Hell, I'll race in the snow! Sometimes I think that in a former life I was a Scandinavian stage rally driver...
Cancelled, in case you didn't know. As for the other events, I'll "believe it when I see it"
You can pm "krazy kyle ITB Pinto 99"
I doubt he gets on the boards here often, so good luck!
Another option is to contact his buddy, Dave Gills, at Lake Erie Communications. Google them to get...
Congrats. :happy204: That really is a nice-looking car. Nice to see ITR filling up with a variety of makes...Was getting a bit dull seeing mostly BMW 325s make up the fields...
Yeah, how does the Kumho contingency work? What do you get for a win, 2nd, 3rd?
I hear you. I don't like it either. I wonder if we missed some fine print somewhere when we signed on to go SCCA racing. You know, like signing up for a mag subscription, you're liable to have your...
I was subjected to the same bullshit from Roz in 2008. When I went to the Glen for the '09 Fun One, I took the pictures to the track, fully expecting a half-mad man to corner me and demand them back....
There's nothing like outlaw road racing, although I would NEVER advise it.
(Maybe that's the attraction of IT for me. We are the outlaw category of SCCA.)
It's been said that a big reason...
Oh, shxt, could I design you a course on some rural roads east of Cleveland!
Which reminds me, at a recent local SCCA awards banquet, a track operator was telling the audience how her facility is...
How would you be coasting in the turn, in our hypothetical example, if you've got no steering? Remember the steering would no longer have a column!
The whole Toyota recall situation has me wondering again what Showroom Stock, and eventually IT, is gonna look like in the not-too-distant future. The following is just a rant.
Imagine it's 2025,...
Gotta apologize... I'm pretty new to SCCA. I'm in my third year of club racing. Before that, I was a member of NASA. But it was for a couple years so I could do their HPDEs.
Thanks for the history...
No, I'm sorry. I am in strong disagreement with your statement. This is a CLUB. It exists by, of, and for the members. If the elected leadership doesn't follow the wishes of the membership, then the...
[QUOTE=Butch Kummer;302166]...I've heard rumors that participation on the various forums is "discouraged" by the BoD and the higher-ups in the stewards program, but again I've never heard exactly why...
Let us hope that Mr. Wannarka's use of the word "national" as opposed to "National" is not a typo...
The CRB does indeed have other matters to deal with, but let's not allow them to forget OUR issues. Keep up the emails, phonecalls, snail mail, telepathic sendings, etc. :D
OK, fellas. We got some ideas to raise some hell, so now lets get to setting the hellfires!
Another idea is to attend your local SCCA regional board meeting to increase the awareness, or write a...
Well, nothing has come back, and I did not get any request to redirect mail. So I'll assume the CRB got my complaint. But to be sure, guess I'll resend my letter through one of the "official"...
I sent my e-letter last night to [email protected]. Does this mean that they didn't get it? I may have to retype my letter...
Here is my letter sent to the CRB last night:
To whom it may concern:
I am an IT racer from the NeOhio region. Member # 388701. I am writing in support of the ITAC classification system that...
Jake: I agree with you, and I retract that statement. (Apologies to all.) It was made assuming that the IT community had a clear path to those in power to effectuate positive change. As you pointed...
Sorry about that Steph, but you know who most of us are! I'll try to be more gender-sensitive next time...
Exactly what I was thinking. Driver skills, individual car prep levels, track environments, etc. can be all over the spectrum. So how could you ever measure these things to do car classification and...
Ron:
Thanks a million for your open letter. It was just what I was needing to see. A letter that very effectively sums up for relative newbies like me what this whole mess is about. I fully agree...
Jeff, if I read that right, the CRB wants to inject subjectivity along with the ITAC's formulas into the original classing process? If so, isn't that like putting the cart before the horse? My...
