My perspective might be different than others but I suspect not all that different so I decided to comment. I don't currently have the extra free time to come early to help set up, stay late to take down, or attend non-event meetings. I choose to use that time for other interests/priorities. I really appreciate that I can come drive, work a run group and go home. A huge Thank You to those that allow me to do this. I also agree that the pre-registration feels a bit excessive currently. I think it is a nice reward for those that ensure the safety and readiness of the events however. I don't believe that all roles are equal. I am ok with essential workers getting something extra. You work harder than I do and you deserve the reward. A list of essential roles would be good to keep everyone on the same page. Maybe this already exists. It would be good to give new people a chance to learn the essential roles as this will ensure the club continues to be safe and organized. A system that allows an apprenticeship with constraints (meaningful mistakes and missed events should be penalized) would feel like a good way to train. Those qualifying can then be rotated in/out of the roles at fixed intervals (seasons?). Good discussion IMHO. Glad to see the transparency.

Thanks for the feedback. I previously drove a '66 Mustang in CAM-T. I probably had 10 events on it so I honestly still feel like a novice. I used the chalk method on the Mustang and kept a log of air pressure and tire temps. I played with camber, caster and toe on the Mustang. I ended up getting it where I was happy with the performance. The Corvette is very different than the Mustang. The Corvette was an opportunity too good to turn down. With the Corvette I don't have triangles, I have Goodyear wings! See the pic. I went down to 19 psi in January and still did not reach the "triangle". This last session I ran 25 psi then kept the pressure at 23 psi. 23 felt about the same as 19 both being better than 25. The car is in CAM-S because it has a Lingenfelter GT21 cam with CAI, long tube headers and Corsa exhaust. I don't know who did the tune but it def pulls hard, while getting 25.5 mpg on the drive to AMP. Car was in my family for last 10 years but rarely driven. It only has 15k miles. Tires are new (300 miles) but next round I plan to investigate 18 inch wheels as the tire selection looks to be much better. I will play with camber a bit. Increasing negative camber on the Mustang was helpful as were the RE-71Rs!

Hi, I have just started driving a C6 Z06. I have fresh Goodyear F1s. Stock size 275 front & 325 rear. I am not getting a good indication as to when I am about to lose grip, especially true coming out of a corner. Looking to see what other Corvette's are using for tires & tire pressure. Thanks, Kevin

I'd like to get my children learning to drive in solo. SCCA appears to have a program. Have this program been discussed? Does it need someone to facilitate it? Thanks, Kevin

Dave, I sent you an email as well. I registered for C but was put in B. I am unable to make it to B. Can I still get in C or D? Thanks, Kevin

Today's course was a lot of fun. Well done!

Am I allowed to mount a GoPro or similar camera out in front of my car so that I can record my suspension movements over the course? It will be hard mounted to a bracket that is bolted to my car. Thanks.

I could hang out for an hour for afternoon check in if you need it.

I could help with morning check in. Thanks.
