Meeting MinutesFinger Lakes Region, SCCA General Membership Meeting MinutesMay 1, 2012
Location: Murph’s Irondequoit Pub, 705 Titus Ave., Irondequoit, NY 14617
Regional Executive Mike Toombs called the meeting to order at 8:10 p.m.
The following is arranged by topic and may not be in chronological order.
The April general membership meeting minutes as printed in the May issue of Top End were approved on a motion by Chris Bucknam, seconded by Charlie Tanck.
Activities - Mary HartmanMary Har tman wi l l p re sen t
information, pictures and videos describing her Petty Driving Experience at the June meeting.
The Ju ly Solo and genera l membership meetings will be at Camp Eastman on July 10, 2012. This picnic meeting will include membership recognition. (A flier for the picnic is printed in the June and July issues of Top End. Ed.)
Roy Hopkins and Adrienne Hughes will be presenting a program on the Targa Newfoundland at the August meeting.
A picnic is being scheduled for September, tentatively the 12th, for the “old drivers” gathering.
Mary Hartman asks that suggestions for social events be sent to her at [email protected]
Communication/Publications
The lack of articles published in Top End covering the different activities of the club and its members was discussed. At one time activity chairs wrote articles for Top End every month. Chiefs of specialty also wrote on occasion.
Links in Top End to videos related to contents were requested. Carl Dresie reviewed the differences between the print and web versions of Top End.
SportsCarJohn Walsh reviewed the points for
and against paper copies of SportsCar. Some members want the paper copy; some much prefer a digital copy; the paper copy is a significant expense to the club. The cost is approximately $14 per year per member. Tiered membership is part of the continuing discussion.
Membership Report
Thirty two members attended the Solo and general membership meetings.
The region currently has 414 members, an increase of one since April 3.
Well this month caught up with me a little too quickly. I had planned on writing this column prior to going to the NEDiv Divisional event, but found that I kept getting distracted. Then I decided that I could do it while at the championship event, but I got sick and found that just trying to compete took everything I had.
So here I am holding up Top End so that I can get this column written.
As I said I attended the NEDiv Solo Championships on May 13 and 14. The event was at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. There were seven people from the region attending this event, Tina and Brian Reeves, Steve Hayward, Ron Fish, Paul and Julie Shaver, and myself. The event site is something we would kill for up this way and it is cool that you can see the Empire State Building and the One World Trade Center while walking the course. Things went well on Saturday, for the event if not for me, but there were some issues on Sunday away from the event site that had nothing to do with SCCA, but ended up stopping our event only a third of the way through. What sounds like a bad thing was a good thing for me – I felt so bad I just wanted to get home and sleep.
Westward Ho! is in full swing and Wilma Giesy is taking registrations for our race at Nelson Ledges. For a number of years we put on this event and never were able to break even. Last year we didn’t put on the race, but Lew Giesy and a group of people put forth a concerted effort that we should try again. So the event is on and we will be going there again in June. If you
look at the supplementals (http://www.flr-scca.com/race/2012/westward) you can check out the number of times you can have on track. If you were looking for a good race weekend, you had better make it to this weekend. Don’t forget, if you enter the race you will get a discount when you enter the Fun One race at Watkins Glen in September.
We have a couple of meeting notices that you should make note of! During our June meeting we will have a presentation by Mary Hartman about her Petty Experience this past March. Our July meeting has been moved to the 10th and will be a picnic. The region will supply hotdogs and hamburgers, members (or guests) need to bring their own drinks and a dish to pass. We did this last fall and had a great time. I hope that people will bring out their interesting cars so we can all get to see them.
I had better get this finished so it can get to Carl for the June issue of Top End then on to the presses.
Until next month,Mike

Race Report Jim Tyo commented that the race
content of Top End and the web site is lower than that for Solo and Rally. Mike Toombs stated that we all would like to see more racing articles. We need to find someone in the club that will be a race track reporter, writing content. Also, we could have members write articles about their experience at various race weekends.
It was noted that Chris DeMinco was a crew member at the Daytona 24 hour race. Is this an opportunity for an article?
Westward Ho!We have a sanction and the entry
information is online. The weekend has three sanction numbers, two for the double regional and another for the Enduro. By double dipping it is possible to have 13 on track sessions for this “race your butt off” weekend. Online registration is through MotorsportReg.com.
Expenditures are being minimized. Lew Giesy would like a donation of worker favors. He expects about 70 workers, more are needed.
Formula First will be a part of the weekend. They will run with the FVs but will start with a split grid. Formula First will also run at the Fun One.
Rally Report – Alan SmithCharity RallyKurt Thiel has volunteered to be
rallymaster for the Relay for Life Rally, benefitting the American Cancer Society. The rally will run Friday afternoon as part of the STPR® weekend.
STPR®
We currently have 31 entries; up from the number we had at this time last year. Entries could be in the 50 to 60 range. Bob VanSice will not be able to serve as Spectator Captain this year. His replacement needs to be named. Volunteers for positions ranging from spectator control to stage controls to “Barney Fife” assistant are needed.
Region Road RalliesThe board of directors would like to
have the club conduct rallies more along the lines of previous destination rallies. Participation by a wider spectrum of club members would help in unifying the club. Alan noted that we have had “fun” events scheduled the last few years. Promotion is needed and joint events are possible.
Solo Report The Solo meeting preceded the
general membership meeting. Notes from that meeting were not captured.
The driver’s school and first event of the series were held on April 21 and 22. Weather both days was cool and wet. The new layout of the course and paddock areas worked out well.
The school had 37 students and 14 workers recording times.
The first Solo had 104 entries. Again a very good course.
Upcoming events are an Out of Region event with Western New York at Ralph Wilson stadium on May 20. The second Solo in our series is scheduled for May 27 on the grounds of the Dome arena.
The official notification for Solo is moving to news.flr-scca.com. Longer range notifications will be printed in Top End.
Treasurer’s Report – Elizabeth ThielThe current checking account balance
was reported. A transfer of funds into checking was made to cover pre-event expenditures for Westward Ho, etc. All bills presented to date have been paid.
It was noted that Top End costs are between $700 and $900 per month. Mike Toombs commented that for the year 2011 the race, rally and Solo programs were positive resulting in an overall positive. Running Westward Ho instead of the national race this year will reduce the club’s income.
Financial statements are available for review from Elizabeth.
The financial report was accepted on a motion by John Walsh, seconded by Charles Tanck.
The meeting was adjourned at 9:23 p.m. on a motion by Chris Bucknam, seconded by Dave Ciufo.
Respectfully submitted,Carl F. Dresie, Secretary
Bench RacingThe full discussion of the various
items is not reported. Anecdotes regarding members experiences filling up the time spent are not reported. Libel laws are also a consideration.
The secretary regrets that multiple simultaneous conversations cannot be captured.
Syl Barlow had triple bypass surgery and will be going home soon.

The old driver’s meeting may be scheduled for Wednesday, Sept. 12 at the Scottsville Fire Hall. It will be done similar to the 2011 old driver’s picnic.
It has been suggested that we bring back the people from Central New York Raceway Park. Other suggestions have been made and more are welcome.
Mary Hartman raised the possibility of a “Fun Stuff” survey to determine what the membership would like to do. That includes events like the Daytona party held at California Brew Haus.
Old BusinessThe STPR® trademark has been
renewed for four years.
Race ReportNew Jersey state law requires that a
face shield by worn on helmets.
Westward Ho! 2012 The sanction has been approved. The
entry form will be up on MotorsportReg by the end of the month.
Fran McAllister and Dave Ciufo will get a flier prepared for distribution to adjoining region newsletters, web sites and regional executives. It will also be taken to upcoming racing events.
Fun One 2012 A race chair is needed.
Rally Report The STPR® Charity Rally will be
chaired by Kurt Thiel. The Relay for Life rally is on public roads, not forest roads, with closed controls.
Possible summer rallies, such as a “Destination Rally,” have been discussed along with a “Training Rally.”
Tony Zanni has requested dates for RallyCross events. The dates are the last weekend of the month through the summer.
Solo Report – Jeff ColegroveThis past weekend was the opening
weekend for the Finger Lakes Region’s Solo series. The weather was cool and wet for both the school and event #1. These events were held at Rochester Institute of Technology.
The Solo school was held on April 21 and had 37 novices entered. There were enough instructors and workers. The school wrapped up around 4:30. There were eight or nine students from the RIT car club and almost that many from RocLife (RocLife.org).
72012 June
FLR NewsMembership News and Information
The Solo on Sunday had 104 drivers registered. The event went very well, with four runs on a 65 second course. The paddock across the street worked well, but ideas for improvement will be applied at the next event. Again we wrapped up early, by about 4 p.m.
Mike Toombs proposed that any non-member who enters a Solo and joins SCCA will get that event for free. Details as to how this will work need to be defined. An additional worker needs to be assigned to registration to handle the membership applications.
A helmet raffle will be held at the beginning of the day for Solo events. Helmets with SA2000 or M2000 ratings are needed; the current supply of loaner helmets is down to five. Jeff will contact Tony Zanni regards the approved purchase of helmets for Solo and RallyCross.
Western New York Region only has four events scheduled this year.
Treasurer’s Report – Elizabeth ThielElizabeth distributed balance sheet
and profit and loss statements for review. The money transfer approved earlier has been made. The numbers from the Canandaigua National Bank investment plan were reviewed. Members should contact Elizabeth for further details.
All bills except for the club liability bill have been paid. They include the Nelson Ledges sanction fee, van insurance and KrydeRacing fee for Westward Ho and the Fun One.
Recent bills also include the Nelson Ledges deposit, Watkins Glen track rental, Top End printing and mailing costs.
The treasurer’s report was accepted on a motion by Dave Ciufo, seconded by Fran McAllister.
The meeting was adjourned at 9:02 p.m. on a motion by Dave Ciufo, seconded by Mary Hartman.

Devil in the DarkFinger Lakes drivers shine at the Devil in the Dark 12 hour race at the new Thunderbolt race track in New Jersey
The new Thunderbolt track is 2.25 miles of challenging, twisting curves with only one significant straight away. This track has been built with all the latest conveniences such as pit stalls with motel units above and an excellent restaurant and bar within the confines of the facility.
The team consisted of Kurt Thiel, Mark McAllister and John Williamson. The race started in excellent conditions but deteriorated the last five hours of the race with mostly scattered showers, sometimes severe.
It was the first time out for Kurt Thiel's new Miata and there were some minor debugging problems which were easily handled during practice and qualifying. The team qualified 35th, 18th out of 20 cars in their class. With each passing hour, the team moved forward finishing an amazing 11th overall and 5th in class.
The speed potential of the cars varied greatly, which is often the case with endurance racing. The fastest car, an Audi costing a half a million dollars, qualified in 1:27.475 minutes and the slowest car was almost 17 seconds slower.
The crew consisted of Mike Whalen, Marty Pietre, Fran McAllister, and Chris McAllister. The car ran perfectly, the pit stops went smoothly (fast enough to embarrass NASCAR pit stops) and a good time was had by all. We are already making plans for the 13-hour race at Virginia International.

Rally Meeting NotesApril 10, 2012
96 Church Street, Victor, NY
These notes are grouped by subject and are not in chronological order.
The following seven RoadRally and RallyCross enthusiasts were present; Rick Barnes, Carl Dresie, Jerry Kerwin, Tom Langdon, Alan Smith, Mike Toombs and Tony Zanni.
RallyCross SeriesCourse maintenance funds will be
used to repair the pit area at Perry’s Park. We need to find equipment to work on the pits and course. The pit area needs to be repaired. The ruts in the field can be worked around, if need be.
Tony needs to make arrangements to purchase the helmets previously approved by the board of directors. The new helmets will go to Solo and the older Solo units used at the RallyCross events.
The region’s schedule shows RallyCross dates, sites will be finalized later. A meeting will be arranged with the operator of the Warsaw-Perry airport.
Summer Rally SeriesThe poss ibi l i ty of wri t ing a
destination Monte Carlo style rally for late August will be taken to the board of directors. We can extend an invitation to a rally meeting to any interested board members. One possible ending point is the Glen Curtiss museum in Penn Yan.
Rick will be writing a social rally for Oct. 14.
These two rallies need to be publicized widely, to both club members and other clubs.
A training rally for the Winter Rally Series will be scheduled for an available date in November.
STPR®
The worker t-shirt logo has been set along with the cover. Tony can provide a higher resolution version of the logo if needed. The smaller bumper sticker design will be used.
Tony and Rich Smith will be checking the mileage on STPR this coming weekend during the radio check. Alan noted that a previous check of only part of the route has taken five and a half hours. Not all of the stages are as run last year.
DCNR (the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Resources) wants people to observe the 25 mph speed limit when driving the forest roads. (This does not apply to competition stages!) Alan also noted that alcohol can be brought into a camp in the forest, but not taken out. You either drink it or dump it. No drinking on public property!
The Waste Management stage will be the same as the Wellsboro Winter Rally. The gas well has been delayed until after STPR.
The charity rally needs to be publicized. Kurt Thiel has checked the mileage. Tom will call Kurt and cover what needs to be done. General instructions will be obtained from Matt Rhoades, the charity rallymaster in 2011, and numbers will be coming from New Jersey. An event on Facebook needs to be created for the charity rally.
Winter Rally SeriesTom has the paperwork in hand to run
a rally safety steward class.
Carl presented a set of suggestions for route calculations. These and input from others will be reviewed before the start of the 2013 Winter Rally Series.
Miscellaneous Discussions The general membership meetings are
now being held in Murph’s Irondequoit Pub, 705 Titus Ave., Irondequoit on the first Tuesday of the month. The July meeting will be at Camp Eastman on July 10 and will also be the membership recognition meeting.
We need to get new weekend membership forms. The form covers all of the information for a full membership. If someone joins at an event, their entry into the event will be covered by the club.
Tony commented on how we disseminate information. Tony will send information on mailchimp.com to Carl.
The Great Race will be passing through Fairport on June 28. Can we set up a booth?
String rallies are really simple once you grasp the concept.
Jerry navigated in the 2003 edition of the SORC. (Note: The Sandhills Open Road Challenge appeared on a recent showing of Hot Rod TV on Speed Channel. More information can be found on www. SORC.org. Ed.)
Tom is expecting a spice orange Mini to join the pumpkin colored one in the stable.
Rich is installing a hydraulic hand brake on the rally Civic.
A low spoiler may not be strong enough to move dirt on the RallyCross course.
A reminder that the lower A-arms on a Subaru may not be strong enough to be used when strapping the car onto a trailer.
Local residents, especially fire fighters, may be a good source for answers on “find the answers” RoadRallys.
Hand brake turns, biplanes, cute cars, wiener dogs, Honest Charlie’s Garage, etc. were discussed.
No submarine stories were told.

Near the end of their racing careers, a Ford and a Chevrolet made a pact. The first one to reach racing heaven would let the other know if heaven even had car racing.
As luck would have it, the Chevrolet was demolished in a fiery wreck. A few days later, it revealed itself to the Ford in a vision. "I have some good news and some bad news," the Chevy told the Ford. "The good news is that heaven is crazy about auto racing. They have everything here--NASCAR, Indy cars, Formula 1, you name it."
"So what's the bad news?" the Ford asked the deceased Chevrolet.
"The bad news is that you've won the pole position for next Saturday's race."
