Couple things that popped in mind this evening, have we decided if the regular Sunday program is running the old layout from last year, or is it the 1/5 layout? Secondly, on the subject of pitting, on the asphalt as we did last year, the hockey rink, or in the grass? I'm trying to be as prepared as possible come Sunday.

That being said, pitting for this Sunday will have to be in either the hockey rink or on the grass.....Grass still has to be cut as of today (Thurs) and expecting a bunch of rain on Friday....I will try to have a pitting plan as soon as I hear from our designated lawn care racing guy.....coughcoughRalphcoughcough....
If we pit in the hockey rink, people might be able to load/unload their stuff over the back wall of the rink, easing some congestion through the only door in the front wall....
Since this is a non points race, I will be looking at a lot of logistics and listening to suggestions to make the new layout work....

I wonder if the township would object to our cutting and hinging gate openings (not wide enough for a car) in the hockey rink wall utilizing the wood cut from the wall itself? That way we would have to park the full size cars outside the rink making the best use of the inside of the rink for racer's pit areas? My suggestion to where the opening would be would be the West end of the rink, and possibly another at the rear of the rink (the South wall).

Mike mentioned that also the other day, and I think that will be the best solution....Both ends of rink has chained link fencing on top, so the west end wouldn't work....

We're gonna have an "Odds and Ends" party at Wagner this Saturday afternoon around 1pm....
Timing loop is done....Speakers are done....Trash is done (Thanks magee)
I bought and painted up some timbers to re-do the outer board so hoping to anchor them to the asphalt....
Depending on the weather, maybe start painting the new lanes....wet asphalt permitting.....LOL
Micro24- You gonna be okay with the grass? Will bring my mower just in case....

Latest word is that Super Lawn Care Guy Ralph is at the track now cutting down the grass in the pit area we will use tomorrow! THANKS RALPHIE!!!!
From what he told me via phone, the freshly cut area will be for pit space. Please park in the uncut area....
I am going down in about an hour (at 1pm) to hopefully anchor the new board with marcosmecha and his super drill...LOL
I'm also bringing the computer and p.a. to make sure they are working, so if anyone want to bash with laptimes, bring your stuff....

Is piting in the hockey rink an option for those who would like to?
#178
For tomorrow Yes....We did come up with a good plan today to make pitting in the rink safe for all, but won't have it ready by tomorrow, so if use caution leaving the rink....The grass is beautifully cut so people can pit there too....
Gonna need a hookup for hay bales if anyone knows where to get them...
