    Lap Records at Mission

    Small correction - ST is not a retired class in Conference so Mike MacAleenans record would still be current. SST was added with a 7.5 to 1 weight to power class in addition to ST which is a 10 to 1 weight to power class. It is slightly more complicated than that with some modifiers but that...

    Usually there are straight bars that can be adapted to length and use grooved attachable arms a heim jointed links. Those pieces are going to be findable mostly on Formula Car sites - maybe Pelican Parts type places?

    roll bars

    Do you have a specific example I can help you with? I have issued a lot of logbooks over the last few years - happy to help if I can.

    roll bars

    In a strict sense, yes - the front hoop is the front point that the "broomstick" is perched on while the back is set on the top of the roll bar. That "broomstick" must pass safely above the driver's head when seated in the car so your helmet isn't the point of balance if the car finds itself...

    New License Tiers (ARR vs. IRR)

    So the little red hen said "who will help me make bread?" The cow said " I would help but I get very tired if I have to work and it would probably damage my ability to enjoy the bread when it was done". The dog said " I would help but I am pretty sure I am allergic to bread until after it is...

    New License Tiers (ARR vs. IRR)

    4) Andy: "This incentive is a soft cost and non-recurring, so it would have minimal impact on the clubs. It would be non-recurring because, hopefully, our product would, after a first bite, sell itself. (This is how most promotions work, of course.) If the product does not sell itself, then we...

    New License Tiers (ARR vs. IRR)

    Andy and Colin - I appreciate that everyone has an opinion and I am happy to hear participants debating them in the spirit of making Conference what it's members want it to be. I'm not picking you out so please don't be offended and certainly don't take this personally - I just want to use a few...

    New License Tiers (ARR vs. IRR)

    Bruce - Thanks for your approximately 1/249th of Conference driver's opinions. Convince another approximately 124 ICSCC licensed drivers (hope we get an increase over last year regardless) or their representatives to agree with your opinion and you will have the opportunity to pass a rule that...

    Finalized 2021 Race Schedule

    Never count the small number of NWMS people working their heinies off out. I'm sure they will continue to fight until there is absolutely no hope in their effort to hold their scheduled racing event. I'm sure they are exploring every avenue to get the track open for their race and if they...

    New License Tiers (ARR vs. IRR)

    I definitely agree with you on a couple of your points Steve - I would like to find a way to drive a lot more conversational traffic back to this forum as it used to be a better, if still imperfect, way to get much needed input from the membership to leadership. I also have severe misgivings...

    New License Tiers (ARR vs. IRR)

    Steve, I respect your right to your opinion but arguing against someone who doesn't have a vote on the E-Board (me!) who took the time to REPORT the decision seems a bit futile. Everyone involved places different levels of importance on different aspects of this complicated issue. It's great...

    New License Tiers (ARR vs. IRR)

    Without sounding like a broken record, I find it somewhat amusing that things like this are worded as if people are suddenly surprised that they have exposed a conspiracy where "Mr. Conference" is doing nefarious things like stealing candy from babies and pushing the elderly into traffic behind...

    COMPETITION LICENSE AND MEDICAL FORMS ARE AVAILABLE NOW

    If you have the DOT physical required to legally operate a commercial 18 wheel truck and trailer combo on public roads it is very compatible with our racing physical and I have reviewed and approved those in the past. If you have a military or pilots physical we have reviewed those and accepted...

    COMPETITION LICENSE AND MEDICAL FORMS ARE AVAILABLE NOW

    Yep - there is the potential for a bit more change in our forms than usual so we took the 2019 versions down for a very important yet simple reason; They are 2019 forms and it is 2020. Last year the license registrar received far too many 2018 forms with the date crossed off and 2019 written...

    Spokane and NWMS

    Just wanted to say thanks for the great hospitality in Spokane from a small number of volunteers who worked really hard to put on a great event. I was born and raised in Spokane and try to support their race whenever I am able. There is really a small town friendliness at that race that is a...
