Default ECHC Donation/Beer fund?

From another thread, posted by RoadRacer:

"Scott, who has had a lower back injury, jury duty followed by 14 hour work days to catch up, the ECHC, a brother with a new baby, and has a disassembled race car in his garage. So yeah... my meter is peaked."

Being someone living on the Left Coast, and having the utmost respect and enthusiasm for those organizing the ECHC, and wishing to support it in some way, but not really seeing any way to do so, I've been thinking, maybe someone should set up a paypal account or something that individuals like myself can toss small donations at in order to help out with expenses, or just buy some and pizza for the guys that make it possible, in hopes that the series will be a success and that the idea will spread and someday reach the Left Coast.

Thoughts?

-Mike

Scott and Karl REALLY like beer.

Scott, think you left someone out (that likes beer).

Mike - I think that is probably one of the nicest comments I've heard in a long time(helping out tossing in small donations). Hat's off to you. If you're ever down this way, I'll be more than happy (sure others will too) to buy you a beer .

How about an "unemployed Honda Challenge driver's fund"?

Waaaaaaitaminute.........I remember not too long ago there was a small thread going, where a few of us over here who WOULD be willing to make the trip. SOMEONE from over there said that if we came, the beer would be on them.

John - our policy with beer is "If some is good, more is probably better."

No no...

That's your personal policy with Malt Liquor. It has nothing to do with beer.

The official beer policy is "Beer is good. Good beer is better."

Scott, who chooses Sammy's Summer Ale on hot days and Guiness on cold ones.

I would tend to think that if West coasters made the trip out... and hotel space would be provided.

Well, that's the problem that prompted me to start this thread. I don't think I'll ever make it to VIR. Unless maybe there's an NSXPO there.

Hrm. Maybe I should use some of my Delta Sky Miles.

doesn't a certain sanctioning body provide liquid refreshment Saturday evenings?


Mike- that is definently a noble thing to do in my eyes and if you guys support it that much and want it that much it will happen

Nobody (but me... duh) can drive my car until November 4, 2002 I stood in the paddock and watched it go backwards through the dirt at about 110mph on November 4, 2001, and I need at least a year to recover from that.

Hey .. we should start a Honda-Tech exchange-a-seat program. I'll gladly trade seat time in my car at any east coast track to you left coast bastards in exchange for some laps at CA tracks in yours.

What, no Belgian beers? No Duval? What about a Delerium Tremens? They come in a neat bottle

Chris, who doesn't drink, but has been told that raspberry lambic makes a great "breakfast beer" whatever that is.

OK, Diane can think I'm cute.
Chris is just making me feel homophobic, in a teddy bear piranha kind of way.

Rice, Rice! I'm in his head! Not in the way he's in YOUR head, but... hey, it's a distraction of SOME kind. LOL.

~Chris, whose gf will probably be curious as to how he came up with something as inane as "teddy bear piranha"
