Caution, Fun Next 8 Months

I would like to thank the 2008-2009 EESCC Officers for their service. Many thanks also go out to the many that come early and stay late to help in any way they can. There are so many that I am scared to list them fearing I will miss someone. This year I would like to welcome Jennifer Ocker as Vice President, Greg Ervin as Safety Steward and Nick Rodriguez as Chief of Tech. I am totally looking forward to working with them this year.

Well, another AutoX season is fast approaching.  I'm looking forward to catching up with old friends and making new ones. Waiting to see who will run their cars just as they did last year and looking for those that have taken their cars apart to improve something that will make them faster. Which are you???  Is your car still in pieces???  Have you ordered your tires???  Are your go fast parts still in the box they came in a month ago??? Maybe you think you have plenty of time for all of this. Every year I hear stories of someone up at 2AM the day of the event getting their car ready or helping someone with theirs. Why do we do this to ourselves???  I think because our twisted minds tell us it's fun.

This year will be especially exciting for me. First and foremost, I will be co-driving with my son Kevin. There are many father son, father daughter, or family teams out there. I think in most of those teams, one of the parents is the tire warmer. I wonder how long before I'm the tire warmer??? Just a couple of years ago I was giving Kevin pointers on how to drive the course in his Kart, or I think I was. By the way, the Kart is for sale. We will also be switching classes from FSP to EP where I must race against another Ford for the win, "the Pinto". And yes I laughed as I was typing "the Pinto". the word racing and Pinto just don't seem to go together, sorry Keith. Now he's gonna beat me for sure.  Another reason for the excitement this year is the opportunity to race in the 24 Hours of LeMons. Looks like a whole lot of FUN lined up for this year. 

My parting words of wisdom for those moments when you are getting beat by the guy you can't stand, you just broke something expensive, your car won’t start again or just plain frustrated   "WE ARE DOING THIS FOR FUN!!!!"  :)
