Title: Moose Run Report
Post by: Donn Nay on February 15, 2010, 02:59:46 pm: Just a short one for now, Chris has the pit sheet with all the folks listed that showed up.

Weather was absolutely perfect, no wind. Temp in the high 60's. Ground was still moist from rain earlier in the week. We didn't have too many racers but we certainly had a good showing. Chris' group was quite large so it really helped swell the ranks. Of note that made it was Charley "Da Blur" Powell as well as Mr. Barney as a spectator.

Looking good for a few of our finishers, SGary Larcharite was second in class. James Jenkins had an awesome start, first at the bomb and second when he passed us a few miles later. Flat on second loop set him back, he finished fifth in class. Poor Gumby did not like the third loop, kicked his ass. He was second to last three loop finisher (damn, one more place and you could have got the DAL award!).

We voted in three new members Jason Schalow (hope I got that right) and Rick Hudachek from Bishop and "Cousin" Chucky Frozina. Welcome to the club guys. All three raced and finished.

I'm sure Chris will add more, quite a few stayed the night last night.

I was definatly thinking about you people, sucks being stuck at home with projects and not feeling well on top of that. Good to see a decent turnout ;D

Post by: Chuck Frozina on February 15, 2010, 06:22:30 pm: All went well for those that stayed till Monday. Had my wife call in "sick" so we could stay with the Cory, Jenkins, and Gamaunt families. Luke rode the kids race then, a bunch of us watched the adult mini challenge, that was a hoot! I pretty sure I got 1st in class but we'll see. Monday was a day of leisure and family time for us. We left just prior to Chris pulling out. Mandy sure took a beating this w/e from small falls and one big one off my bike when she tried to get down by herself. Luke got a shiner when he was leaving Chris's rig following Nate and Bradley down the stairs, but all is fine now as bothe the kids are on the mend. TY for all the votes for our membership we am glad to be a part of the "Family."

Post by: Keith Jones - VP on February 16, 2010, 04:11:00 pm: You NEVER mentioned 1st (that I remember) CONGRATS!!! Know you can learn to ride a BIKE, get a pit and ride 2 loops!!! ;D ;D ;D
If the GP meeting wants to cave in, have them postpone the schedule review agenda and mention Mr. Jim McG will present it at the next meeting!!! :o :o :o

Post by: Big Daddy Golden Rod on February 16, 2010, 08:45:47 pm: This is too late for the meeting but I think the Viewfinders should go on record in suporting quads not just an unclassified for maybe 10 entries but a whole weekend for atv's like GNCC does!

I thought that was set in stone already... (remaining 2 paragraphs edited out to prevent Chris from having to delete it)

Post by: Chris Cory - President 2012-14 -Life Memeber on February 17, 2010, 09:23:47 am: As far as Quads go, we had 43 entries at our race and I am sure all of them would run an unclassified if allowed. Also a deal has just been done with ITP to be a sponsor of the Big 6 quad race and they will be sending out invites to their 500 riders. More details on that in the GP report.

As far as our schedule, that item was tabled until next month since we didn't get out of the meeting last night until 11:00pm!
We have to ask permeation to change our schedule per the mutual benefit agreement. We have good reasons for the change so we will see what happens.

So I take that as,
Its still possible to have the Classic Scrambles on Sunday ??
Maybe we should be discussing this on the "Members Only" section instead of the public board ??

I will be laying out a proposal with our reasoning why we need to schedule to be changed.
