CCR stuff before our first race…

#1

Folks,
Some items to consider before CMP. Barring some major outcry we’ll stick with our practice in previous years to allow 3 race (not weekends) drops for calculating the season championship points. This seems like a good compromise between rewarding some level of consistency and but also not overly penalizing bad luck. The CCRs are sort of clear about what races you can drop – in particular you CAN’T drop a race from which you’ve been DQ’ed ‘ as a result of ‘ “noncompliance” or “cheating.” ’ (section 22.2.1 NASA CCRs). Other DQ’s (not specified) are droppable.
Also just a reminder – check all your belts, nets, helmets, HANS, etc. for expiration dates before you get to the track. It can be a real pain to go to annual tech and find out something has expired the previous month – ask me how I know…
Please feel free to contact me with suggestions/advice for the new guy (director-wise). I’m at:

See you at CMP!
