Steve Smargiasso, Craig Carter, Ron Carter, Mike Anderson, Steve Link, Maasaki Ohmura, Stefan Winquist, Bill Wessel, Mike Sweeney (two roadsters), Les Cannaday, Phil Mendelovitz, Tim Arnett and Ron Wheatly all confirmed entries that I know of.

Of note, Mike Anderson (Rock Vest #38) and Phil Mendelovitz (Stoddard Roadster) both these cars raced against each other in E Production and are spectacular high performance Roadsters. Neither one of these cars have been on the track together since 1994. Both from the south east and very competitive cars it will be a sight to see both these two cars out on the track together again.

Stefan Winquist, is bringing his 1600 BRE clone from Denmark!
Maasaki Ohmura is bringing 67.5 SR 000010 from Japan!
Bill Wessel is bringing his 1600, the first time that I am aware that his car has been raced on the west coast
Mike Sweeney is racing his 65 1500 (that has a 1600 in it)
Mike Sweeney will also have a second roadster on hand for a customer and is supporting Stefan's race effort.
Les will have his lightweight roadster there
Steve Link will have his Fitzy clone car
Craig Carter's former Sharp Roadster
My 67.5 2000 Sharp Clone car will be there
Tim Arnett and his 68 racing roadster will be racing
Steve Smargiasso and his 67? 1600 Orange Racing Roaster
Ron Wheatly in his 1600 Roadster, Frank Honaswitz <sp> driver


All of these cars have great history it is the largest group of racing roadsters I have ever seen racing and I have been racing in events since 2005. This is a unique opportunity to see a very rare site. In Addition there are at least a dozen or more 510's and I am sure as many 240Z's entered. SCRAMP opened up registration after the announcement for Datsun's and Nissan's for this event and were flooded with entries.

Phil Mendelovitz has 4 cars all Nissan & Datsuns, Steve Link has three cars all accepted.

This should not be missed...

Ron, Thanks for the update.
A number of us are coming from Seattle for the racing.
It will be quite a spectacle for us Datsun fans.

I have heard that Paul Jaremko and his 64 1500 racer will be there! Not racing but at the track.
Paul's family owned a Datsun Dealership in Spokane in the 60's and was one of the first to race the roadster.
Mostly local PNW races and hill climbs.
Paul still owns the 1500 he raced as a kid!.
