Topic: 2020 SCCA Proxy at Al's

Hey guys, We just qualified the cars for the first race of this proxy last night. They are some great cars.

We are looking for people to help out getting the race done, probably at the end of next week.

If there is a day and time that works well for you, post it here and we will do our best. There are a good number of entries from people in the club, so it would be ideal if we could find 3 drivers who don't have a horse in the race!

Thanks for helping out, you guys are awesome!

I’m available next Thursday evening

Race cars are neither beautiful nor ugly. They become beautiful when they win.

I'm available around 6 PM this Thursday and next Thursday, but not sure if you need student drivers? Lol. I might be able to make other evenings work as well, I just can't do it tonight or tomorrow night.

Pick a night and we can broadcast it to the group using the weekly scheduler.

I'll make it if I can.  Thought I'm guessing some would prefer I just keep making tires.  wink

Monte, I will nail something down with Al and let you know. His wife is going in to surgery for her hip this week. So we were planning on next!

Oh, needing...  Yes, indeed, we need drivers AND marshals.

Re: 2020 SCCA Proxy at Al's

About an hour or so. For the racing part, now the BS-ing, that's another story.

Re: 2020 SCCA Proxy at Al's

I will probably take close to 2 hours with many cars. The field is 21 if I remember correctly.

I should be over there around 4:30 this afternoon to start running laps to get the track cleaned up.

PLEASE ONLY RUN RUBBER TIRES FOR PRACTICE BEFORE THE RACE! The urethanes greatly compromise the grip, if there is time after you can give them a go then!

Thanks for the help guys!
