Good morning all.
More trash cans on the way.
All the racers get to “test/tune” prior to race day, however the Track never gets a “practice” race. The show is “ON or OFF”.
We (I) used the first race as my “test/tune” for the rest of the season.
1st and foremost, the hot grid layout, general organization, flagger placements, and overall track safety.
Angie and the Track staff, Ed, Carolyn, Matt G., Ben, as well as Ian and the flaggers that helped did an outstanding job.
Rich, I didn’t put out any “fanfare” because I feel that the racers that actually come to the event should get the fanfare.
All promotion for anything at The Track happens on The Tracks website.
FM broadcast on the way, more PA speakers for the hundreds of spectators that showed up thru-out the day, and maybe a huge “on ground” banner for all the jets that all called me that afternoon wondering what was going on as they were landing…
Thanks again to the racers.
On a tech note… This first race was “very lax!!!” simply due to the huge number of new racers. This was your opportunity to get used to the system.
Spec tire (MG Yellow FZ) as well as fuel and oil will be enforced as if its a CSC race. More details to follow.
Now, on with the curbing, fuel depot, red bull cross-over… (the list goes on and on)
Hope to see you June 4th.
