Re: vreihen??

" .... and to pass a rule that any past chair who shows up at an event is totally exempt from worker assignments"

Can't beat that! If I ever return to NY, I'll try and make it on a NYR Solo weekend :lol:

Re: Nationals

I seriously doubt a MOD index would ever see the light of day for National events. PAX, probably the best index we have seen is still not that close to being 100% accurate IMHO. I doubt folks would cast aside a heads up competition for an index, even a PAX index. I know I wouldn't no matter what car...

Hi Arthur, Your name came up at Guy Frost's Vanderbilt autox yesterday. Frank Krawiecki, John Tures, Jim Khana, :P and a few of the region's other long-time members were all standing in a circle, and someone said that all they were missing was Art Trier for a KASC (?) reunion.....[/ quote Usually wh...

Yep, one step back, got it! 8) . Trouble is I don't move, the others take that step back and there I am, standing by my lonesome :lol: . I left the MAC two years ago 'cause it was time and the SEB had other plans. Since most national-type Appeals are heard after the event, the SEB wanted to handle A...

Speaking of which, is that clown still on Team.Net, or did he find a rock to crawl under after his unfounded dissing of NYR and all of the other numerous ways he found to put his foot in his mouth? I have no idea where Paul is. Heard he moved south but where, I don't know. I think that the minimum ...

Mornin' Johnny. Nah, this crowd isn't "tough". Some of us just like to poke a little fun once in awhile :P . If you want a "tough" crowd where things do get tense, you should go over to the F500 forum where some of the folks tend to be separated from reality........ :lol: The fol...

Re: Nationals

>I've never heard anyone say they were not willing to make the Vee into it's own class if there was sufficient participation.> Hmmmmmmm. You've heard that said to you about 2 years ago when Vee participation was at a peak. No positive response from the SEB at that time when we had the best chance of...

Re: Nationals

Arthur, I would expect that most folks that like a given type of car, wish to improve and tinker with that car and are not really into switching cars just for trophies. Some do of course, but most don't. If they were just trophy chasers, they'd be STOCK competitors who buy/lease the "car of the...

Re: Nationals

Lynn, I would hope that Scott Nardin who is, I agree, an excellent driver, does not solely define what a "national class driver" is. I would hope that it would be defined from the observation of Tour, Divisional, and National drivers who do participate in F Mod. I would hope that the membe...

Re: Nationals

Mike, The possibility of moving to another class, if thats what you guys really want, is more of a possibility then your own class. We did discuss this early on as an option submitted to us. At the time, we felt that updating the Vee offered more potential and less problems. Whether that opinion sti...

Re: Nationals

Mike,

I would like to see that happen but is Chuck basing his opinion on just the surface change or an updated Vee along with the surface change? It still might be too early to get fully updated Vees out to Nationals this year.

Re: Fuel tanks?

How about the born-on date for harnesses? I've heard multiple opinions on this, but nothing definitive in the Solo Rulebook saying whether or not harness belts must have current date tags like in GCR..... After doing some research on your question, I too have found the SR lacking when dealing with ...

Re: Fuel tanks?

There is no requirement for GCR legal fuel cells in ANY Solo Modified vehicle. As with some other GCR requirements, there is a specific exception to the GCR written in the SR concerning fuel cells. Check Modified Section 18.A.7.1., Safety Rules.
