[John Brown]

Rife.. just cause you been out uf ya seerX a lil while... don't mean you can run Novice..

[steverife]

Dunno how that happened, but I've definitely been feelin' like a novice the last few times.

[ConeEater]

Not sure but I THINK I'll make the event. I know a couple PA folks that are talking about coming down too. We'll see though

[John Brown]

I hope errrbody is ready for some FAST & FURIOUS transitions!!

Last year was sweepers and off-sets... Get chu sum salom practice real soon! your gonna need it...

[black16g]

I have a couple questions....Is this a charity event? I'm assuming so but the only reason I ask is because we usually register different for those events. If it is, will ride alongs be $10? I would love to be able to get a work assignment that would allow me to be available for ride alongs in other heats. I'm going to try to get a bunch of friends and family to come, although it is hard to convince them of how fun it is to race around cones in a parking lot. I could help with setup Friday and takedown Saturday or maybe help with tech since Walter will not be there.

Poss you could do some of that. the Knoxville caravan will get be there as soon as possible on the event day.The Deli just a short before the left exit onto Hwy11 is a good bet for a Pre event food,I am out for redemption this year as last years fastest run was some how not seen by the timing lights.Trailer crew error???????????or finger push at point of fast run to delete? not sure.They also said blank. Button pusher not here now...I will try again!!! We will have fun!!!!

Shall I assume karts aren't welcome for some reason?

[dewittpayne]

As I remember, there are guy wires for some of the poles in or near the lot. I believe that's the reason why karts are banned by track management.

[jcox07]

Yes Scott there are no karts at this event and I will be headed up to the event on Friday to set up and I will let you know by pm if I need some help with that. I will send those pm's out as soon as I can. Thanks to all that have offered. It will be a fun event. JY

Just a reminder on course set up. I know a lot of members are starting to ask to do this,and the willingness to help is much appreaciated.. however.. course set up is really a "ONE MAN SHOW" with the possibility of 2 helpers. one to throw out cones.. another "heavy experienced" to actually help with sitting up of the cones. Cones placed just 1 foot out of position can drastically affect the fun factor of any given element.. And normally course by "Committee" isn't a good thing either..
Now.. with that said.. I think we decided to make cone marking an actual worker position.. (its not easy) but your assignment is over before we start.. lol

That makes Van driver, course designer and possibly helper and cone marker, as needed for set up of course. (4) positions

Now.. equipment is another thing..and NOT my bag... they may need some early morning help. maybe they can chime in on that???

Im ready to run this event!!

Oh.. and..

[Scoob]

It's only about 20 min from the house so I may bring the FR-S out to play in STX.

[jcox07]

That would be good Scott. Like JB said, we will need a little help and I will let you know by pm who and when to be there to assist us. Thanks JY
