Ok, as discussed in the February meeting, I can be the flag and communications chief for the event. We are supposed to be extremely busy at work over the next weekends up until the 4th of July shutdown, but I will take time off to support the event.

I look forward to seeing everyone there.

Yes, I did sign up earlier to work, learn about F&C, watch cars, and eat free lunch, but then you posted this:

and some track time at the end of each day

Which is what I was asking about.

We get a few laps at the end of the day ... assuming a BMW doesn't loop and die in the chicanes ... =P. There was no extra paperwork that I remember.

Don't use the D or F words!

... and some track time at the end of each day.

Has this been cleared with TGPR? As I recall, they did not allow this last year or were at least very reluctant.

[Cholewa]

I can be there for Sunday but I can't make it out saturday.

Craig is working on the scheduling to allow some time at EOD for teh workers to get some laps. The problem with worker laps is doing them at lunch. Since all the emergency personnel are "off the clock" we cannot have cars on course without the appropriate emergency personnel.

I have a F&C Chief already. I still need corner workers.

Ok this moves Cholewa from 85% to 50%. We still need corner workers. I have a feeling I'm going to be saying this alot over the next 2 weeks.

[Welacey]

Cholewa to 50%....... He's even less than i thought.

This is a great event to learn about working corners, in a relatively low-key environment. There are great sight lines from the tower, so it's easy to help folks along.

After working this event, you will feel much more confident about helping at Barber, Nashville, Road Atlanta or Crow Mountain.

Just be careful - you might get hooked.

I love this stuff!

I learned a lot when I helped out last year ... about flagging, communications and how events work in general. Definitely a positive experience. 100% worth it to go.
