Hmmm, says they powered it with a lawnmower engine. Like to know what kind of lawnmower that was!

Re: September Event Chief Volunteers

Most of the normal tech and registration bodies are available. Worker Chief shouldn't be hard. I think the area to be looking at is who can we have shadow Rick Brown all weekend. A couple young bright people that can serve as total gophers for Rick both to ease his huge workload, but also to sponge...

Interesting: o The MAC has recommended adding a safety requirement for splitter edges. To that end, the following proposal is published for member review: Add new 3.3.3.B.23: “Bodywork protrusions below the bumper level (e.g. splitters) which extend beyond the outline of the fenders or bumpers when...

We also already have the logo digitized for embroidery (for the champ jackets front) that could be done on the left chest of a polo shirt for those that want something more than a t-shirt.

Max, I assume you want it in pink?

Re: T Shirts?

It is a CRX. The art was created many years ago for a memorial event for a young lady from our area (before SCCA I believe) who passed away. The original had all the stickers and the numbers she used. Her first name was Laurie, don't remember her last, and she drove a CRX so that's what the caricatu...

Re: T Shirts?

It would even be possible to add something like " Nationals Team " under the logo on the front for those who want them. Adds nothing to the cost and can be deleted on the regular shirts. Also, the overall cost should be a good bit less than $15. The shirts I do for the Pro and Tour and sel...

I'm sure others have already done this at some point in the past, but would anyone be interested in CalClub t shirts? I've seen event-related shirts, but I don't recall having a regional type thing.

STS2 shows up as ST2. Dates back to our old software that limited class names to 3 characters (plus an L for ladies).
