NNJR will set up a NARRC Town Hall Meeting for the NJMP July event that we will co-sponsor with SJR. Expect more meetings as well.
Also, worker donations and late fees will be donated to The Christine Wenzel Fund. Chris is a special person that puts her heart and soul into SCCA racing. Someone that puts a smile on your face no matter how you feel.
See you at the races!!!!!!!
Anyone/teams have extra crew available for Saturday for the CPM Motorsports Team. We wanted to come up and cheer on the ITA drivers. Sounds like we are ALL interested on attending on my end.

Props to Andy and Nick at Flatout for accomodating me up with very last minute setup out of the blue!
Pray for sun... please
We are all set up, under the trees. All teched, ready to go! I actually spend most my time at LRP today at registration getting oh umm about a million minor waivers and stuff. Good people in that shed.
A great BIG Northern New Jersey THANK YOU!!!!!!
How do you measure if an event was a success?
:happy204:We had great weather
:smilie_pokal:Great racing in most groups
:happy204:The workers were and are the best in the northeast!
:birra:The 'beer' party was provided by NNJR. Need to thank Tim and Chris Andriesen, Sharon Burke, Diane O'Connor and Trevor H. for all the help with making that happen. Thanks to Lime Rock for the use of one of their grills. Thanks to Scott Mayo of Lime Rock for understanding our car counts.
Once again Steve Ambrose and Butch O'Connor went above and beyond. Thanks to Debbie Sherman for handling the trophies and the nice little touches.
It was a lot of fun, time to unpack the truck and get it ready for NJMP this weekend. TeamDI Pro IT at NJMP plus a lot of IT cars can run as STU and STO in the National. Thunderbolt is a blast to drive.
Email me at Darrell at NeedMoreRacing.com if you need directions to NJMP to miss the Turnpike.
You notice I have not mentioned how much the event cost and how much our region donated to to the bottom line make this happen. We are NNJR, we race. Things will get better!
DA, and NNJR folks...well run event. The areas workers seemed to e out in good numbers, and the trophies were well done. (If there was one minor suggestion it would be bigger dowels on the checkered flag lap...I did note one driver broke/lost his on the checkered flag lap, they don't stand up to the wind too well, LOL)
Also, Brad, it was nice meeting you. I wasn't putting two plus two together when you stopped by, and it didn't dawn on me that you were you, LOL. Nice job.
I hear you on those flags. We found them buried in the truck Thursday. We had them in the budget but with the entry the way it was tracking we did not order new ones. The car counts meant everything got chopped.
I always liked victory laps so I grabbed what was there and off we went. The drivers and crew work hard and the workers and spectators deserve to give a cheer.
Hopefully the numbers will increase for NJMP and we can get real flags to honor our winners. But we (NNJR) took a beating on this event. It happens. But we race until the Board pulls the plug.
Hey Darrell, thanks for everything-this was a fun one.
Good attitude to have, and mentioning the crowd, by the way-anybody else notice the nice, sizable group of folks up on the hillside? People realize that a Regional (with dry weather :rolleyes:) is still a good show!
Thanks to Flatout Motorsports for catering to flaggers, as is becoming usual-you guys help keep the NEDiv strong. :)
I think that is great what FlatOut is doing! Forgot to thank them as well. LRP did a ride or 3 as well.
Thanks again, time to crunch the numbers and see how we did.
Please support NER on June 19 (School) and 20 (Regional). Jerry R. was at the track seeing what we screwed up so NER will do a better job!!!!!!:happy204:
