It's not a by-law, it is part of the court injunction that also prevents racing on Sunday and limits the number of un-muffled weekends.

And, if it starts with a green flag and ends with checkered...

You cannot race at LRP on Fridays.

That is why MoHud did their q sessions on Friday and their two races on Saturday for their double this spring.

Nvu runs on Windoz, Mac, and Linux, but the best feature is the price.

And I have known pole sitters to have been penalized for balking at the start, e.g. not keeping up with the pace car.

The GCR is indeed gray and even conflicting, in that you clearly can try to...

Considering where the starter is, and the distance involved (you said it was an early start) it is almost impossible for the starter to accurately judge if the P2 car is in front of the P1 car by a...

Ray,

I would take bets that if the NARRC committee did something like this that they would also be looking for yet another pointskeeper.

It's a real nightmare from the perspective of figuring...

6 hours or less is a sprint race. Yes, it probably would be better if the Nelson race wasn't the same weekend, that kills any entry as the serious enduro teams are out there.

Actually, the rules changed LAST year, e.g. for 2006.

(2006) 7.5.4.
The pace car, with emergency lights flashing, shall position itself
at the head of the pack. It shall proceed at a constant...

The race is over at the S/F line regardless of where the timing loop is located.

Photo finish? The starters and the stewards in the tower use any and all information to name the winner. If it is...

This, of course, assumes that one is allowed to use said "NASCAR" timing loops. Many tracks prohibit any access to either the timing loops or any electronics connected to them.

And, the S/F...

About a dozen replies back, I posted what happens.

As I said before, yes, it does.


No, but drivers may know things that T&S doesn't know, like the part about the Q times being wrong. T&S...

Andy,

No, my assumption is that nothing was said to an official before the results became final. I have no direct proof if the provisionals were seen by any of the interested parties before that...

The difference between the two is that in this case T&S was alerted to the error BEFORE the final Q sheet was posted and, hence, it could be fixed.

For the Sunday race, it looks like the problem...

Since I'm the "guy" on the front straight maybe I can fill you in on it from my perspective.

As you know, the transponder loop is in NASCAR turn 4, so the Starters (who are doing a lap chart for...

Yes, but the landscape of inter regional and divisional politics has real interactions with the business decisions. What may be a good choice in strictly the business case may not be a very good...

Jeremy,

I'll go off track here a bit to offer a historical viewpoint.

At one time, when Nick Craw was in charge at the National Office, he was pushing to have New England Region broken up into...

When I go to other tracks, and see the number of people working there, I am amazed that Lime Rock can turn any sort of profit with the HUGE number of people they have on "Staff". For our...

It is a two day regional and only $40 more than the one day regional that NER ran.

It does seem strange that it is only 3 minutes more P&Q and only 5 laps more of racing, since it is a two day...

It is my understanding that the single largest renter of track days is Skip Barber Racing. It is also widely rumored that they have had a real sweetheart deal contract from back when Skip owned it. ...

The scales at the Glen used to be notorious for changing over the course of a weekend, back when it was the wood platform scales in the old F1 garage. I have seen those scales drift as much as 5 to...

normal procedure is to have the wreckers and tilt bed exit the track at west bend, if that will be the fastest way off the track.

The decision to checker the race after the red came out was made with about 5 or 6 minutes on the running clock (e.g. the one we kept running, not the one we stopped when the red was called for.)
