If there is time, we will add Euro Truck as this year's demo class due to the high popularity of the class I witnessed in the Lower Mainland and Kelowna over the last couple races. So, please prepare your trucks, and we'll have a final answer as we get closer to the race. Note that I am completely unfamiliar with the rules for this class so I would fall back on the standard rules employed in Chilliwack and Kelowna.

2. Good question. Technically the rule is that you seal the tires in a bag so that they cannot be tampered with. Of course this rule is not there to thwart Alex but more to protect all racers from the 3% that want an unfair advantage with home tampered tires. I'll check with Josh to see what we can do here. Perhaps we need to check it by everyone else running TC Stock to ensure they are OK with it. Even then I'd be worried about setting a precedent for future events. Honestly I don't want to be difficult over something that I know will not matter either way, but I want everyone to feel as though they have an equal shot at whatever position they are competing for. I will get back to you.

Thanks,
Blake
My son is still a novice as this is only his second year racing so I'm hoping that this won't be a problem. Anyway, thanks for checking and please let me know the decision when you can.

Colin, good to hear from you - it has been a while! No problem on the shuttle; just let us know when you arrive.

Thanks,

I'm working on a new feature for WCICS Live - but for it to work you MUST have your phone number and your proper transponders entered into your registration online.

I will not be updating peoples transponders and numbers during the race weekend - so please make sure you do this now. Oh and remind your friends to do it too.

You don't want to miss this, trust me!

To update your registration with your phone number and transponders, do the following:

- Login to your WCICS profile (Login - WCICS - Western Canadian Indoor Championship Series 2017/2018)
- Go to the "Racers Area" (Racers Area - WCICS - Western Canadian Indoor Championship Series 2017/2018)
- Under your Profile add your mobile number and set "Notifications" to Text
- Click "Apply Changes"
- Go to "Transponders" (the menu on the left)
- Update this with all your transponders (you can add notes to remember which is which)
- Click "Apply Changes" when you're done entering them
- Go to "Registrations"
- Click "Victoria, BC"
- Click the check box beside all the classes you want to enter, then use the drop-down box on the right to select the transponder for that class.
- Click "Apply Changes"

Again, I will not be updating transponders for people DURING the race weekend - so make sure you do this before hand!

Hey all,

A couple of classes notes:

1. Euro Truck has officially been added to the program this year as the demo class. The rule-set is the "Lower Mainland Spec".

2. The Mini class and the F1 class are suffering from low pre-registrations. We really need five entries in these classes to make them viable.

Hey everyone!

Just a reminder that the doors are open at 3:00pm and NO pit setup will be allowed before that.

I understand that we failed last year in that some people setup in the back room and we didn't notice.

That will not be the case this year... no one will be setting up pits before 3.

Cheers!

Luke
