@Randy, As before them, todays racers have come from street to track through different influences than many that have been involved in the ICSCC longer. There was a time when the Driver Training was the clubs venue mainly to develop and maintain the Novice drivers ranks of ICSCC with the added...

Thanks, Tom. I don't think that you should take any of the 'chaff' shells landing around here as any indication that you aren't doing the job that you need to do under the constraints of the regulations that you need to adhere to. If nothing else lets appreciate that a little steam venting can...

ICSCC is not unique in their flagging techniques. It's understood that motion is easier to detect, but in most cases we can only create some 'body' language with them to emphasize our true sense of urgency. We can't divert from the original rule set as they are, although there are some slight...

Testament to the era in which the Pacific/Kent/Seattle International Raceways was spawn. Those days of no pesky neighborhood noise restriction THUNDER. Look back at it after some years. When the new whiz-bang configured, re-fit/paving all over the course transforms so much of that nostalgic...

I wish I had a picture other than that in my memory's eye as I watched a 2002 launch up the 'conveyor' belted tire wall @ T12. It's a bit fuzzy, but it was white, and I could see space between the tops of the workers head and the roof of the car as it went inverted. That was many years ago. I...

Then close your eyes Scott 'cuz you probably won't want to see what that eternal vortex at T8 can do to the uninitiated. I think a Brewer was the closest to the wall on this one.

So I'm reading it for the grajillianth time, and I pause to ponder. "E 408. Course Marshal. The Course Marshal shall be responsible for the final preparation and maintenance of the course." First I've always wondered when the "Course Marshal" definition was originally created, and with what...

The logic that I've heard stated had to do with how a mfg. labels their products in respect to the standard that they have constructed that product. (i.e. UL, FIA, Snell, SFI, ASME, NEMA...etc) But whether any which one of those standards set the standard of longevity, and in any given set of...

Thanks, Dick.

So the question may be more of how a club might strike the balance between value to the driver-participant (sometimes referred to as the customer) as opposed to the potential revenues that may be generated within the amount of time allotted on the schedule at any given venue?

Precisely. The reasons are the history. And as each club is responsible for its own self-sufficiency, they have their own. CSCC VHF freqs have been used at PIR since before my time there. So before 1984 Cascade Sports Car Club already owned, and used Wilson brand radios. They also had a...

"Honestly the E-Board meeting would be turned into a shambles if everyone in Conference decided to attend."--Rick Bostrom said that? I think that it would be hilarious. I also think that the possibility of everyone in Conference attending any one meeting is very, low. The Fall Mtg/Banquet...

Other than expecting this information to be published in the Memo each year, we should all be, as I have been made aware of, it's existence in the PnP manual. SECTION 3, MEETINGS - PLACE OF MEETINGS. The Board of > Directors shall meet > immediately following the annual meeting of the members...

Get a Spokanese Snow Macho-marines out there for a 6hr enduro. Sorry, I don't know what I'm sayin'. Sounds like it could be some good wholesome family fun.

The Mayor's New Clothes...

WT1's the only team with a Captain. Let Anarchy reign!!

I haven't heard anything from my agent. Daniel has acquired consistent employment, and a roof over his head. His participation depends upon those priorities remaining satisfied, so I won't speak for him. Is there a set of the supps (script) for this event? I have to assume that those that...

He's got race cars in one ear, and out the other Roger 'Marbles' Solomon, TPFD Congratulations!

If I might touch on Mr. Harvey's comments... Of course he's right. Every event depends on that symbiotic relationship of driver entries, and operational personnel. That balance is important because once the money is spent on the facilities, insurance and so on, it's gone, baby. Last season...

Hey, buck up Randy. It ain't all that bad. The 'Conference' is a wonderful group of diverse, and dedicated people with the likeness of their passions for this great sport of ours, and the satisfaction that it may provide. ICSCC, on the other paw, is a means to that end. The 'organization' is...
