Chief Steward’s Report – March 2017

It’s tough to say we had a perfect weekend when one of our good guys ended up in the hospital. Bill’s car was damaged badly from the impact and I thought his injuries would have been much more severe. What prevented the worse could have been his Hans, the build of the car or just his tenacity. Bill get well soon and let us know if we can help out. Did have a couple of metal to metal contacts which brings to fact that some drivers are taking chances when attempting a pass. There should not be any doubt that a clean pass can be make. This is not NASCAR and rubbing is not allowed. Let’s keep our cars in the same condition as when they arrived. The racing was excellent and I have to admit CVAR has some talent and I enjoy watching them. Our novices can learn a lot from our pros, and understand what it means to vintage race. And to those with experience please mentor the newbies because our growth depends on them. Looking forward to Hallett and the Pre-war group. Help make this event a success with a big welcome to the pre-war drivers and maybe a little guidance. Should be an interesting addition to the weekend. If possible there will be a paddock for our pre-war visitors. See you at the next one! Danny Piott Chief Stweard
