Default 100+ drivers ... SCCA Geneva Event

I know many East Coast SCCA people may not visit this board but I just want to say thank you to those who do; the event went well yesterday.

Sure there was the gate problem and we started a little bit under the gun but with what was said to be over 100 drivers to still finish up by 5pm on a 50 second + course ... nice job to everyone out there.

To the food vendor, you guys are really good. The food prices were not off the chain. Thank you for coming out especially to a venue where there really is nothing for miles.

Alex it was nice to meet you and your friends.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

3 or 4 runs? I almost went, but the laziness was too strong. If it was only 3 runs, then I am glad I didn't go.

Nice meeting you as well

I really liked the 4-run group layout as opposed to the 3-group one we normally use. Allows for some rest between running and working, or extra time to take pictures.
