The 08-09 FORGASS Series has been a great success. We had great races all season long.

1-The Live RC with real time scoring and video was a great addition for our friends from all over the world to be able to tune in and follow the action as it was happening.
2-Thanks to all the track owners for giving the racers some of the best facilities, fair racing, and great traction that makes the FORGASS Series so special.
3-Thanks to all the racers from near and far who participated to make this Forgass Series something special. All of you are winners.
4-A special thanks to all the FORGASS Officers and their aids that coordinate and make all of this happen, beginning with scheduling, calculating points, technical inspection, fair enforcement of the rules and and any other things that may arise under their watch.
5-This year we had a banquet dinner with great food, fantastic trophies, and great special awards that were over the top!

Wow! what a great 08-09 Season! I can hardly wait for the 09-10 FORGASS Season to begin!

I will like to thank Forgass for the awesome season. All the people involved did a great job. Congrats to the track owners. Every race we had excellent conditions to race, very consistent and a lot of traction in every facility. Thanks for your effort, it's really appreciated.

I think we have by far the best series in the Nation. The level of competition, the facilities, the people…. and it’s getting even better

Congrats to Pete Pepe for the award. You definitely improved a lot this year. I was really impressed with your skills this weekend. First time out with the 1/8 scale at the Fort and already hitting 12 second laps... speech less...
Congrats to DJ, you have come a long way and getting ready to be one of the best in the World.
Last but not least, all the people that help me during this season, too long to name but here we have a few…. Doug, DJ, Rick, Maxy, Pete, Eduardo, Felipe, George, Jerry, etc. etc…….list is way too long..You know who you are, thank you all
Looking forward for the next season, with new challenges, but even more important, with more will to have fun and share with my friends.

PD: Thanks Rick and Howard for the pits yesterday. Between the bugs in my eyes, the hot weather and the heat of the race I lost a little bit my cool….. Sorry if I make people felt uncomfortable in the driver stand. It won’t happen again…

Guys
Ronnie and I would have loved to have been there, but our son got married this weekend. Our two younger boys were in the wedding. It was awesome. Im sure you know that we could not have missed it however Ronnie was sure missing you guys and the racing. He wouldnt say it but he kept dropping hints!!! I was afraid he was going to try to sneak away!! Anyway, We would have love to have been there, it looks like you guys had a great time.
I know Ronnie had a great time all year long and looks forward to future races. Not to mention being the winner in the GT class, that certainly boosted his ego!!
Thank you again to everyone in Forgass, it was a great year

Thanks,
Ronnie and Kim

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone that makes the series possible. I know most of us do not say it but we appriciate it, at least I do. I know I really don't say it much, but a big thanks to all of you. The Forgass Officers, track owners (and their crew) and the racers.

I had a good time this weekend just hanging out. It was cool to see the racers outside of the track and I had some good laughs. I must give a special thanks to the hardest working man in the series, David Larry. You go above and beyond the call of duty. Thanks again!!!!!!

Hope everyone is able to come back next year. I know the economy is hitting all of us pretty hard, but this is our escape. See everyone after the summer and have FUN racing.

Forgass Sour Grape Race

I got to say what a weekend but first thanks to everyone involved in the success of this fun racing event with a small amount of stress also participation of a bunch of great driver. Dinner was really good with a fare price for my family and love my new BIG trophy Thanks Forgass.

Ha yeah what a weekend starting with my dog Willy having a stroke Friday, he is ok and back home and he will get better. I think he got mad because I was not taking him to the race, and then we got a late start Saturday morning which turned out to be lucky with a phone call from DJ telling us the I-75 Alligator Alley was close and he had to turn around and use a different route and double the driving time. It was not a bad route at all but we were late and on a tight schedule and still those guys made the adjustment for everyone to have fun with no pressure thanks guys. But that is not it apparently someone was looking for some sedan tires and found my box of tires, looks like that person chose to keep them. 10 pair of tire, so no tires for the day oh yeah most of my friend were driving 1/8 scale so no tire for me. I got to say thanks to my wife and love you honey she when out of the way to bring me tires. But the day got better because my family arrive and the dinner was fantastic the trophy award was perfect.


Race day, well I made a few mistakes during the coarse of the day there is a saying you learn from your mistake. And I think I did!!! I will never put my feet in the pit lane ever this was strike 2 and I should of tell the Paolo that I didn’t put enough fuel in is car I was just going to bring him in and tell him later that didn’t work. It looks like I would of finish last if we had that pit crew race. I still manage to have fun and try different things with my car and abuse of DJ's knowledge with car setup. I feel very lucky to part of your group. The race organization is flaw less, we have the best driver in world driving in this event, there is not a single events that I didn’t learn something thanks everyone.

I wish everybody a good and safe summer and I will miss you, and can't wait for the next season.
