7 May 2017 SCCA Club Trials and PDX registration is open

By "instructors," does Brad mean someone SCCA-specific, or someone that regularly instructs for local HPDE groups? If the latter, I could help out. 865 can vouch that I truly am a mean, nasty screamer.

Don't know about SCCA-specific, but OH dear lord, yes! DO NOT EARLY APEX A CORNER with hornetball in the instructor's seat, or it will be another TWO corners before you hear the end of it. But that said, a dramatic sideways drift, spin, and off at ricochet, or dropping two wheels off at the track-out rumble strip and getting catapulted across the track, will get you a response no more foreboding than "put both feet in". Go figure.

Brad's email address is on the SCCA Club Trials page. I'll vouch for your instructor credentials.

Go with DP.

That is what I run

Welcome Rick

Why don't you contact Brad and instruct ? More seat time, less money

Also, I texted you the other day, so pls check your phone

A friend is looking for a hardtop and I didn't know if you are ready to sell yours

Ooops! Sorry. Dropped the ball on getting back to you.

That top was a Snugtop and I sold it a few months back to a fellow from Austin. He subsequently put it on his car, forgot to fasten the brackets and went for a drive. He destroyed it. True story . . . I can't make this stuff up!

Aaaaanndd . . . I contacted Brad. He signed me up so quickly to instruct it made my head spin.

Someone remind me again what NAVY stands for?

Do instructors who are running club trial run in Group 1 or Group 4?

[ken o]

When you sign up there's a sign up for instructors and a sign up for CT, HPDE 1, 2 or whatever. Just clarifying if you are an instructor who is instructing someone in a lower run group you would still be driving in the CT run group but you sign up as 'instructor' not CT.

What's the prepared class for SSP cars?

SS---->SSP---->?

XP

[CosmosMpower]

XP

Yes you should definitely run XP, actually with those wings you should run A-Mod

Do instructors who are running club trial run in Group 1 or Group 4?

Yesterday at the TNiA, Brad Flack said instructors who are running the Club Trials will run in Group 1. All non-instructors who are running CT run in group 4. This is a good thing for instructors since Group 1 will have far fewer cars on track than group 4.

Good info thanks

Are we running CW or CCW?

[865]

CW, unless Brad has changed his mind since the Polar Prix.

Everyone should have an email from Matt Lucas via motorsportreg.com that has the information packet PDF with the final schedule, track map (clockwise direction), and tech inspection sheet.

Hello PDX drivers, Club Trial competitors and Instructors! Brad asked me to send this welcome pdf to you, and I've included the tech form here as well in case you missed it on the registration page.
One quick note on the tech sheet - the helmet spec is incorrect on the form. It should read Snell M/SA 2005 or newer.

Surprised that 2005 is still OK. Aren't those getting a bit gamey by now?
