    Apparently DLB had some issues this morning and thought it was not 1999, but 2005. Everything's back to normal now but the entries are down a bit from 70...we're actually at about 30.

    Still great but the other was amazing! Any idea how many of those already have licenses?

    Now that I'm not looking at people who went to school in 2005?

    The only names I recognize are from our PDX program (incl. our chief instructor), a steward, and a 2-time National Solo champ. None appear to be current license holders.

    And with two days left to go, we're currently at 68 entries. I believe just two are currently licensed drivers.

    And if any of the usual Summit Point ground hogs show their faces (or tails), I can't guarantee that someone isn't going to exact revenge for our extended winter.

    quite the event. cold, windy, pouring rain and driving snow...all weekend. we now have a batch of new racers that will be better in rain races than half the experienced drivers out there!

    there were actually racers with no wipers that had to come through the pits every few laps to have the snow/ice cleared from the windshield!

    Now that's a Driver's School after my own heart. Of the twenty one schools that I headed, only one was liquid free and only one had snow. But none had pouring rain and driving snow.
    Rain racers rule!

    Those who attended this school got more wet weather seat time in one weekend than I have gotten in the last five years. Even with the torrential weather there was a minimal number of metal to metal incidents.

    Thanks to the workers for standing outside in all of this so that the drivers could go play!
