**** A little change in at Site Registration procedures ****

Since we still have some people that need the New and Improved Bar-Code stickers… Please bring your current Bar-Code to the registration table. We will be scanning Everyone’s Bar-Code at the table. We want to make sure everyone has the current Bar-Code. Leo also wants us to work on manual inputting driver information into the Timing System on the 29^th. Leo is a stickler for improvement and proficiency so we’re going to do it his way and learn something.

New Event Added to Schedule

Posted on May 14th, 2010 by DJ

Due to a contracted date that was inadvertently added to our schedule of dates that we have with the Idaho Expo Center, we are adding another event to our schedule.

The date is June 19th. The event will be a Nocternox….More news to follow.

In other news relating to the Idaho Expo Center we will have a definite Yes/No on us getting the lot on the Sunday of NW Motorfest, on Monday morning. The outcome of that decision will be presented to the general membership at the membership meeting the next day, where it will need to be decided what and when will need to happen with our charity event.

I will continue to update things as we gain more info.

Thank you

Darius

Double Duty Dozen…Even #5, NocternoX 5-08-2010

Double Duty Dozen…Even #5, NocternoX 5-08-2010

We had a Dozen or more show up to Test-N-Tune…Then stuck around and raced in our first NocternoX for 2010. I was one of the Double Duty Dozen and will tell you that it was a long day. For those brave and dedicated suffering bodies pulling Double Duty. I send out an “Are you as stiff and sore as I am?” This 57 year old is paying the price for fourteen hours of FUN…my mind says Yes, Yes, Yes I can but my body is telling me, “No, No, No You can’t…” That’s it laugh all you want…just wait till you get up there in years guys…it’s eventually gonna happen to all of you so be nice…LOL

Test-N-Tune went pretty smooth. Everyone showed great sportsmanship and waited their turn at each of the sections. There were three different sections set up. (1) Slalom (2) a quick little hick-up turn into a decreasing radius turn and finally (3) a medium skid pad. Each section had undulating surfaces (positive and negative camber) playing into the equation. All of this added to the cars handling and driving characteristics. You could hear drivers working the throttle and playing with the course. There were several of us playing with and adjusting different aspects of our cars and everyone got some good seat time.

When Racing finally got under way for a moment there I thought I was transported BACK in time. You’ve got to picture this in your mind… I am watching Brian McGaha in a borrowed white Miata and hearing this…”Brian McGaha has fastest time of the day,” the announcer stated. WHAT??? Oh wait, maybe we should turn to page two for the rest of the story… Brain was the very FIRST car out and therefore did indeed briefly hold the fastest time of the day… Now when you put things into their proper perspective it all makes sense. (snicker, snicker)…His top time only time lasted for about 50 seconds as the very next car literally mangled his time. Sorry Brian but it’s going to take something a little more scary fast than a borrowed Miata to take and keep top spot. It’s all in good fun Bro.
