REPortMeeting MinutesFinger Lakes Region SCCA General Membership Meeting Minutes

The Solo program is returning to Xerox in Webster It has been a few years since we ran there and it will be nice to have another event site in the greater metropolitan Rochester area As hard as it is to image the Solo season is winding down over half the season is over and the National Championships are right around the corner This year the National Championships are being held in Lincoln Nebraska home of the Nebraska Cornhuskers There has been a lot of chatter about the new site and I decided that I needed to go and see what it is like So after a four-year hiatus I am going to compete once again for the right to say I am the best Solo competitor in my class Okay so maybe the odds of my winning are less than optimal but you never know maybe everybody else in my class all 25 of them will have car problems and I can win My goal is not to hit a cone on every run like I did at the last local event

The 45th Annual Fun One is the weekend after I get back from Nebraska As I write this the entries are coming in 10 to 20 a day a good start There are a few details that Bob Henderson and John Walsh are still working out but Irsquom sure it will be a great event As anyone who has gone to a race knows there is a party on Saturday night In years past there were a few races where the party was held off site either at the Seneca Lodge or some other local facility Since WGI took over the track we seem to stay at the track for the party There are many reasons for continuing this tradition and I feel that a majority of the workers and drivers camp at the facility and would prefer to have the parties there We are

going to attempt to take a survey over the weekend of the Fun One to see how the drivers and workers feel Then over the winter the board of directors will look at the results of the survey and discuss what we should do going forward

The race program has been doing well this year We did better than expected at the Westward Ho race at Nelson Ledges this year It would appear that we didnrsquot lose as much money as it looked like we were going to a couple of weeks before the race weekend The drivers who come to that race all seem to enter late and it makes some of us a little nervous The National was a success and made up for the loss at the Nelson race

Brad Johnson has scheduled our fall picnic and there is a flyer in Top End and on the Web site Every year a group of us gets together and enjoy each otherrsquos company Itrsquos always a good time and I donrsquot think you should miss it It is going to be in Scottsville and I hope to see you there

Elections are coming up Not only the kind you go to the polls for but also for the people who run this region We are also proposing a couple of changes to the bylaws If you are unable to attend

the annual meeting in October when you receive your ballot please take the time to return the ballots to the secretary as soon as possible

Until next monthhellipMike

Race Report

Glen National ndash Elizabeth Thiel and Mike Toombs

There were a total of 262 cars recording times on the track

Although there were a few problems such as the running schedule they had little impact upon the participants The wireless networking system worked very well until the end of the day when probable interference from the Sunrsquos radiation diluted the signal With extra effort it still worked It was noted that with better mounting hardware the Nano Station hardware worked very well

Elizabeth Thiel was NESCCA Worker of the Event There were a number of comments that the Saturday and Sunday lunches were ldquospectacularrdquo The Saturday evening party moved to the garage due to weather was well received Once past the scheduling problem it was very easy to work with the track personnel

CRB Releases Suggested Rules Wording for Honda Engine in FF(August 11 2009)Honda Fit Engine in Formula Ford Proposed Rules

The following information will be published as suggested rules changes in the September Fastrack Because these proposed rules represent a major change for Formula Ford the

CRB is releasing the information now to give the membership as much opportunity to consider it as possible

The response to the August Fastrack ldquoWhat Do You Thinkrdquo request for comment on the proposal to add the Honda Fit engine to Formula Ford has been largely positive The recommended rules changes below provide the specifications for that engine as it would be used in FF if member comment is sufficiently positive and the BoD approves them There are some dimensions and part numbers that are listed as ldquoto be supplied by HPDrdquo In some cases HPD did not have time to provide them In others final values will not be determined until production parts are available (The test engine installation was done with prototype parts) The complete engine package with production parts will be dyno tested before the final intake restrictor size and ECU map are set Because HPD will not begin production runs of castings and other components until after BoD approval engine kits are not expected to be available to competitors until about 2110 Thus the tentative effective date of the rules changes is listed as 3110 It is possible that this date will change after approval by the BoD

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

REPortMeeting MinutesFinger Lakes Region SCCA General Membership Meeting Minutes

The Solo program is returning to Xerox in Webster It has been a few years since we ran there and it will be nice to have another event site in the greater metropolitan Rochester area As hard as it is to image the Solo season is winding down over half the season is over and the National Championships are right around the corner This year the National Championships are being held in Lincoln Nebraska home of the Nebraska Cornhuskers There has been a lot of chatter about the new site and I decided that I needed to go and see what it is like So after a four-year hiatus I am going to compete once again for the right to say I am the best Solo competitor in my class Okay so maybe the odds of my winning are less than optimal but you never know maybe everybody else in my class all 25 of them will have car problems and I can win My goal is not to hit a cone on every run like I did at the last local event

The 45th Annual Fun One is the weekend after I get back from Nebraska As I write this the entries are coming in 10 to 20 a day a good start There are a few details that Bob Henderson and John Walsh are still working out but Irsquom sure it will be a great event As anyone who has gone to a race knows there is a party on Saturday night In years past there were a few races where the party was held off site either at the Seneca Lodge or some other local facility Since WGI took over the track we seem to stay at the track for the party There are many reasons for continuing this tradition and I feel that a majority of the workers and drivers camp at the facility and would prefer to have the parties there We are

going to attempt to take a survey over the weekend of the Fun One to see how the drivers and workers feel Then over the winter the board of directors will look at the results of the survey and discuss what we should do going forward

The race program has been doing well this year We did better than expected at the Westward Ho race at Nelson Ledges this year It would appear that we didnrsquot lose as much money as it looked like we were going to a couple of weeks before the race weekend The drivers who come to that race all seem to enter late and it makes some of us a little nervous The National was a success and made up for the loss at the Nelson race

Brad Johnson has scheduled our fall picnic and there is a flyer in Top End and on the Web site Every year a group of us gets together and enjoy each otherrsquos company Itrsquos always a good time and I donrsquot think you should miss it It is going to be in Scottsville and I hope to see you there

Elections are coming up Not only the kind you go to the polls for but also for the people who run this region We are also proposing a couple of changes to the bylaws If you are unable to attend

the annual meeting in October when you receive your ballot please take the time to return the ballots to the secretary as soon as possible

Until next monthhellipMike

Race Report

Glen National ndash Elizabeth Thiel and Mike Toombs

There were a total of 262 cars recording times on the track

Although there were a few problems such as the running schedule they had little impact upon the participants The wireless networking system worked very well until the end of the day when probable interference from the Sunrsquos radiation diluted the signal With extra effort it still worked It was noted that with better mounting hardware the Nano Station hardware worked very well

CRB Releases Suggested Rules Wording for Honda Engine in FF(August 11 2009)Honda Fit Engine in Formula Ford Proposed Rules

The following information will be published as suggested rules changes in the September Fastrack Because these proposed rules represent a major change for Formula Ford the

CRB is releasing the information now to give the membership as much opportunity to consider it as possible

The response to the August Fastrack ldquoWhat Do You Thinkrdquo request for comment on the proposal to add the Honda Fit engine to Formula Ford has been largely positive The recommended rules changes below provide the specifications for that engine as it would be used in FF if member comment is sufficiently positive and the BoD approves them There are some dimensions and part numbers that are listed as ldquoto be supplied by HPDrdquo In some cases HPD did not have time to provide them In others final values will not be determined until production parts are available (The test engine installation was done with prototype parts) The complete engine package with production parts will be dyno tested before the final intake restrictor size and ECU map are set Because HPD will not begin production runs of castings and other components until after BoD approval engine kits are not expected to be available to competitors until about 2110 Thus the tentative effective date of the rules changes is listed as 3110 It is possible that this date will change after approval by the BoD

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

The Solo program is returning to Xerox in Webster It has been a few years since we ran there and it will be nice to have another event site in the greater metropolitan Rochester area As hard as it is to image the Solo season is winding down over half the season is over and the National Championships are right around the corner This year the National Championships are being held in Lincoln Nebraska home of the Nebraska Cornhuskers There has been a lot of chatter about the new site and I decided that I needed to go and see what it is like So after a four-year hiatus I am going to compete once again for the right to say I am the best Solo competitor in my class Okay so maybe the odds of my winning are less than optimal but you never know maybe everybody else in my class all 25 of them will have car problems and I can win My goal is not to hit a cone on every run like I did at the last local event

The 45th Annual Fun One is the weekend after I get back from Nebraska As I write this the entries are coming in 10 to 20 a day a good start There are a few details that Bob Henderson and John Walsh are still working out but Irsquom sure it will be a great event As anyone who has gone to a race knows there is a party on Saturday night In years past there were a few races where the party was held off site either at the Seneca Lodge or some other local facility Since WGI took over the track we seem to stay at the track for the party There are many reasons for continuing this tradition and I feel that a majority of the workers and drivers camp at the facility and would prefer to have the parties there We are

going to attempt to take a survey over the weekend of the Fun One to see how the drivers and workers feel Then over the winter the board of directors will look at the results of the survey and discuss what we should do going forward

The race program has been doing well this year We did better than expected at the Westward Ho race at Nelson Ledges this year It would appear that we didnrsquot lose as much money as it looked like we were going to a couple of weeks before the race weekend The drivers who come to that race all seem to enter late and it makes some of us a little nervous The National was a success and made up for the loss at the Nelson race

Brad Johnson has scheduled our fall picnic and there is a flyer in Top End and on the Web site Every year a group of us gets together and enjoy each otherrsquos company Itrsquos always a good time and I donrsquot think you should miss it It is going to be in Scottsville and I hope to see you there

Elections are coming up Not only the kind you go to the polls for but also for the people who run this region We are also proposing a couple of changes to the bylaws If you are unable to attend

the annual meeting in October when you receive your ballot please take the time to return the ballots to the secretary as soon as possible

Until next monthhellipMike

Race Report

Glen National ndash Elizabeth Thiel and Mike Toombs

There were a total of 262 cars recording times on the track

Although there were a few problems such as the running schedule they had little impact upon the participants The wireless networking system worked very well until the end of the day when probable interference from the Sunrsquos radiation diluted the signal With extra effort it still worked It was noted that with better mounting hardware the Nano Station hardware worked very well

Elizabeth Thiel was NESCCA Worker of the Event There were a number of comments that the Saturday and Sunday lunches were ldquospectacularrdquo The Saturday evening party moved to the garage due to weather was well received Once past the scheduling problem it was very easy to work with the track personnel

allowed to run the National race in Formula C This was done after he went to court and was declared ldquoemancipatedrdquo The cost for doing so included a $1000 attorney fee paid for by WGI

bull The Nano Station wireless system allows output from Timing and Scoring to be printed directly in the garage In addition a laptop running R-Monitor can also be used for Tech and other people needing current lap time data This system worked even when the primary Trans-Am timing and scoring system was experiencing difficulties (The wording used in the discussion during the meeting was much more descriptive of the situation ndash Another reason to attend the meetings)

bull The scheduling problems at the National race point out that at WGI events the schedule whether 8 am to 4 pm or 830 am to 430 pm needs to be defined along with any projected overtime Fuel hours also need to be set

bull It was noted that a sewing machine was seen in the fuel office It is not known if minor repairs can be made and what the fee is for making any repairs to suits or clothing

CRB Releases Suggested Rules Wording for Honda Engine in FF(August 11 2009)Honda Fit Engine in Formula Ford Proposed Rules

The following information will be published as suggested rules changes in the September Fastrack Because these proposed rules represent a major change for Formula Ford the

CRB is releasing the information now to give the membership as much opportunity to consider it as possible

The response to the August Fastrack ldquoWhat Do You Thinkrdquo request for comment on the proposal to add the Honda Fit engine to Formula Ford has been largely positive The recommended rules changes below provide the specifications for that engine as it would be used in FF if member comment is sufficiently positive and the BoD approves them There are some dimensions and part numbers that are listed as ldquoto be supplied by HPDrdquo In some cases HPD did not have time to provide them In others final values will not be determined until production parts are available (The test engine installation was done with prototype parts) The complete engine package with production parts will be dyno tested before the final intake restrictor size and ECU map are set Because HPD will not begin production runs of castings and other components until after BoD approval engine kits are not expected to be available to competitors until about 2110 Thus the tentative effective date of the rules changes is listed as 3110 It is possible that this date will change after approval by the BoD

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

REPortMeeting MinutesFinger Lakes Region SCCA General Membership Meeting Minutes

The Solo program is returning to Xerox in Webster It has been a few years since we ran there and it will be nice to have another event site in the greater metropolitan Rochester area As hard as it is to image the Solo season is winding down over half the season is over and the National Championships are right around the corner This year the National Championships are being held in Lincoln Nebraska home of the Nebraska Cornhuskers There has been a lot of chatter about the new site and I decided that I needed to go and see what it is like So after a four-year hiatus I am going to compete once again for the right to say I am the best Solo competitor in my class Okay so maybe the odds of my winning are less than optimal but you never know maybe everybody else in my class all 25 of them will have car problems and I can win My goal is not to hit a cone on every run like I did at the last local event

The 45th Annual Fun One is the weekend after I get back from Nebraska As I write this the entries are coming in 10 to 20 a day a good start There are a few details that Bob Henderson and John Walsh are still working out but Irsquom sure it will be a great event As anyone who has gone to a race knows there is a party on Saturday night In years past there were a few races where the party was held off site either at the Seneca Lodge or some other local facility Since WGI took over the track we seem to stay at the track for the party There are many reasons for continuing this tradition and I feel that a majority of the workers and drivers camp at the facility and would prefer to have the parties there We are

going to attempt to take a survey over the weekend of the Fun One to see how the drivers and workers feel Then over the winter the board of directors will look at the results of the survey and discuss what we should do going forward

The race program has been doing well this year We did better than expected at the Westward Ho race at Nelson Ledges this year It would appear that we didnrsquot lose as much money as it looked like we were going to a couple of weeks before the race weekend The drivers who come to that race all seem to enter late and it makes some of us a little nervous The National was a success and made up for the loss at the Nelson race

Brad Johnson has scheduled our fall picnic and there is a flyer in Top End and on the Web site Every year a group of us gets together and enjoy each otherrsquos company Itrsquos always a good time and I donrsquot think you should miss it It is going to be in Scottsville and I hope to see you there

Elections are coming up Not only the kind you go to the polls for but also for the people who run this region We are also proposing a couple of changes to the bylaws If you are unable to attend

the annual meeting in October when you receive your ballot please take the time to return the ballots to the secretary as soon as possible

Until next monthhellipMike

have been paid Top End mailing and membership received today have not been paid

Although the checking account balance is fairly high we will not be moving money into the money market account as it will be needed for bills expected prior to the September race

Race Report

Glen National ndash Elizabeth Thiel and Mike Toombs

There were a total of 262 cars recording times on the track

Although there were a few problems such as the running schedule they had little impact upon the participants The wireless networking system worked very well until the end of the day when probable interference from the Sunrsquos radiation diluted the signal With extra effort it still worked It was noted that with better mounting hardware the Nano Station hardware worked very well

Elizabeth Thiel was NESCCA Worker of the Event There were a number of comments that the Saturday and Sunday lunches were ldquospectacularrdquo The Saturday evening party moved to the garage due to weather was well received Once past the scheduling problem it was very easy to work with the track personnel

Troph ies fo r t he r ace were photographs of the car on track First place received 11X14rdquo photos with second and third also awarded photos every registered competitor was given

an 8X10rdquo photograph

It is estimated that financially we will be with a few thousand dollars of the amount budgeted for this event Track charges included two hours of overtime and thirty bags of kitty litter

Respectfully submittedCarl F Dresie Secretary

Bench Racingbull A 16-year-old Brazilian driver was

allowed to run the National race in Formula C This was done after he went to court and was declared ldquoemancipatedrdquo The cost for doing so included a $1000 attorney fee paid for by WGI

bull The Nano Station wireless system allows output from Timing and Scoring to be printed directly in the garage In addition a laptop running R-Monitor can also be used for Tech and other people needing current lap time data This system worked even when the primary Trans-Am timing and scoring system was experiencing difficulties (The wording used in the discussion during the meeting was much more descriptive of the situation ndash Another reason to attend the meetings)

bull The scheduling problems at the National race point out that at WGI events the schedule whether 8 am to 4 pm or 830 am to 430 pm needs to be defined along with any projected overtime Fuel hours also need to be set

bull It was noted that a sewing machine was seen in the fuel office It is not known if minor repairs can be made and what the fee is for making any repairs to suits or clothing

bull At Track Masters on Wednesday Boris Said used Bob Hendersonrsquos car while the Miata he was using

had a problem fixed and the seat replaced Boris was showing Joey Logano the track so that it would not be completely unknown during the NASCAR weekend

CRB Releases Suggested Rules Wording for Honda Engine in FF(August 11 2009)Honda Fit Engine in Formula Ford Proposed Rules

The following information will be published as suggested rules changes in the September Fastrack Because these proposed rules represent a major change for Formula Ford the

CRB is releasing the information now to give the membership as much opportunity to consider it as possible

The response to the August Fastrack ldquoWhat Do You Thinkrdquo request for comment on the proposal to add the Honda Fit engine to Formula Ford has been largely positive The recommended rules changes below provide the specifications for that engine as it would be used in FF if member comment is sufficiently positive and the BoD approves them There are some dimensions and part numbers that are listed as ldquoto be supplied by HPDrdquo In some cases HPD did not have time to provide them In others final values will not be determined until production parts are available (The test engine installation was done with prototype parts) The complete engine package with production parts will be dyno tested before the final intake restrictor size and ECU map are set Because HPD will not begin production runs of castings and other components until after BoD approval engine kits are not expected to be available to competitors until about 2110 Thus the tentative effective date of the rules changes is listed as 3110 It is possible that this date will change after approval by the BoD

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

Race Report

Glen National ndash Elizabeth Thiel and Mike Toombs

There were a total of 262 cars recording times on the track

Although there were a few problems such as the running schedule they had little impact upon the participants The wireless networking system worked very well until the end of the day when probable interference from the Sunrsquos radiation diluted the signal With extra effort it still worked It was noted that with better mounting hardware the Nano Station hardware worked very well

Elizabeth Thiel was NESCCA Worker of the Event There were a number of comments that the Saturday and Sunday lunches were ldquospectacularrdquo The Saturday evening party moved to the garage due to weather was well received Once past the scheduling problem it was very easy to work with the track personnel

Troph ies fo r t he r ace were photographs of the car on track First place received 11X14rdquo photos with second and third also awarded photos every registered competitor was given

an 8X10rdquo photograph

It is estimated that financially we will be with a few thousand dollars of the amount budgeted for this event Track charges included two hours of overtime and thirty bags of kitty litter

bull The scheduling problems at the National race point out that at WGI events the schedule whether 8 am to 4 pm or 830 am to 430 pm needs to be defined along with any projected overtime Fuel hours also need to be set

bull It was noted that a sewing machine was seen in the fuel office It is not known if minor repairs can be made and what the fee is for making any repairs to suits or clothing

CRB Releases Suggested Rules Wording for Honda Engine in FF(August 11 2009)Honda Fit Engine in Formula Ford Proposed Rules

The following information will be published as suggested rules changes in the September Fastrack Because these proposed rules represent a major change for Formula Ford the

CRB is releasing the information now to give the membership as much opportunity to consider it as possible

The response to the August Fastrack ldquoWhat Do You Thinkrdquo request for comment on the proposal to add the Honda Fit engine to Formula Ford has been largely positive The recommended rules changes below provide the specifications for that engine as it would be used in FF if member comment is sufficiently positive and the BoD approves them There are some dimensions and part numbers that are listed as ldquoto be supplied by HPDrdquo In some cases HPD did not have time to provide them In others final values will not be determined until production parts are available (The test engine installation was done with prototype parts) The complete engine package with production parts will be dyno tested before the final intake restrictor size and ECU map are set Because HPD will not begin production runs of castings and other components until after BoD approval engine kits are not expected to be available to competitors until about 2110 Thus the tentative effective date of the rules changes is listed as 3110 It is possible that this date will change after approval by the BoD

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

CRB Releases Suggested Rules Wording for Honda Engine in FF(August 11 2009)Honda Fit Engine in Formula Ford Proposed Rules

The following information will be published as suggested rules changes in the September Fastrack Because these proposed rules represent a major change for Formula Ford the

CRB is releasing the information now to give the membership as much opportunity to consider it as possible

The response to the August Fastrack ldquoWhat Do You Thinkrdquo request for comment on the proposal to add the Honda Fit engine to Formula Ford has been largely positive The recommended rules changes below provide the specifications for that engine as it would be used in FF if member comment is sufficiently positive and the BoD approves them There are some dimensions and part numbers that are listed as ldquoto be supplied by HPDrdquo In some cases HPD did not have time to provide them In others final values will not be determined until production parts are available (The test engine installation was done with prototype parts) The complete engine package with production parts will be dyno tested before the final intake restrictor size and ECU map are set Because HPD will not begin production runs of castings and other components until after BoD approval engine kits are not expected to be available to competitors until about 2110 Thus the tentative effective date of the rules changes is listed as 3110 It is possible that this date will change after approval by the BoD

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

Honda Launches New Grassroots Motorsports InitiativeELKHART LAKE Wis (July 24 2009) ndash Honda Performance Development Inc (HPD) the authorized Honda and Acura auto racing company in North America today announced a new automotive initiative targeted at expanding its presence in the grassroots motorsports market The broad-based initiative will include the development of products and services that support competition in the amateur and entry-level professional ranks and will also include integrated marketing activities designed to raise the profile of Honda Racing and HPD

CRB Releases Suggested Rules Wording for Honda Engine in FF(August 11 2009)Honda Fit Engine in Formula Ford Proposed Rules

The following information will be published as suggested rules changes in the September Fastrack Because these proposed rules represent a major change for Formula Ford the

CRB is releasing the information now to give the membership as much opportunity to consider it as possible

The response to the August Fastrack ldquoWhat Do You Thinkrdquo request for comment on the proposal to add the Honda Fit engine to Formula Ford has been largely positive The recommended rules changes below provide the specifications for that engine as it would be used in FF if member comment is sufficiently positive and the BoD approves them There are some dimensions and part numbers that are listed as ldquoto be supplied by HPDrdquo In some cases HPD did not have time to provide them In others final values will not be determined until production parts are available (The test engine installation was done with prototype parts) The complete engine package with production parts will be dyno tested before the final intake restrictor size and ECU map are set Because HPD will not begin production runs of castings and other components until after BoD approval engine kits are not expected to be available to competitors until about 2110 Thus the tentative effective date of the rules changes is listed as 3110 It is possible that this date will change after approval by the BoD

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

CRB Releases Suggested Rules Wording for Honda Engine in FF(August 11 2009)Honda Fit Engine in Formula Ford Proposed Rules

The following information will be published as suggested rules changes in the September Fastrack Because these proposed rules represent a major change for Formula Ford the

CRB is releasing the information now to give the membership as much opportunity to consider it as possible

The response to the August Fastrack ldquoWhat Do You Thinkrdquo request for comment on the proposal to add the Honda Fit engine to Formula Ford has been largely positive The recommended rules changes below provide the specifications for that engine as it would be used in FF if member comment is sufficiently positive and the BoD approves them There are some dimensions and part numbers that are listed as ldquoto be supplied by HPDrdquo In some cases HPD did not have time to provide them In others final values will not be determined until production parts are available (The test engine installation was done with prototype parts) The complete engine package with production parts will be dyno tested before the final intake restrictor size and ECU map are set Because HPD will not begin production runs of castings and other components until after BoD approval engine kits are not expected to be available to competitors until about 2110 Thus the tentative effective date of the rules changes is listed as 3110 It is possible that this date will change after approval by the BoD

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

From Topeka

Honda Launches New Grassroots Motorsports InitiativeELKHART LAKE Wis (July 24 2009) ndash Honda Performance Development Inc (HPD) the authorized Honda and Acura auto racing company in North America today announced a new automotive initiative targeted at expanding its presence in the grassroots motorsports market The broad-based initiative will include the development of products and services that support competition in the amateur and entry-level professional ranks and will also include integrated marketing activities designed to raise the profile of Honda Racing and HPD

The new program will ultimately include an array of products and services for Honda and Acura customers who compete in amateur and professional racing These products include both original equipment parts and racing-performance parts

Competitors may register for the Honda Racing Line club and gain access to the parts catalogue through a website portal HondaRacingLinecom Additional Racing Line membership benefits will be announced as they are developed

HPDrsquos new grassroots motorsports initiative also supports the fans of grassroots racing through an integrated marketing plan focusing on fan identification with the Honda Racing brand through merchandise sales and additional services

CRB Releases Suggested Rules Wording for Honda Engine in FF(August 11 2009)Honda Fit Engine in Formula Ford Proposed Rules

The following information will be published as suggested rules changes in the September Fastrack Because these proposed rules represent a major change for Formula Ford the

CRB is releasing the information now to give the membership as much opportunity to consider it as possible

The response to the August Fastrack ldquoWhat Do You Thinkrdquo request for comment on the proposal to add the Honda Fit engine to Formula Ford has been largely positive The recommended rules changes below provide the specifications for that engine as it would be used in FF if member comment is sufficiently positive and the BoD approves them There are some dimensions and part numbers that are listed as ldquoto be supplied by HPDrdquo In some cases HPD did not have time to provide them In others final values will not be determined until production parts are available (The test engine installation was done with prototype parts) The complete engine package with production parts will be dyno tested before the final intake restrictor size and ECU map are set Because HPD will not begin production runs of castings and other components until after BoD approval engine kits are not expected to be available to competitors until about 2110 Thus the tentative effective date of the rules changes is listed as 3110 It is possible that this date will change after approval by the BoD

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently

National Tour Solo hosted by the Finger Lakes Region

June 12-14 was the first Solo National Tour at Seneca Army Depot We ended up with over 230 drivers which is more people than we have ever had at Seneca at once as far as I can guess Excitement happened before the event even started in the form of a torrential rainstorm that started around 3 pm on Thursday and didnrsquot let up until noon on Friday Since we had to start setup around 730 am on Fridayhellip that made things interesting At least we all got to test the efficiency of our rain gear

Friday morning started with a small Evolution Performance Driving School led by Ron Bistrais and Corey Ridgick The practice course was used for instruction and timed runs Special thanks to Chris Morton who fixed the timing box (in the rain) just in time for the school More competitors arrived on site through the late morning as the rain cleared up While the setup crew was putting the main course together the practice course was getting heavy use seeing around 400 runs in the time that it was open Tech was up and running throughout the day the course opened for walking mid-afternoon and during registration we were treated to a delicious dinner of party subs from the Downtown Deli in Seneca Falls

Competition went relatively smoothly on Saturday Sprinkling rain started sometime during the third heat but went away It came back with a vengeance during the fourth heat leaving many drivers without a dry run on the Saturday course As it always seems to happen the rain stopped just in time to clean up for the day as the setup crew changed the course for Sundays competition Again Sunday went well with the exception of the sound meter giving up -- apparently
