Space Florida Shuttle Runway 200 MPH RUN

[DEMO MAN]

David is running a 3.21 rear end. Not a 3.07. I wonder how my 3.55's will do....

Try this out, you can calculate your speed at various RPMs and also play around with gearing changes to see what it does to your speeds.

David, is there an option to attend and drive only one of the two days?

One cool thing they did was put a plaque on the runway surface at the point of touchdown where each shuttle made it's last landing. Lot of history there and standing on the surface looking toward the other end is definitely inspiring.

That's amazingly cool.

I will ask Johnny the question. I going to guess that with the costs associated with badging, renting the facilities, along with the other stuff like safety crew, helicopter, video etc he would probably require the same money even if you did one day. We would also be doing the runs starting on the first day with 1/2 mile, then mile followed by the 1.5 mile and it's possible we wouldn't get to the 2 mile until the next day. I hope your able to attend, it's really an over the top event.

That's some cool pics of the shuttle, it's one of those America icons that tells the world how great this country is. I was at the press viewing platforms once and watched a launch, it is beyond inspiring to watch it leave the earth.

NEW UPDATE ON KSC NOV 3/4 EVENT

Several have asked about the cost to add another driver to their car and I spoke to Johnny Bohmer about it to see what could be done to accommodate that. The cost to let someone drive your car at the event is an additional $500.00. That does not include a video for that driver. If the extra driver wants their own video it's $750 adder for that. For the $750 they would get their own video with speed, name etc like the one I posted at top of this thread. So to make sure it's clear, $500 just for extra driver without video for that driver, $750 to add the video for the extra driver which makes a total of $1250 for the package. If you are bringing 2 cars to the event you can only have one on the runway at a time. You do have to join IMRA to run this event at a cost of $55, their website is www.internationalmileracingassociation.com . Let me know if you guys have any questions. Thanks, David

Just so we can keep up with those who are interested in running at Kennedy Space Center on Nov 3/4 would you add your info to this post so I can make sure we don't go past the 40 cars allowed. If we reach 40 we can add others as standby. Just name, then +1 if you have a guest coming, car or cars, modified or stock is enough. This helps Johnny with planning and also it will give me some numbers to go discuss with a hotel a special rate for us. Some have gave me there info already but I would prefer you post your info so I don't mess up any names or car info. Looking forward to a great event, maybe we can plan a dinner that Friday evening at a local place. I also heard there are approx. (15) Hellcats that are coming so with them and those that contacted me we should meet the 40 fairly easily. Putting your name here doesn't obligate you to come, at the point you need to pay your deposit in the future you can decide then. Once we reach 40 others will be put on stand by in the order they sign up. Thanks, David

How about just one car. One video. One driver.

How much?

It would still be $1850 for the 2 days, the biggest expense is the runway rental, management and the video/pictures. Not bringing in a guest isn't really going to change that. I really hope you are able to go as you're super competitive and would do well there.

Looks like a great time!
