That topic has been discussed, but it's one more worker position to fill, so we're hesitant to commit to it. For now, the sign idea is a good one if Eric wants to oblige.twistedwankel wrote:OR just have one worker assignment be Waiver Person who sits at the gate until relieved and checks wrist bands and makes new arrivals sign up or stand outside.

Push Harder - Drive as close to the limit of your tires as possible.

Re: 13 November SPC
We make every possible effort to assign folks who identify themselves as having physical limitations to duties that fit those limitations. If you're willing to come out early, pre-register early and volunteer for registration or tech. If just running is a problem, there's also setup or teardown. We can still use folks willing to train on the timing system. And as long as we can assign 2-3 people per station, the station captain shouldn't be doing too much running -- although they should be able to get out of the way.twistedwankel wrote:OR just have one worker assignment be Waiver Person who sits at the gate until relieved and checks wrist bands and makes new arrivals sign up or stand outside. Nothing like having directions upon entry. Getting to be lots of folks with gamie knees doing this racing stuff who cannot run after cones.

Re: 13 November SPC
Everyone please note that we adjusted the course to take care of a safety concern -- it's not a huge adjustment, but there's a revised map posted.

Re: 13 November SPC
OK... just a dumb set of questions from the newbee...
What time does the event typically finish?
What time does the final course break down typically end?
Sorry for some very mundain questions but I looked... and can find alot about start time but I was unsuccessful in finding end times

End times can vary from as early as 2:30-3:00 (very rare these days) to as late as 5-5:30. Usually somewhere in the middle.rab wrote:OK... just a dumb set of questions from the newbee...![]()

For SPC events, a group of us usually head over to Beef O'Brady's for a bite afterward, so if you plan on 6pm or so, you'll have plenty of time for that, too!
Of course, if you've got stuff to do, once you've completed your run group and your regular work assignment, we don't mind if you leave. Going that route, it's rare that you'd have to be there later than about 4pm. If you happen to drive in the first group and get one of the "setup" work assignments, you could be done by noon.
How's that for a "pretzel logic" answer?

Thanks Loren,
I think I have been dealing with the fuzzies for too long that actually made sense.

Re: 13 November SPC
I've got a question myself??? i plan on showing up as a walk on..I paid for a prior event and was unable to show up due to me having to work. Who do I talk to about being credited for this event.
I will be running in the Street tire class, instead of the Race tire class ..

Re: 13 November SPC
If you make the walk-on cutoff, just mention it to registration. They'll probably ask me. Remind me what month that was.98bullet wrote:I've got a question myself??? i plan on showing up as a walk on..I paid for a prior event and was unable to show up due to me having to work.

Re: 13 November SPC
I'm going to guess that either Steve didn't get them in time, or for whatever reason wasn't able to post them. Unless he posts them today, we'll just have to fill them out at registration.puncturina wrote:Still looking for reg forms and waivers
