RallyCross

There was discussion regarding a possible new RallyCross site at Mt. Crescent. Regional Executive Mark Walker will be looking into it. More to follow at a later date.

Solo

It was discussed that the last divisional before Nationals - August 6th in Kansas City, MO will count as the “divisional” requirement for Nationals.

No events are labeled as activity points on website. Website will be updated accordingly.

Candy informed the board that the Street Survival will be held at Lincoln Southwest High School on August 25th. She is in the process of completing paperwork for this event with the BMW club.

On July 9th, 2011 an Introduction to AutoCross will be held for the BMW Club. Discussion was held about getting an extra class for BMW to register in on motorsportsreg and that it would be the easiest way to have the BMW Club register for the NRSCCA event.

The May board meeting will be moved one week ahead to May 19th,due to Spring Nationals.

Competition

Contracts have been sent to MAM regarding the August N/N/IT/ IT Race. The Club Racing committee is still working on a schedule for this event.

Discussion was held about asking surrounding regions to send out a flier about the October Club Race at MPH to their mailing list to help encourage workers at the final Club Racing event of the season.

Check received from Greg Scharnberg for certification of scales. An orientation was held at MAM for workers to educate possible workers about what goes on at a Club Race. A total of 3 potential workers turned out and all in attendance for the orientation came to help with the first race held by DMVR. It was decided that this event should be held every year to encourage new workers.

Old Business

New club helmets have been ordered and are on their way.

New Business

New fence grant has been written and submitted. Will be reviewed by Lancaster County around June 3rd.

The Nationals Committee is considering fronting half the purchase price of the new fence before grant is given to have the fence for the Spring Nationals to help ease set-up for the event. NRSCCA will purchase the other half. Risk of doing so, is that we don’t get the grant. Motion/second was made by Gerber/ Garcia to purchase. All approved, none opposed.

The practice course will be up and running for the Spring Nationals. Schedule was proposed to open Thursday night during practice starts and will be a minimally staffed thing. A Safety Steward and let people shag their own cones. The Rebels Auto Club will be asked to shag cones on Saturday to help with the ProSolo finale. $35 for 4 runs. No charity will be benefitted. The Evolution Driving School will be having their school at the Spring Nationals.

Jerry Doctor informed the board that there are new accident report cards. Due to HIPPA laws, they can no longer be sent to the insurance company via postcard. They must be sent via envelope.

Old accident reports are not to be used.

Jerry Doctor suggested that the July Activities Points should be for the Solo event and the November Activities Point should be for the RallyCross event.

Motion/second to adjourn, Gerber/Garcia. All approved, none opposed.
