I just noticed your hard-shell back protector thing...just FYI the most highly regarded race back protectors what can be got are not hard shell. Take a look at the T-Pro Forceshield, and the Knox...whatever the top of the line one is (I forget the name). Neither are hard shell.
You might consider changing that to a requirement for a back protector, as opposed to the little bit of foam some jackets come with, or some such.
Dave, Nick will be there if you want another 2up ride LOL Tdub

Both days will be CCW. There is no CW running at Tally at this time, due to some modifictions to some of the runoff areas that are needed to make CW safe(er).
