Re: 2015 Points Tallied

How cool is it that Bruce wins the drivers points championship in his last season of racing at Waterford? :P

Protocol question

Let's say Driver A qualifies a car on Saturday morning in 3rd position ... Driver B takes over the seat in the car for Saturday afternoon Heat Race #1. Does Driver B start in the 3rd position at the rear of the field?

Re: I.T. Invitational at Waterford (Read; I.T.ONLY FEATURE R

Understood ... but the reality is, sticking much faster cars in the back of the pack with much slower cars often results in incident reports being filled out. Been there, done that a couple of years ago when we experimented with using just one pace car in Group One with Spec Neon bunched up in with ...

Re: I.T. Invitational at Waterford (Read; I.T.ONLY FEATURE R

A few of us Spec Neon guys were kicking around the question of how we would get our rightful place on the IT Invitational starting grid, in that during our normal morning qualifying session we would be running on our SN legal Hoosier SM7 tires on heavy 15x6" Neon wheels ... whereas in IT legal trim ...

In the spirit of sportsmanship and fair play, we have decided that Garrett can run any 14" all-season tire of his choosing. :mrgreen:

2015 Rules?

I googled and found a pdf for the 2014 WHRRI Rules and Regs ... is there a 2015 version published yet?

Re: Questions About Getting Started

As a car owner & crew chief ... my approach to car preparation is based on Murphy's Law. :roll: Whatever needs to be done to hopefully prevent a break-down, and God-forbid, an injury or worse to my driver and/or the others on the track will get done BEFORE the car gets put on the trailer.

Re: 2015 Rules

Is there a committee or process for updating / amending the rules for a certain class ... e.g. Spec Neon? ;)

Re: Gingerman, Grattan & Mid-ohio

My very limited two cents worth per Joel's comments ... I've done OTD's and Corvette Club autocrosses at Waterford without so much as a single pucker moment, however the few spirited "pace laps" I've done at Grattan during lunch time in The Banana with its blind hills and short radius corners more t...

Track Records

No biggie, I know all things happen in good time ... I had a customer who makes it to the Vintage races every year and surprised me showing up to Race Weekend #6 ... stopped by our shop today asking about some repairs to his wife's car asked "Didn't you guys set a class record?

Re: 2015 schedule

This works for us as well as many of the others who had to chose between WHRRI and the IT Spectacular at Mid-Ohio in August. Remember how thin the fields were in SM and Group 5 last year that weekend?

Re: putting her to bed

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=37 What's missing in the above is the tires should be deflated down to roughly 5 psi ... and removed from the car to avoid flat spots and/or storing the car up on jackstands. If stored in a non-heated garage, the engine and cooling system sh...

Re: Saturday evening festivities?

Per usual, I'll be spending Saturday night in the paddock ... after nut-n-bolting "The Banana" I'll be BBQ'ing a steak and potato and chilling with a beverage while reading "Senna". :)

We need to return the favor more often. Maybe that's why we never see him behind the wheel any more? 8)
