What if I don't want to click this? LOL!













































Looks cool! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif I'm glad you got it all organized. I'll come to watch, I don't think the vert would be too much fun to drive, being that it can't break the tires loose.



Did you make it out to the auto x last sunday? If so I must have missed you. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/dunno.gif

Hey sucker, I wasn't asking you to click it. I WAS TELLING YOU TO!!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/angry.png



Nah, both of my cars are down for the count. The 7 isn't getting fuel for some reason and the 240SX is still waiting for a full wiring harness set. Until then I'm using my roommates second car get around. It's a crusty Tercel. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif



I swear I'll have my 7 for this event.

So you are saying i wont be able to run because im not in any of the clubs? boooo... thats lame!

Jerk_Racer 05-22-2003 02:03 AM

Yep, but them's the breaks. I tried to have it open for everybody but all I could get were guest drivers. For less than the price of a tank of gas you could have been in the club too. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/tongue.png If I never joined one this event would never have happened. Clubs are good.

Why, I'm glad you asked. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png The next meeting is June 6th. Sure, it's after the event. But being in TS is worth it for some of the members only events once in a while. This is my third year going to autocrosses but only this year I've started branching out to the local race community. It's been good to me so far.



I've been a member of Bremerton Sports Car Club since I started autoX'ing. Why? Because I go there very often. $4 less per event, 1st crack at special events, and $25 off lapping days. I've got my money's worth from that membership that for sure. Being a member of TS is looking to be good too. But I've only been a member for four months.

Sounds like a lot of fun, I'll be there. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

Do you have any rough ideas how many people will be participating?

Jerk_Racer 05-22-2003 11:56 AM

No idea yet. Between the two clubs and their one guest per club member, I'd say about 40 or so. Which is fine by me. Being new to organizing events, there might be some hiccups. At least with this small group there will be less pissed off people at me if stuff goes wrong. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png After this event I think I'll be able to put on a full blown event with a lot more people.



There's no pre-registration so I can't really know until the day come. Less people = more seat time. Each person is going to be out on the course a lot longer than they will be for an autocross and depending on how things go there might only be one person out there at a time. Ehhhh, we'll see. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/dunno.gif

Holy mother of pearl are you guys going to think I'm the biggest f'n flake. Guess what? It's bad news. I was just told by the president of BEAC (the club that allow events at Boeing) can not allow spectators. Word of this has spread fast and far enough that he heard about it. It's their insurance. From what he said, SCCA and WWSCC events are insured as "non-spectator events". This requires everyone on site to sign the waiver as "participants". Non-participants are spectators and they are not insured for that. It would have been nice if I was told of this when I was talking with him last week and worked out the details of who could come and if people could come by and watch. I know I've been to plenty of other events up there and spectators were always there but just not in large numbers. All I can do here is retract this thread. The event is still happening for those that can go, but for everybody else this is a dark day indeed.



I'm truly sorry. Once again the insurance issue kills everything. I don't know who here remembers the Drift Event I was putting together last year, but that was all ready to go but getting the insurance was the only problem. I've tried to get something going for this region for a long time, but these issues keep it down. Mark my words - I will have more of these events. In the future I will try to find a location that does not restrict non-members from participating.



But once again, I'm sorry. Go on and hate me. I let you all down and I'm hating life right about now. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/angry.png
