July 2022

Thank-you to everyone who made it out early to race with us at the Fairgrounds this weekend.  Everything went smoothly, the course was fast, we did 6 runs each day plus fun runs, and were still out of there early in the afternoon before the heat really took hold.

Saturday, David Winterburn set the top time in his JBS Sports Racer, while Sunday, it was Boris Podtetenieff in his Tesla Model S Plaid – Boris swept the PAX win both days, though only by 0.156 on Sunday over Garret Murphy in a Nissan 350Z.  Our fastest Novices were Dino Tojaga in a Fiat 124 Spider for Saturday, and Matthew Robustellini in a Mazda RX8 for Sunday.

We have just 4 points races remaining on the calendar (August 20th – 21st & September 10th – 11th), plus our non-points Enduro / Year End Celebration (October 15th – 16th).  For Club members, to trophy you need 4 completed events to be eligible in your car Class.

The August event will follow the same “start early, beat the heat” protocol as July, September as well if the heat stays with us.  Our annual charity fundraiser is set to start the September weekend and conclude at the Enduro in October, and we are in the final stages of choosing a local non-profit for this year, we’ll have more info at our August event.

Cheers!
