Divisional Shootout-Nelson Ledges Cup

[Renaultfool]

This is your first announcement about an added challange that will take place this October at the MVR Double Regional at Nelson Ledges. Nelson Ledges track facility sits on the border of two divisions of the SCCA, and therefore seems to be a venue that begs for a competitition between the two divisions, The NorthEast Division, and the Great Lakes Division. This year when you race this event you will be automatically entered as a competitor from your division in this head to head battle. There is no extra cost for this event. We just need the points from NE drivers so that we can beat the GL division and have bragging rights for the coming year.
My name is Carl Holbrook, an MVR member, and the representitive for the NE division drivers. The Great Lakes division has a representitive as well, Greg Vandersluis, who shall go down in defeat if we do our job well!
Entry forms are at www.mvrscca.org and the Divisional Shootout rules are at http://www.mvrscca.org/events/2009di...alshootout.pdf to see how the whole thing will work.
You can contact me with questions at my email address [email protected].
Greg can be contacted at [email protected] if any GL members happens to read the NE section of the Improved Touring website.
Plan on attending. MVR always puts on a great event. I will be adding updates as we get closer to the event.
See you there, Carl #41 ITC Renault Alliance

It was a good fight with many lead changes over the weekend . At the end of racing on Saturday the points spreads was only 4 points, Great Lakes leading 1016 to 1012 for Northeast . Sunday Team Northeast dug themselves a big big hole when 2 of their 3 points earning cars took each other out bringing out an extended red flag. They battled back hard but the hole was just to deep with the number of races left in the day. When the final points were added up Team Great Lakes won the Inaugural Divisional Shootout for the Nelson Ledges Cup with 1976 points over Team Northeast and their 1952 points. Two days of racing with every car entered having an impact on the points and it comes down to only 24 points difference . Just remember that the trophy is up for grabs again next year, Team Great Lakes will have to defend it and Team Northeast has a year to get ready to take it away.

Ya know - its one thing to run in the wet when its 70 degrees out...its another thing to run in the wet when its 35 degrees! the track was literally like black ice during the first qualifying session Saturday morning. I debated not even going out but I did and I spun in the kink. was that ever a ride...oh and I did some landscaping right before Turn 12
