    100 DB for SCCBC 20th Anniversary Celebration Mission Aug. 30-Sept. 1

    If we're going to spend our entire long weekend volunteering trackside, it’d be great to see as many friends from the south as possible attend the triple event in Mission Labour Day weekend! Thought I’d post the entry from the Supplemental Regulations as the link seems to be broken on the front...

    Father's Day? Red Fleece Ferrari Jacket with Schumacher Autograph!

    So here's the thing ... At the inaugural Formula One race in Indianapolis in 2000, I was lucky enough to make it onto the flagging team. While doing a walkabout on the Thursday beforehand, I happened to be in front of the pagoda as Michael Schumacher was exiting. I zipped over to him as he was...

    Just curious ... I have my hotel reservation for the Seattle race in June, but I still don't see the race weekend registration on Motorsport.Reg. The weekend IS going ahead, isn't it?

    Kamikaze UFO at Mission!

    Check this out, it is SO - COOL!!! You should try to see if you could get these guys down to the Ridge with their flying UFO! We had so much fun watching it zooming around above us from the corners, and now to see the end result is AWESOME! Kamikaze FPV - Road Race Footage at Mission Raceway...

    The Ridge September 28-29

    I just looked over the IRDC monthly minutes meeting and noticed this: The lack of volunteers was raised as a concern. The Race Chair stated that any volunteer positions he is unable to fill will be filled with paid help. What does that mean? If you don't have enough volunteer corner workers...

    Create a tribute photo page?

    I was reading the post about Dan Rowland, and just as happened with the post about Mike Oberholtzer, I thought ... I knew these fellows, and I can't put a face to the name! There have been so many we've lost along the way, I thought it would be nice if we could have a "Tribute" page with entries...

    A love letter to Seattle! (and other stuff)

    [Yikes, now that I’ve finished this little ditty, I’m serious competition for the length of Rick Bostrom and Ken Killam posts! :smile: Sorry about that ... but then again, you don’t have to read it!] Been reading all the very valid gushing about Spokane, and with another race weekend around...

    double yellow flag / full course yellow

    This message is really for my fellow flaggers. At recent events, I’ve heard comments on how a double-yellow situation is flagged at the corner stations, specifically, criticism that a double yellow is being displayed at a corner with an incident ALONG WITH the waving yellow flag. Some folks...

    "Senna"

    **BRILLIANT** documentary, be sure to see it. Saw it at the Vancouver Film Festival last night, general release set for August. Fabulous footage, interviews ... gut-wrenching though. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1424432/

    Motorsport.reg double entries?

    I'm confused about entry lists on Motorsport.reg ... why does it show the same name twice in the same group? I was excited about seeing over 100 entries for Mission next weekend, then started going through and see that (again, because I see this all the time lately) in fact many of the groups...

    Did we make history this weekend?

    Just wondering ... was this the first time Conference has had a double race weekend in its 50+ years? Not the double points for a new track weekend, but qualifying and racing on both Saturday and Sunday? I kept meaning to ask but forgot ... Will be interested to hear what the drivers thought...

    More “fuel for the fire” on the discussion about getting out of your car in a fire.

    Yesterday I was having dinner at a restaurant with some friends and they were broadcasting the IndyCar race from Texas on their big screen TVs ... when this incident happened, I was practically jumping out of my seat, and my “get her out ... GET HER OUT ... !!! GET HER THE F OUT !!! ” comments...

    Worker question for IRDC

    Hi y'all! Have you worked out any arrangements with local hotels for room rates for the workers for the 2010 season? I'm thinking positive here and want to make reservations for the March Enduro (say it with me ... NO SNOW! NO SNOW!! NO SNOW!!!) :) Bonnie
