time. See you Saturday,

FYI, You have a reserved pit spot with the group if you decide to come out and have fun.
