Re: Next year's schedule

Wow, so much to unpack. COMs instructor core is one of the most dedicated group of instructors I know. A group that dedicates itself to keep our members safe and set the pace of their development. Instructors also put ourselves at serious risk. We earn our track time and and often sacrifice that pri...

Re: Do 2018 rule changes reset all track records?

I read through the revised rule book this weekend and thought the changes were pretty minor; certainly nothing that would reset all the track records. . But, I think we should only reset records if it's absolutely required. It's not an accomplishment to set a track record if we reset them every tim...

Re: Do 2018 rule changes reset all track records?

Once the rest of the club get a chance to review the rules, I am sure we will have some more fruitful discussion. From my perspective, which is mostly worthless, something like a repave/reconfiguration of a track, or the release of an entirely new set of classes is pretty easy to justify a change i...

Re: Do 2018 rule changes reset all track records?

Hi Sandy, Sorry, I was at the last BoD meeting where the results of the rules were discussed. As someone pointed out, they'll be published very soon. My point was that the rule change was so dramatic, what's the policy of when records get reset? Like the rule change of 2013 and the repave of Watkins...

Hi, As I was reviewing the rules, my car falls into the dyno requirement, making it go from T-40 (2017) to T-50 (2018) on the same tires/same weight. For another example, Jeff Wasilko is calculating up at least one whole class as well. What's the policy on track events, when the rules are not nearly...

$109/night for the whole apartment. (plus fees). (if two people sign up). $245/3= $41 per night, per bed.

I only booked for sunday, monday and checkout tuesday. I am sure we can extend the reservation, if needed.

Thanks
