I just now posted Dan Warner's El Mirage Roundup for the November 2011 meet.  It's on the home page (www.landracing.com) for your reading pleasure.  Thanks go to Dan for keeping us all well-informed about El Mirage - all year long.

Dan is dedicated to SCTA and all that makes it happen. He always gives 100%. Tell him thanks when you see him at work at the lakes and Bonneville. His input is always welcome and SSS gets it posted ASAP. Till next season have a good rest and getting it all together for 2012.

  Glen, I am afraid that if and when I actually meet Dan, it might be in impound, and if so I will probably need a pair of vicegrip's on my peepee waiting to find out what and where I f**ked up in reading and interpreting the rules............. but boy, do I ever appreciate and have respect for what he does and has done to further our sport. This respect includes people like the Volk'
s, the Burklands. the Vesco's, the Nish's, you Glen,people like Dan, the safety personel, course workers, and the tech inspectors who start each day knowing that every entrant is as nervous as a whore in church.
  Please, don't any one of you ever quit... not only our sport, but EACH of us need's your personal sacrifice to make our dream's happen.
  May God bless you all.................. and please interpret the rules as I see them..........

Even present at Shootout as inspector, Mr. Warner was busy from one end of the track to the other, helping Cook's crew, driving the track looking for lost plastic bits, cleaning up after the M/C fire, always busy.  And he answers folks questions, both at races and on this forum, making life easier for a lot of people.  Then again, in impound . . . . .

what I've been wanting to post for some time now .

from what I have learned on the forum , dw goes the extra mile
and then some 4 the car guys. ( and you sure don't have it easy with the rules and regs ).
motorcycle specs are a piece of cake compared to the 4 wheelers .

You said motor cycle rules were easy. Is that why there are 1800 classes. :roll:

I don't want a compliment to  pizz  anyone off.

the  rules to build a bike are very easy compared to what
it takes to build a car for lsr . ( imo )

I should've included all the others who put so much time and effort into making this sport work.

Not picking on you, the rules are usually hard for the ones who don't run that category. I guess the committees are needed for 2 & 4 wheels to keep us all straight. Have a great day.
