Guys,
Please go to the thread link below and post some comments about Gary Pickrell, who lost the battle against Cancer a few weeks ago. 2 of Gary's best friends (Frank and Chuck) helped build the current SCH track in Bridgeville and Gary had his own custom pit spot right next to his best friends.
This fundraiser race will be a lot of fun in Gary's name with both On-Road and Oval racing on that day - and lots of awesome door prizes and Chinese auctions! Don’t forget the great tasting food!

Check out this thread and take the poll and leave a note if you have any memories of Gary!

Hey Mike
do you have any racing schedule for Fall season?

Mike@StlCity

Hi Guo,
I just posted a soft schedule this weekend. Basically, every Saturday! Info on the website.
I am working on the computer aided points system with our scoring program. SInce I work in NYC most of the time, I am trying to automate as much as possible since I am out of town. I will keep everyone informed on the SCH website.
Thanks again for the post!
Mike

Will do. I'm hoping the roadcourse is up for practice. Between school and work I'm limited to racing so I would like to practice more so when I do get to race I don't get owned. -Ky

Frank built a really technical road-course which looks great. Lots of compliments - I may have to break out a touring car to see what I can do... yikes.
