It's time for our summer karting events to begin.
As many of you heard at the business lunch, we've had to cancel the event we
have planned at LeMans Karting for July 19. But luckily, and with lots
of effort by Rick Gaan, we've been able to secure a spot at SpeedRing (San
Jose).
The new event time is Sunday, July 20
at 3:30pm.
The event format will be a team enduro. In
this format, we will divide ourselves up into teams, with the number of
drivers per team dependent upon how many drivers sign up. Each team gets
15 minutes practice and qualifying, and then we'll run a 90-minute enduro
race. Rick has some great ideas on how to make up the teams which we can
discuss in a future message, but for now, to reserve this date, we need to get
commitments from you so that we can hold the event.
We need a minimum of 30 drivers. At that level,
each driver will pay $70. The price will drop if we get more drivers -
if we can get 42, the price will be $50/driver. This is a great price -
a real good discount on what SpeedRing normally charges for this event.
Thanks again to Rick Gaan!
Please reply to me before July 4 to reserve a
spot. I need firm commitments so that we don't risk CFRA finances, so keep
in mind that a reply is a commitment to the club to attend,
assuming of course that we get the 30 driver minimum.
For those of you familiar with SpeedRing, you know
that this should be a great event - lots of track time and more agressive (and
safe) wheel-to-wheel racing than you'll get anywhere else. For info on
