  4. The area you defined is the area where we do the figure 8 exercise. The skid pad is beyond corner 9 where AutoX / Drift and the slalom exercise from our competition school is held. Please introduce yourself. It’s always nice to know who’s showing interest in racing at GMP.
  5. Thanks for your post @rocknrollron For 2023 we’re looking at one division only, with a subdivision for Novice.
  6. Why don’t you introduce yourself so we know who we’re talking to. Welcome here.
  7. If we were running an endurance race I would stage the pits on the skid pad. I wouldn’t want to release cars at corner one.
  8. If you vote for OTA you’re voting for either. This is just prelim to narrow it down!
  9. Let’s try and reel this in a bit. Please vote! PAX vs. Class Champ Preferred Rulebook
  10. Nice post Mig I can confirm there will be a Rookie program as well as an EXTREME (Unlimited/Open) class.
  11. Thanks David One thing is for sure. Our weekend schedule will always host 60 minutes of open track. I’ve already committed us to that! We’ve sent in our request to GMP and I expect we will have at least one open track weekend. I’ll be twisting @donrolandofurioso’s arm to hold a second licensing school for individuals who are committed to compete in 2023.
  12. The more this thread expands the more it seems to me that we need to focus more on the best fit for our membership, and less on assimilation.
  13. The WSCC isn’t in a position for that right now. After fixing our track different story. Let’s be honest, until the work is done we shouldn’t be inviting anyone.
  14. Truth. We’re really good at asking people to come to GMP, we’re not great at returning the favour.
  15. I really don’t want this thread to get hijacked. If you wanna scrap, show up at the banquet and settle it on the dance floor…or even better on here, in the DM’s. Dont make me host a festivus party…
  16. I’m going to thank each of you for your thoughts. I can see points being made on all sides. Now we point forward. Everyone will have a chance at a championship in 2023 if they build for their class and hone their skills as drivers. This is our goal. This is our focus. @Dnfwm @Ianfromduff @donrolandofurioso
  17. I’m glad you guys got to air some things out here and now we can hopefully move on from there and not look back. ALL of the discussion above seems positive to me but I’d like to make sure from this point we’re lazer focused on looking forward not back. To be clear, we will not be endorsing any model that is custom fabricated for Gimli. However it will most likely be a widely accepted classing structure (SCCA etc.) that has been abbreviated to hold us to something like 5 classes rather than 15. For example, let’s take the T class from 2022. Instead of having cars spread between T1, 2 & 3, splitting the class down the “middle” T1 cars having to “tune down” or limit mods so they fit in T2 and the T3 cars have to step it up to be competitive. This is only an example. This is something I had to do almost yearly in road race to stay with my group. TA is a very competitive discipline. You are likely going to have to make some changes. Let’s be honest, the days of showing up with an unprepared car and expecting to be able to win a championship are over. That’s not to say that anyone should feel like they HAVE TO mod their car. Anyone is welcome to come out and join a class and improve themselves as a driver. If you’re expecting to win a championship, you’ll likely have to put in some work prior to your event. Regardless on what we decide on the 8th of December please understand that this WILL BE A SHAKEUP. That’s why we are trying to give everyone 4-5 months to prepare their cars “to be competitive” in their classes. 2023 is going to look different. It’s going to take some adjustment. I believe it will be worth it. Let’s try something new and make racing at GMP even more competitive. TA is the new headlining discipline at GMP. Let’s take the step up. There’s more than one driver deserving of an annual championship. Let’s get it!
