Default Crew School

Having gathered a bunch of tips and tricks about race car preparation and driving over the last 30 odd years, I am willing to put on a seminar to anyone interested to share these with you. Is there any interest?

I don't care what George is, but I'm interested. Sounds like fun.

Rule #1:
Crew for a nearly stock car.

Rule #2:
Sit back and relax while the highly modded cars break down.

Been there, done that. Got to sit on my butt and watch a good race. Check out the latest SportsCar, they even put a "thank you" ad in the back.

Anything to say, Mr Geezer? LOL...
Sorry, George, but I hold you to a higher standard.

We'll do it at the next ECHC race at Summit Point at the Hyperfest. Strictly informal, open to all. And again at the next race, if demand requires it.

(We'll cover stuff like gloves, pitting for a black flag and wheel weights.)

Ugh...

Just to verify, is the NASA HPDE really the weekend before the ECHC event at Summit? Or, is it actually that same weekend as the hyperfest and the race?

I know, that's what I was thinking as well. Hrm...I will still do my best to make it up to both weekends. However, the HPDE must take precedence for me...

Same here.

He knew what he was doing though. Most of the Virginia/DC/Maryland people will be doing everything possible to make it out there, twice.

Yep. LOL...
