Nov 28th: Ladies School

[Brandon Fitchett]

how many ladies are signed up? Any danger of filling up yet?

Lots of seat time guaranteed?

[Mako Koiwai]

Plenty of room. Some of the gals don't take all of their runs because they get so many! We'd love to see your lovely wife join us on Saturday! ... ya, U2

Thanks KJ . . . Grace here. I mailed my check on Monday, Nov. 23rd. Instead of paying another $15 for the weekend reg fee though, can I just register and pay the full amount to become a member? See everyone this Sat!

I'm not positive on the membership deal - how to get the credits. I think you can if you go online at scca.org. Just bring a print out with your number. It will take forever to get a card.

I'm sending in registration today for

Diana Hang
and
Ann Webster

They both attended the novice school, and liked it enough to do it again. I'll be pit boy for them!

Thanks!

Duh... mail sent today won't get there until Saturday anyway. Is it ok if I bring checks for these two ladies?

Also, here's the cars they're driving:

Diana Hang - 2005 Honda Civic Coupe, no prior autocross experience other than the novice school
Ann Webster - 2002 VW Jetta 1.8t, no prior autocross experience other than the novice school

Thanks!

That's fine.

Looks like it might rain (showers) on Sat!
What will happen if it rains?

[Mako Koiwai]

The cars slide at slower speeds ... lots of Fun!

[Aaron Goldsmith]

Events are rain or shine, though i'll be jealous since we never get rain practice

[Steve Ekstrand]

The rains looks to be just a chance of a passing shower, so no biggy.
We run rain or shine and especially for practice or schools wet pavement is very valuable for learning!!! Big rain can make for logistical headaches, but this weather threat looks perfect, moderate temps and only occasional showers if at all.

I'd suggest layering cloths and bringing something light as a rain coat. Not much cover other than inside your car.

[Jay Sato]

Looks like Sherry Sato will have to cancel. Sick. Erg.

We were so looking forward to this event.

My wife Sherry Sato sent in payment. Any way to confirm the check made it?

[Katianna Pihakari]

Make sure your tires have at least 35 psi air in them ... then will further inflate as the tire gets warm. You don't want to have a low tire like the front driver side tire in this photo:

lol.... And there it is again! Mako - I am glad you cherish at least one photo of me :heyes:

[Katianna Pihakari]

Karen thinks Katianne P said she was going to do the Ladies School

And Karen was and is totally correct. I will be there tomorrow morning early. With my rain gear!

[Christine Grice]

Looked like everyone was having tons of fun and getting lots of runs! They even got some rain practice. It is just as fun to be an instructor as it is to be a student, I get to watch all my students improve during the day.
:gpower: :gpower: :gpower:

Thank you for a great event!

[Collin Webster]

Well it was great fun to see everyone out there having fun! I was working grid all day, and it was great to get to know the different ladies, a real treat. Some folks got ~20 runs in, which is fantastic! I know my wife Ann and her cousin Diana both had a blast and learned a lot. Ann was living large, having dropped 8 seconds during the day to get down to a 62.7. The only low point was the end of the day when I got my two runs and ended up with a 60.2 :king:
Still not 10 seconds faster, but it gave her the urge to keep trying and get faster!

Thanks to all the organizers, this was a well run event!

Sincerely,
Collin Webster

[Mako Koiwai]

Katianne apparently got 23 runs, and it wasn't enough. She was back for todays race.
