I am not Switzerland and I am not playing neutral on this,,,, however....
I can see both (or the several) points of view on this.
From all accounts this was a great Inaugural Event,,, I did see several cars class jumping to set multiple class records... this was good for the LTA as it created more revenue from a fixed number of entries.. this was good ego food for the competitor as they got records for this new venue,, I see the point of publishing the Fastest MPH in each class that had a run in it,,, I see the point of the folks that ran there wanting 2 things,, a "published record of there run" and a certificate for it as well,,,
I was not there last year,, but plan to be there this year,,,, I and I feel others would like to know who ran what and in what class so we will know what classes have records and what are open,,, Myself I will not be running on an open record, so I would like to know what I must do to try to top the previous "record" or fastest run for those who argue that it is or is not a real record...
I for one feel that by starting from scratch with no minimums and running on open records serves the purpose to build up revenue and create excitement for the new club... we all know that that in a few years the main classes will be well contested and lend even more credibility to "record status"
For now Let's ALL Support this new Club,, lend and hand,, offer words or support and encouragement.. and if within your travel budget and vacation time,, come on and join in the fun..
It takes a lot of work to pull all these LSR events... North, South, East or West,,,, we are all one BIG LSR Family...... OK off my soap box,,,, Post something we can run against and see you in July ....
