Title: Speedweek 2015 Pre Entry Spreadsheet
Post by: doug on July 16, 2015, 12:31:07 PM
Here is this years Pre Entries sorted and categorized. Hopefully this years gets used. I was interested to see what changes folks made from 2014, so I added a tab comparing last years entries to this years entries. Enjoy.

Good job Doug! I attempted to do this but the HTML formatting was just too much to strip out.
Thanks
Don

Wayno,

I looked at the SCTA page too, before my post. Front page, about center, partially hidden by a colored box. It is there and we, #369, are on it.

Email from Greg this morning indicated that he is waiting for the long/short course only word. Change gears and load. Thats it for the roadster. Truck engine being pulled tomorrow. The 2L is going in, it never ran last year.

I see 369 in the list. Not sure where you are looking. I did find that I missed adding:
9009   F   BFR   TIM STEVENSON TIM STEVENSON
I may have missed a few others. My auditors are on vacation.

BTW, here is the PDF of the list last was on the SCTAs site.

Doug,

I printed the list, I see our entry now. I think this list makes it very, very clear that there is an over abundance of classes as evidenced by single class entries and many classes with no entries.

This could be one of the problems the sport faces - a class for every man.

I don't know, Dan.

The motorcycles, at less than 40% of the entries, have by far the most classes, yet their entries seem to increase every year. 

Their participation is witnessed by their pride, at other events, of listing 10 or 12 "records" under their signature with the same bike, usually in the same configuration, just filling a hole.  Must be "old hat" to build a vehicle to take away a set record any more.

The SCTA car classes haven't increased in years -- except for the ill-advised Compressed Air Roadsters.  That worked out well, didn't it?  Loved seeing all those DeSoto, Studebaker, Olds and Cadillac-powered roadsters the last two years -- didn't you?

Chevrolet engines seem to populate the Compressed Air roadsters. Looked at a program last night and saw 5(?) entries. That bodes weel there.

But, not to seem to complain, I did notice that the #369 F/BFR roadster missed the cut. We meet the 2.K appearance rule.

Apparently Lee has sharp eyes.  He's never had to look too hard in order to comment and advise.
