Ok.
Four is good.

Bob, Loren, Jeremy, Dave. The fate of G rests in your capable hands.

How much time do y'all want to put yer heads together and make a plan?

Soo.. who's going to plan this meeting?

We need to hurry since the Miata's are beating the S2000s now, I want to get away from them. (yes that last part was a joke, the first part is a fact)

Jeremy started the topic... and you were the last to ask about it... so, I vote for one of you two! 8)

I'm usually free most evenings and weekends, just let me know where.

Well this really started from Bob's statements :P

Right now I'm busy saturdays for hockey (morning and evening, afternoons can be ok) and will be going to VIR June 9/10, and the lemons race in july. Other than that, I can find time on sundays or evenings.

Bob/Jeremy?

I'm not running this show. Whatever works for everyone. It might help if Steve defined our parameters. Are we JUST making changes to class G? Or are we restructuring the FAST "unmodified" class structure? Personally, I think the two go hand in hand.

Organizing the VIR event, will probably drive the lemons car a bit there as well, driving in the lemons race. I think Loren and some other FAST members will be there as well, so I'll have to make sure to run into them a few times :)

3/4 of the committee agree it makes no sense to adjust G and not the other stock classes. So I guess y'all are re-vamping all the stock classes, then!

Never heard from bob.

Anyways, I'm leaving for VIR this weekend, so can't do anything this weekend. That leaves one weekend before the autox weekend, or we could just plan a date during the 6/21 autox which seems fairly logical.

It's difficult to hold a meeting during an autocross, but we might be able to pull it off during lunch or something. Or maybe after the event? Head over to Denny's for a sit-down?
