"The good news: Drivers that come to racing by this door (Re: Chump, Lemons, Rats, etc.) soon figure out that the cheapest way to go faster is to learn to drive better. That is good for our schools (Re: Collectively ICSCC clubs, and others). The second good thing is many of these guys have...

That's one of the beauty of ICSCC. The members clubs are responsible for their own events, and in regard to events that are not directly related to the ICSCC sanctioned Championship series, they don't have to depend on permission for every decision by the committee of the other clubs'...

Kyle, here's a better question. Why would a club, ICSCC or otherwise, want to promote and operate an endurance race? I mean, it can't be simply to please a dozen, or so teams. Although profit shouldn't be the motivation, at least breaking even should. So what is the motivation now...

Posted on the Pacific Raceway page of Facebook: "Your Help is Getting Us Closer with County Council! A letter from Jason Fiorito, President of Pacific Raceways. First I want to thank all of you who showed up to the King County Council hearing on Monday Dec. 5th. There was an impressive showing...

In those days... Here's the configuration at PIR from 1961-1968 And the early days of Kent/Seattle/Pacific

PACIFIC RACEWAYS NEEDS YOUR HELP!!! THIS IS THE FINAL VOTE BEFORE KING COUNTY!!! *** Pacific Raceways currently has a proposal in front of King County to expand and make improvements to the facility. The King County Council will cast their FINAL VOTE regarding Pacific Raceways expansion at the...

This Ain't Burger King She meant that the first IRDC race at the Ridge should have Dbl. Pts. But the reverse rotation of ORP is a whole 'nother deal, isn't it... And a whole 'nother set-up. Direction-wise, driving-wise, and race operations-wise. I gotta say that I've been to a good number of...

I was given a 'teething' pacifier of the HAVOC I, II, III...etc. Classics. Some VHS copies are still available on Ebay, and Amazon. Youtube has oodles. You wanna study the dynamics of "wha-happened" there you can spend hours in slow motion now. The tapes wear out though. And I'll sit...

The dedication factor remains the same, Bonnie. I believe that there is a solid cadre of workers that are all making those races that they can, as they can, where we can. And to each owns satisfaction. My race schedule pretty much matches Grandpa Pettybone's, usually. Save this year I didn't...

Remember stock car racing? When all it took was a little know how, and guts? Then more sponsors showed up And lotsa more money.

Thanks, Wes. I'll go with that. One of my favorite quotes from Graham Hill explaining why he remained motionless in his car for several moments after a 1966 crash while qualifying at Indy-- "Well, when one is involved in a motor racing accident, and one hears tremendous noise and crashing and...

"Did you know that one of the largest clubs in Conference is run by pretty much 11 people, and that the membership meetings rarely generate more then 20 people except for rule vote meetings." That is most certainly an historical fact. But too, where this forum's appearance of participation may...

15 races may have been more than some clubs were prepared for initially, but it seems that they all survived to race another weekend. But regardless of saving one round trip tow to a facility, three in one weekend is a less fun, more grueling schedule. At least for those providing services to...

A better idea

Bob Smethers has, as his predecessor had before him, proven that The Pros From Dover can provide the best care anywhere, while continuing the Fastco Racing tradition with Steve "Jose Potts" Leonard prepped, set, and raced the #3~15 brown rabbit while executing a quality operation for Team...

One story is that Jimmy's loss sent the Scot to battle.

"UNLIKE ICSCC, a rule change proposal can come from ANYONE who's an SCCA member. That means the rewrite could have been done by a group of Van Diemen engineers, a bunch of Tatuus drivers or, the Mygale management. HECK, maybe I WROTE it just cause I didn't have anything to do last year while I...

Richard said-"UNLIKE most rule changes submitted to SCCA, NOBODY has laid claim to this one NOR did SCCA publish who submitted the rules change request which is NORMALLY done. It turned in to a real black helo's thing." The Fastrack (minutes o' the meet) comes out every month and is available...

http://www.scca.com/documents/Fastrack/11/11-fastrack-sept.pdf I'm sure that many of you are already aware of the up and coming changes to your car classing as it may relate to the SCCA GCR. And some may not. To that sum, this issue of Fastrack in particular contains much information on what...
