no racing this sun.

there will be no racing this sun. due to the amount of water on the ice we cannot have a safe race. there is plenty of ice (18)". i almost got the jetta stuck out there this morning. they got 3" of sleet and snow but also a copious amount of rain also. so while driving around where the track would be,the slush just packed up under the car and lifted it just enough so i couldn't move. so i just hammered on it and got moving again. oh well.. will check out the ice next thurs..

still a go for this sun.

we are still a go for this sun. feb3rd. i was out on sabbattus on thurs. and found no snow on it and over 16" of ice. i will be going out there on sat. morning to check it out just to make sure it's still good after tonight's crap. i will know at around 9:00 a.m. so check back...

race discussion jan 27th.

Well, our first race of the season is in the books.There was a nice turnout for the first endurance race, nice conditions and a long track (1.8 mi. for those that wondered) made for a great race day. The long track took it's toll on axles,clutches as a couple of the leaders had troubles. the #8 derry coffin who would have won easily broke a axle late, the #80 vern had tire issues after messing with the #9 saab, I broke a axle with 13 min. left, but the rookie in the #27 golf derek gannet/chris neptune kept it clean and in one piece and won it. congrats to them. Some of you might remember that car as it raced a couple of times with us.I believe the rennen group used to own it.
I would like to thank all of the scorers/corner workers/flagman for volunteering their time to get the race in smoothly.
On other notes, I realize there was alot of issues with the #9 saab. Corey and myself have had a discussion with him.hopefully he will learn from this, he's a good kid he just needs to calm down a bit. In the future, come to corey or myself and vent that's what we're here for. bob.k.

ice report

went out to check the lakes today, (should have brought my snowshoes) sabbattus: 8-10" track area, 4-6" on entrance 15' out. the lake rose with the rain and pulled away from shore. new meadows: 10" in pit area and halfway down front strech. entrance is slushy 6-8". so pond: 10-11" entrance good, alot of snow on all of them, going to be fun to plow a track.

Get em ready

ladies and gents, get em ready! roland was out on sabbattus pond yesterday and reported 10"-12" of ice on it.I will be going out to check for myself wed.-thurs. mainly the entrance concerns me. at least with 10" we can plow a track even if we do not have enough to race on. keep you posted. bob.k.
