Spooktacular 2005

[urtoslo]

Spooktacular preparations are underway!

The flyer is located at:

http://www.nvcorvetteclub.com/nvcc/spook/Spook2005Registration.pdf

Feel free to fill one out and send it to me, and that's if you are running or working!

Let me know if there are any questions.

[Patracer]

How do I obtain the NCCC high speed license? I participated in the HPDE in June and have that write up by the instructor, what else will I need? [:-/]

[wazzzup]

Drej, I'm working on a couple more volunteers for ya buddy! [;)]

[urtoslo]

How do I obtain the NCCC high speed license? I participated in the HPDE in June and have that write up by the instructor, what else will I need? [:-/]

Are you an NCCC member yet, ie you have a NCCC number? If so, you will be getting an NCCC high speed license. If not, then you will still be ok, as we are tracking all the drivers from the school to make sure they are qualified to do high speed runs. Your instructor signed off on your passing the basic skill required to obtain an NCCC license. However, NCCC licenses are only given to NCCC members.

[jpatrick]

Yes, Patrick is a NCCC member.

[z06racing]

How do I obtain the NCCC high speed license?

Again, please click below if you are a current NCCC license holder. This will show if your license has expired. Only if it HAS, can I issue a new one. First timers, (NCCC only) who have received a "PASSED" student sign off from the HPDE, will get a license card from me before the SPOOK. Like Andrej said, non NCCC students will be tracked and those who have passed, will be allowed to run the SPOOK, without a HS license.

I've been trying to fix it for him, but the picture is a little blury to work with.

[CHJ]

All Right !! My entry is in the mail. More events this year = more fun. Will the format be the same as last year - 2 runs per event ?? Can we run one direction the first day and reverse the second day ??

[urtoslo]

All Right !! My entry is in the mail. More events this year = more fun. Will the format be the same as last year - 2 runs per event ?? Can we run one direction the first day and reverse the second day ??

Yup, same format as last year. We are running both directions this year, clockwise on Sat and the opposite on Sunday.

Tech is at the Towne House Motor Lodge on Friday night, as well as Sat morning at the track. Come by Friday night and get it done there. It is outside of Rm 335, where we have hospitality.

Saturday after the runs are done, we'll have a trophy ceremony for the fast time for a guy and a gal. Then we'll have the corner worker party, all invited!

Sunday, we start again in the opposite direction, ending with another trophy ceremony for the fasted guy and gal going the other direction.

Look forward to seeing you there!

If there are any errors, please let me know.

For those that are local, we will be having a shop night at Koons Chevrolet on Wed Sep 28 for last minute work and tech for Spook.

We are still looking for workers and drivers. Still need a couple of starters and timing trailer helpers, to name a few. Also, please pass this information to those that may be interested.

More information will follow in the next week or so.

Let me know if there are any questions or concerns.

We at NVCC look forward to seeing you in October!

Andrej, I told Mike W that I would help with tech, and I don't see his name as a driver. Or is it he hasn't registered yet? [:-/]

[z06racing]

Corvetters,We're about three weeks out from Spook 2005 and things are shaping up nicely!

Lets everyone check their current HS licenses for expirations... and Andrej: go over the HPDE list from June and let me know who needs a new one.

Remember the current list is on the East Region Home page.

[:D] SEE YA SOON!

[wazzzup]

Hey Brian, is there anyone else in your neck of the woods coming down for this event?

[wazzzup]

Drej, any more entries?

[urtoslo]

A couple more, and a couple of cancellations too. We've got about 30-35 signed up right now.

This is the first year where I haven't had a deadline and price increase at the deadline, so maybe everyone is waiting till the last minute.

Right now we are still loosing money.... [:-&]

[jimk351c]

I'm coming up October 2nd to watch some folks run with the Vintage Racers Group on Shenandoah. If it is OK, I'd like to drive one of my Cougars over to Jefferson for a bit and watch you folks on the track. Would anyone mind that?

Wow, 4 speed Cougars are hard to find, especially Eliminators. This is actually an XR7 that I modified to look like an Eliminator. I have changed it over to a 5-spd so that I can shift gears :-)

Nothing Brian. He's screwing wit' your mind. He's mixing apples and oranges again. http://www.crossroadonline.com/modules/PNphpBB2/images/smiles/eusa_wall.gif

He's talking about entrants in the November HPDE in a Spook thread.

Yeah, that's a great looking car. Are you bringing that car out to our event?

My Eliminator originally came with the Boss 302. It had a 351 Cleveland by the time I got it. It's just one of the cars that I once owned and wish I still had now.

[jimk351c]

Yeah, that's a great looking car. Are you bringing that car out to our event?

I'll probably be driving it up that day. It isn't ready for any track time yet, but I do have some suspension mods planned for the winter time. I'm hoping to open track it at next years SAAC convention @ VIR. And, if you guys will have me, perhaps even some NVCC events.

It used to be common for Boss Cougars to loose their powertrain for Mustang restorations. Boss cats are selling for serious dollars these days though, so that isn't really happening often any more. In fact, one just sold a few weeks ago for $85k!

Does anyone know if i can park an RV at spook for Saturday Night vs. staying in the hotel?

Someone let me know...

Thanks,
Phil

[Black396]

Camping is allowed at Summit. No electric hookups on the Jefferson side. Depending on how big it is... some people park down by the carousel. I've seen open fires there, not sure if they have fire pits though.

I know a couple of us were planning on camping. No showers at Jefferson either but there are over at the main track.

If your RV has all the amenities that you need, you should be good to go.

[mufflerbearings]

It is a 35' with generator and battery backup and directv... i think i will be okay...

PARTY ON!!!

Costs vary based on weekday versus weekend, BSR supplied workers, amount of insurance coverage, etc.

Andrej can probably provide the specific details when you stop by this weekend.
