Races #6 and #7 are in the books, and it was an eventful weekend to say the least. We hosted 95 drivers, did a big spaghetti dinner Saturday night, raffled off a bunch of cool stuff, and exceeded our fundraising goal for the (say it with me) Shasta Regional Community Foundation’s Community Disaster Relief Fund. The support from our club members, friends, and motorsports community was amazing! Troy and I will be stopping in at the Foundation tomorrow to give them a check and to thank them for their efforts in rebuilding our community after this summer’s fires.
We had a lot of help and participation in this weekend’s events, but a big shout out goes to Jeremy and Kristie McNeely of Perry’s Automotive, who were instrumental in gathering donations for the raffle, and were a big part of Saturday’s dinner. Thank-you to everyone who chipped in to make the fundraising efforts a success.
It was a sweep for Top of Day and PAX, with David Winterburn taking home Top Time in his JBS Sports Racer, and Blake DeWit continuing to beat us all silly for PAX in his ES Miata. Full results can be found on the Trinity Touring Club website Results page. Please let me know of any issues you see with the accuracy of the results.
Unfortunately, there was a racing accident during the final run group on Sunday, and one of our Club members was injured. We are following up with those involved to see what we can do, and I will be sending a note shortly to ask, once again, for your generosity and support.
