REPort Mike Toombs Regional Executive

to see a well-rounded board that is able to discuss everything that the region does; maybe next time. I have every conﬁdence that the ofﬁcers and board members will do a good job and I will be happy to work with them. If you are someone who only does one thing, take a chance and attend a Solo event, or stop by the racetrack or run a rally—I’m sure you won’t regret it. So, until next month… Mike

You have got to come to the September meeting! There is going to be a special extraordinary person running the meeting. I am going to be in Lincoln, Nebraska to attend the Solo Nationals and the Assistant Regional Executive John Walsh is going to be running the meeting. So you have to be there on the 7th of September so that you don’t miss out on the excitement. The Fun One is in full swing. Registration opened three days ago and we already have over 60 entries. Unfortunately, WGI has made it impossible to have the Saturday night party on the track. Elizabeth Thiel secured Klute Park in downtown Watkins Glen and we are going to continue our Pig Roast there. We are looking into getting some transportation to take people from the track to the party and back. I would hate to count the number of hours that have been spent organizing the race. Elizabeth and John Walsh have done a great job on the getting the race going and in putting together a great group of people to put on the 46th annual event – don’t miss it. Speaking of racing, the board of directors has been discussing what we should do with Westward Ho! As I mentioned last month we have never made any money on that race and this year we lost the most we have ever lost. We have probably hurt other regions putting on races at Nelson Ledges as well. Should we continue to put on the race in June, should we move it to another time of year or should we discontinue running it entirely? We were thinking that we could move it to October to make up for the two races that were cancelled this year, the Great Harvest and the Pumpkin, but we would only do that if neither of those races were scheduled for next year. If either race is run or even if neither is, I think we may be leaning toward canceling Westward Ho. We have put on at least 10 great events at Nelson Ledges and we would like to continue, but we might have to say enough. The nominating committee has put together a slate of candidates. I would like to thank John Morris, Gene Dinkel and Dave Avery for their help finding people to run for office. It takes a group of dedicated people to run the region, and I know that they tried to get someone from each area of interest to run for office, unfortunately it didn’t happen. I would like 4

Meeting Minutes Finger Lakes Region, SCCA General Membership Meeting Minutes August 3, 2010 Location: Burgundy Basin Inn, 1361 Marsh Road, Pittsford, New York 14534 Regional Executive Michael Toombs called the meeting to order at 8:11 p.m. The following are arranged by topic and are not in chronological order.

September 2010

The July 6, 2010, General Membership Meeting minutes as printed in the August 2010 issue of Top End, were approved on a motion by Barb Lissow, seconded by Dave Avery. Activities – Barb Lissow Nothing new to report. A site for the year-end banquet is undetermined at this time. Barbara continues to examine possible locations. Membership Report Twenty-six members were present for the Solo and General Membership meetings. Membership was down seven from last month to 465. Mini-Con – Elizabeth Thiel Plans are coming along. Sponsorship for the breaks is in the works; several have already been deﬁned A proposal has been given to Federal Express for sponsorship of a break. The region will be using their services, through a contract with the national SCCA office, to provide printing of promotional materials. They would be given recognition for the printing provided and a table would be provided for additional promotional material.

of future runnings of Westward Ho. One option is to move from the late June date to the fall. Nelson Ledges is currently heavily loaded with SCCA races in the spring and two events run in the fall have been cancelled for 2010. If either the Golden Harvest or Great Pumpkin events are run next year, we would not move to a fall date. Rescheduling would depend upon the availability of dates with at least two weeks separation and no other nearby races in conﬂict.

by the Citizens and Northern Bank will incur a ﬁnancial loss for the 2010 running. The spectator income from the Super Special was up 10% from last year. Save the dates of June 2 through 4 for the 2011 STPR®.

The other option is to not run Westward Ho next year. Westward Ho has not had a positive cash ﬂow in the ten years we have been running the event. Also, we may be diluting the entries in the other spring events held at Nelson Ledges.

Solo Report – Brian Buchman The Finger Lakes Region hosted the Tire Rack® SCCA Solo National Tour the weekend of July 9 through 11. The number of entries was nearly 250. Thanks to Marnie Soom and her horde of volunteers who made this event a success. Results were printed in the August issue of Top End.

Glen Region Double National Class winners and Finger Lakes Region member’s results were printed in the August issue of Top End. Several issues with the running of this double national race were discussed, as the Finger Lakes Region will be running a double national at Watkins Glen next year.

New Business John Morris asked that anyone wanting to run for a board of director’s ofﬁce contact him, Dave Avery or Gene Dinkel.

Fun One ’10 – John Walsh/Elizabeth Thiel The hospitality party will be held offsite at Klute Park. The possible use of shuttle buses to provide transportation for those who chose not to drive into Watkins Glen is being investigated. Holding the party at the park will allow us to hold our traditional pig roast. The current food vendor contract for WGI does not allow for other suppliers to come onto the site. Special event insurance will cover all but the hostess. A tent with table and chairs will be provided. Attendance was discussed.

John Walsh will be conducting the September meeting. Mike Toombs will be at the Solo National Championships.

Supplemental Regulations will be posted next weekend. (They are online at www.ﬂr-scca.com/race/2010/funone.)

2010 September

Event number four of the NY Shortline RallyRoad series has been rescheduled to September 11. (This event has been postponed and will be run next year. Ed.)

The fourth event in the Finger Lakes Region Solo series was held at Seneca Army Depot (SeAD) on July 25. Inclement weather kept the attendance down to 76. The fifth and sixth events in the region’s Solo series are scheduled for August 15 and 22, both at SeAD. Treasurer’s Report – Elizabeth Thiel Elizabeth reported on the amount in the checking account. Financial details are available from Elizabeth. All bills presented to date have been paid. A check has been received for the use of the STPR® trademark. Deposits have been received from Solo. Money for an overpayment to Nelson Ledges and a rental at SeAD have yet to be received. The meeting was adjourned at 8:55 p.m. on a motion by Dave Avery, seconded by Brian Barlow. Respectfully submitted, Carl F. Dresie, Secretary Bench Racing

Finger Lakes Region members assisted the Glen Region at their recent 5

July Sprints by serving as Chief Steward, Chief of Flagging and Chief of Sound Control in addition to a number of other subordinate positions. This may be the ﬁrst time that the Chief Steward for a Glen regional race was not a Glen Region member. The sound station status was clariﬁed as not being in a hot zone, thus allowing the youngest member of the crew to be on that station. The problem with the sound equipment experienced at Westward Ho did not occur at the July Sprints. Although at least one member likes the option of having the year-end party at the Holiday Inn on Brooks Avenue, another vetoed walking to the party. The July Board of Directors Meeting Minutes may not be complete and accurate due to poor penmanship, failing light and recorder failure. Not all discussions held during the meeting are reported due to various reasons.

Finger Lakes Region, SCCA Board of Directors Meeting Minutes

of the July 6, 2010, special board of directors meeting were approved on a motion by Barb Lissow, seconded by John Morris. Old Business We still need nominating committee members representing Rally and Solo interests. Race Report Westward Ho The status of the June 26-27 Westward Ho event was discussed. Several other events scheduled for later in the year at the Nelson Ledges track have been cancelled. Entries at many of the events are down with the economy and the number of events being probable factors in the decline. Options for Westward Ho in 2011 include moving to another date or discontinuation of the event. Date changes under consideration include October. Any dates should be coordinated with the Great Lakes Division. There is a need to rationalize the race schedule within the Northeast Division and to coordinate with the adjacent divisions. Westward Ho results were published in the August issue of Top End and on the website.

Glen National The three-day double national race at Watkins Glen was the only double national weekend in NeDiv during 2010. Watkins Glen again will have one of the two double national races in 2011. The Finger Lakes Region will host that event. This year’s event, conducted by the Glen Region, featured qualifying for both Saturday and Sunday’s races on Friday as well as in the morning of the races. Sunday’s afternoon races were shortened due to the need to repair guardrail. A summary of the results are printed in the August issue of Top End. Fun One – John Walsh and Elizabeth Thiel The Supplemental Regulations are complete and have been submitted for approval. The contract with the new food and concession stand operator does not allow us to bring in our own food. As a result a pig roast will need to be held offsite. Negotiations are underway with two possible locations. Transportation would be provided for those who choose not to drive.

July 27, 2010 Location: 753 Klem Rd., Webster, NY 14580 Mike Toombs called the meeting to order at 7:46:30 p.m. Ofﬁcers and directors present: Michael Toombs, Regional Executive; John Walsh, Assistant Regional Executive; Elizabeth Thiel, Treasurer; Carl Dresie, Secretary; Barbara Lissow, Activities Director; and John Morris, Director. Items are presented by subject and may not be in chronological order. The minutes of the June 29, 2010, board of directors meeting were approved on a motion by John Morris seconded by Barb Lissow.

Timing & Scoring – Carl Dresie The laptop computer used for timing suffered a hard drive crash. This was repaired at a cost of $202.50. Rally Report The Shortline Series RoadRally originally scheduled for July 17 has been rescheduled to September 11. (This event has been postponed and will be run next year. Ed.) Solo Report The results for the National Solo Tour run July 9- 11 were printed in the August issue of Top End. “Cards” were given to the participants to show the impact those events at the Seneca Army Depot site have on the local economy. These cards were given to the various merchants when making purchases. Mike Toombs will write a letter to the editor of the Finger Lakes Times pointing out the impact that Solo has on the region. These actions are taken as a rebuttal on the decision to stop renting the airstrip to all but the State Police. There was no information available on the July 25 Solo event at SeAD. Top End Report – Carl Dresie The mailing service used to send out Top End has changed. Our previous mailer, Ace Mailing Services, ceased business in July. Accelerated Mailing Services was suggested by Paul Kieffer at City Blue. Other options will be investigated. The change in mailing service and the delay in providing the service with a mailing list resulted in the August issue not reaching the post ofﬁce until after July 20.

Don't forget to renew

TOPEKA, Kan. (Aug. 17, 2010) – Sports Car Club of America, Inc. (SCCA) announced today that Mobil 1 has been named the “Ofﬁcial Oil of SCCA.” The partnership is designed to provide SCCA members with numerous benefits and will place Mobil 1, the world’s leading synthetic motor oil brand, firmly in front of the 45,000 members of the organization.

As part of the joint promotional agreement, all SCCA members will receive an exclusive 20 percent discount on product purchases at MobilRacingStore.com. “The Mobil 1 brand is synonymous with performance and motorsports across the globe and we’re excited to bring the SCCA and Mobil 1 together through this partnership,” SCCA Vice President of Marketing & Communications Eric Prill said. “We look forward to growing this new relationship for years to come.” “Since 1944, the SCCA has been bringing people together who are

September 2010

passionate about automobile racing and we’re excited to make Mobil 1 a part of that mission,” said Leah Ritter, marketing advisor, ExxonMobil Lubricants & Petroleum Specialties Company. “Whether it’s autocrossing, rallying or road racing, the SCCA is a home for racers of all kinds. Mobil 1 has a racing heritage in some of the world’s most premier racing sanctioning bodies, but this partnership allows us to reach out to the men and women who are wrenching on their own cars every weekend.” In addition to the discount for members, competitors using Mobil 1 products will be eligible for a sizeable contingency program, including cash and prizes, at the 2010 SCCA National Championship Runoffs® Presented by Subway at Road America. Under the agreement, Mobil 1 will have a presence at major SCCA National events, including the Runoffs and the Tire Rack® SCCA Solo National Championships in Lincoln, Neb.

SCCA Runoffs to be Live Online in 2010 TOPEKA, Kan. (Aug. 6, 2010) – Sports Car Club of America, Inc. announced today that the 2010 SCCA National Championship Runoffs Presented by Subway will again have all 24 races broadcast live world wide, on the Internet through SpeedcastTV.com. For the second-straight year, anyone with an Internet connection will be able to catch the drama as the best amateur road racers in North America ﬁght for the coveted National Championship in a one race, winner-take-all event that has often been referred to as the “Olympics” of motorsports. After four days of qualifying, some 650 drivers are expected to ﬁght for Championships in

2010 September

28 different classes at Road America, Sept. 24-26. “The feedback from the 2009 event coverage was tremendous and we committed to continue the relationship with Speedcast before the year was out,” SCCA VP of Marketing & Communications Eric Prill said. “As a collective group, we’re taking our experience and putting it toward improving the overall product and its delivery.” The biggest change will be the expansion to two announce crews. Sports car racing fans will recognize the familiar voices of veteran Runoffs announcers Greg Creamer, Dorsey Schroeder, Jim Tretow and John Bisignano throughout the broadcast. Current Runoffs racer Bart Wolf joins as the ﬁfth member of the broadcast team and will work the booth as an analyst alongside Creamer. “We’re thrilled to have such experienced, knowledgeable and entertaining personalities to call the Runoffs action,” Prill said. “Last year, we put a lot of pressure on one announce team to do all 24 races. They rose to that challenge, but with two teams, and the experience these gentlemen bring to the program, we know the 2010 broadcast will be a memorable one.” From a technical standpoint, the broadcasts will move to the Adobe® Flash® format, making it easier than ever for fans to view the action, be it on a PC or Macintosh operating system. "I'm thrilled to offer the SCCA Runoffs on SpeedcastTV for the second year in a row,” Speedcast Productions President Clark Cambern said. “The Runoffs live webcast was our most popular show in 2009, and we've been working hard with our partners at the SCCA to ensure that this year's coverage is even better." As was the case in 2009, all 24 races will be aired live through SpeedcastTV. com beginning Friday, Sept. 24 and concluding Sunday, Sept. 26. In the

weeks following the live broadcasts, each race will be posted to the Speedcast site for free On Demand viewing. Finally, a full DVD set of the races will again be available later in the year. The 2009 SCCA National Championship Runoffs races are still available at www.speedcasttv. com/scca. That same page will go live with the 2010 event Friday, Sept. 24 at 8:15 a.m. (Central).

SCCA at Rally-America event As avid motorsports fans and in many cases, participants, we’d like to let you and your friends know of an exciting new motorsports series taking place not too far from you – the Rally America US Rallycross Championship series at the New Jersey Motorsports Park (NJMP) in Millville, New Jersey! Through an exciting partnership with our friends at Rally America, Inc., the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) will be in attendance at these events with an information booth and a race car or two on display promoting all of our SCCA programs, including Rallycross. Although signiﬁcantly different from the Rally America Eurpoean-style wheel-to-wheel Rallycross events that will be taking place at NJMP, we feel that having a presence at these events will help to educate the general public regarding the SCCA and our many programs. With the Rally America US Rallycross Championship series taking place on the three separate weekends which include August 28-29, October 2-3 and November 6-7, we hope you’ll mark your calendars today and try to join us for what are sure to be some exciting weekends of wheel-to-wheel racing with purpose-built highpowered AWD and 2WD Rallycross cars and some of the best Rallycross drivers in North America and Europe! If you’d like to volunteer to lend a hand at the SCCA booth during these events or maybe even display your race or Rallycross car, please feel free to contact Pego Mack by sending an E-mail to pmack@scca.com For more details regarding the Rally America US Rallycross Championships, be sure to visit www.rally-america.com – if you’d like to purchase tickets to the Rally America US Rallycross Championship series on-line, please visit http:// store.njmp.com/store/category/9/157/2010RALLY-AMERICA/ . If you’d like to consider entering these events as a driver, please send an E-mail directly to Mike Hurst, Director of Competition at Rally America: mike@rallyamerica.com Sincerely, Pego Mack 12

NORTHEAST DIVISION SCCA MEMBERS TO MEET IN ROCHESTER FOR MINICONVENTION Contact: Elizabeth Thiel Tel: 585-671-9995 E-mail: 2010minicon@flr-scca.com The Finger Lakes Region of the Sports Car Club of America will host this year's annual Northeast Division Mini-Convention on November 12-14, 2010, at the Woodcliff Hotel and Spa in Rochester, N.Y. SCCA competitors, crew, administrators and other members from throughout the Northeast gather to plan out events for 2011, train new stewards, present divisional awards, and for some social time outside of the stress of a competition weekend. Regional Executive Michael Toombs said the region members were proud to once again host this event. "We hope that everyone will have a good time visiting the Finger Lakes area and our many attractions, from our wineries to the New York Wine & Culinary Center in Canandaigua and everything in between," said Toombs. "Then on Saturday, we will get together to work, learn and plan the upcoming year. So if you want to be involved and see a beautiful area of the country, stop by the weekend of November 12-14." The convention serves multiple purposes covering all the interest areas of the SCCA including racing, rallying and autocrossing. The regions work together to schedule and structure the 2011 divisional Club Racing schedule. There are also administrative meetings of various race series and divisional councils and stewards. Members are invited to inquire or speak out about issues and concerns during open forum sessions. This year's Mini-Con chairperson, Elizabeth Thiel, understands the importance of the social aspects of the weekend, which allows members to have some time away from business and to informally network with fellow motorsports enthusiasts. "Come join us Friday evening for our wine tasting followed by a welcome reception," said Thiel. "This is the time to reunite with longtime friends and meet new faces." One of this year's highlights is the Neohio Competition Clinic. According to Thiel, this widely-acclaimed program includes information to assist with vehicle dynamics, suspension setup, data acquisition and more, taught by Dave Weitzenhof, Bob Doemberg, and data guru Dave Scaler. For further information, visit the Finger Lakes Region's website at http://www.flr-scca.com/10minicon.html. There is a flier and registration form available for download. At this time, Elizabeth Thiel and her team are negotiating with seminar presenters for the various workshops; a tentative and final schedule will be announced as they become available. "Whatever your specialty we guarantee you will leave with new ideas, new contacts and new opportunities for the future," Thiel said. "It is a time for reflection of the past year and to prepare for a new season."

RallyCross The August 7 RallyCross event seemed to go well with 21 competitors recording times. Results are published in the September issue of Top End. Due to the increased interest in the RallyCross events a training program similar to that used in Solo will be instituted. Details are still being deﬁned by the RallyCross competitors.

Tom Langdon Interim RoadRally Chair

Rally Meeting Notes August 10, 2010 96 Church Street, Victor, NY

Seven RoadRally and RallyCross enthusiasts were present. The following discussions are grouped by subject. Spring, Summer and Fall Rallies Event #4 of the New York Shortline RallyRoad Series, scheduled for September 11 has been cancelled. The course has been written, but starting and ending locations could not be found. The plan is to run it next year when locations can be found. The October 17 event is still on the schedule. A flyer will be available for printing in the October issue of Top End and on the website.

Our RallyCross events are also reported on www.buffaloscooby.com. Winter Rally Series Current Winter Rally Series regulations state that two forward facing lights can be in use in addition to the headlights for a total of four. The two additional lights include fog lights or added driving lights. A request is being made to increase the number of additional lights to four. Vehicle codes need to be reviewed regarding the number of forward facing lights. Nothing was found in the SCCA regulations regarding the number of lights. A training rally is being planned for December. Dates and format have yet to be set. We are still at two and a half winter series rallymasters. Offers to help and possible repeat rallymasters were reviewed.

Past series sponsorship and promotion were reviewed. Performance Rally Side-by-side dirt racing action, big jumps and some of the best off-road drivers in the world will come to America in 2011 for an exciting new national championship series: RallyCar Rallycross. In conjunction with the new series, Rally America is also rebranding to RallyCar. The new identity for the organization reﬂects its increased scope as the premier sanctioning body for rally car racing events in the United States. In addition to the introduction of the Rallycross events, the organization will continue to sanction its traditional stage rally series in 2011 where the Rally America name will continue. Promotion for the Rallycross series will be undertaken by the youth motorsports specialists at Gale + Co. The press release can be found at http://rally-america.com/ news/latest/732/. Roy Hopkins and Adrienne Hughes will run the Targa Newfoundland in September 2010 in the “Blue Smurf”, a ’74 Dodge Dart. They will be running for the “Kids Eat Smart Foundation Newfoundland and Labrador” charity. Miscellaneous Discussions The Winter Rally Series uses speed groups to allow competitors to drive at a contnued next page

Rally Meeting Notes

continued from previous page slower and safer speed. When ﬁrst used, anyone running a slower speed was not eligible for series points. That changed when speed factors were introduced into the scoring. The Challenge series started between COCR and SCCA. At that time COCR was a major player in the Rochester rally scene. Separate results were created for members and guests. How many and which dogs eat chocolate cookies? Water mains are being replaced in Victor. This may require a change in route to the next rally meeting. Some discussions held during the meeting were not meant for publication, some were not ﬁt for publication and others are not relevant or worthy of publication.
