IDEAS..
Lots of constructive suggestions here, Thank You All.
"Three days"..
We had over 500 runs in two days this year, everybody had ample opps to do their thing. Better we tighten up our schedule for more runs in two days.
Tech Friday noon to 5 ish, Saturday until 1pm. Then all our volunteers get to run there own vehicles . AND, they get fast laned in staging to make up for the time they spent volunteering their time.
Sched ;Friday, Tech Noon to 5pm, Saturday Tech 9 to 1 pm, 9am Drivers Meeting, 930 am Rookie orientation meet /drive thru, racing starts no later than 10 am Saturday, run until 6 pm.
Sunday, race 8 am to 4 pm, period. That's 16 hours total of racing, only differentiation to lengthening will be at the LTA discretion due to either weather or extra delays from race slow downs in general.
TOURS.. we need a tour guide, a vehicle, and enough interest to do this. There is obviously a Nuke storage bunker area, a "wildlife refuge" , and a general tour of the base that is probably interesting,. If we find a guide and a bus, free, it will happen.
As far as a Jumbotron in the staging area, we ain't either Yankee Stadium or even teeny Fenway HatBox park, but we will find options to enlighten the throngs in the staging
areas
Concerts ?.. We do have options to access these monster hangars, and will consider extra curricular entertainment.
I really appreciate all these ideas, keep 'em coming, please.
But remember, we are a group of LSR types interested mainly in LSR, let's not lose focus.
If a diversion is necessary, like if you brought Honey and The Spawn, consider the Northern Maine State Fair or whatever else is going on locally.
We are still very young, let's grow comfortably.
Safety and Comfort, those are the key words, and this is not a business, it's an Association of like minded enthusiasts enjoying an opportunity to do LSR in the North East USA.
