Club meetings are still at 7:00 to 8:30 on the last Thursday of the month (July 28th, Aug 25th) but the location has changed. Our new meeting locus is in the community recreation center 801 2 Ave N, in the room adjoined to the coca cola café. There is not going to be food but coffee will be on hand. Events. Our last event was sort-of a last minute affair, I tried to get the word-out the best I could but unfortunately everyone was not informed. The cards arrived to most folks one day before the deadline (Thanks to the Holiday July 4th) and were only mailed to members. Luckily a few drivers had checked the web site and had the news early. If you did get on the “Base List” you do not need to resend your info again, but if not then get it to me before October 1st. I need your SSN, DOB, Driver Lic # and your full name, dido for anyone who might come with you. The October 16 event looks like it will be held on the base, we have a meeting this week with the new Chief and hopefully we can confirm that. Check on the website for fresh details.
We’ve had two events since the last panic slip, the results of each are printed on the last page and they’ve been up on the web site for some time now.
Region 105 (that’s us) will host two more events this year. Top Gun is in Helena, wanna stay overnight give me a jingle now so I can get this group rate thing going. So far the Wingate Inn has offered us 74.00 per night per room, it’s a nice place and very close. A few members have called with suggestions and offered to find a cheaper rate but unless more folks say they are in then I guess it will go on the back burner for now.
Demo Derby. Well Derby time is almost upon us. August 6th is the big day and we have a good list of volunteers but we still need about eight more bodies to make it work. This is a big deal for your club because we get four free usages of the Expo facilities, which is how we can keep fees down to 15 bucks. All volunteers get a Tee shirt (Wow) and a pass to the State Fair (Holly Cow) and if that wasn’t enough they also get a free day the next time they go autocross (Groovy but not Top Gun). Not to mention you get the best seats of the house for the Derby, so come-on give Ed a bang on the bells and add your name to the list.Ed Austin 452-1135Thank you Darrell/Dean Schamp, Jerry Ruckavina, Tom Masterson, Dennis Figarelle, Greg Rice, Ed Austin, Paul Heppner, James Rowen, Drew Lovec, Kelly Rolfe, Blue/Logan Manzanares, Ben Olmstead, Clint/Lass Houge, Jim Messick and you to if your going to volunteer

Classified. Hey we have a classified section in the panic slip, wana sell some stuff let me know. Bob Morin is selling his GT-3 racer $2700, Clint Houge has a set of slicks 21x8x13 for $30 each.
Divisional. This should be really cool, some top cars and their drivers will be in Helena competing on our home turf. Missoula is hosting the event, OK yes Helena is technically in our region and ever since other regions have helped themselves to run events in “our Helena” there has been some mild grumbling but dose it really matter. Personally I think its cool that we all have an opportunity to run Helena more than the 3 events we have time to put on. And I encourage members to support the other regions who plan an event. With that said (the website is open to any rebuttals) lets get down to business. Missoula has taken us up on our offer to help them with the event. We have two tasks ONE make-up signs directing folks to the facility and then place them and TWO run the grid. Outside of that Missoula has help from other regions and has everything else covered (even working the course I think). I guess it will be interesting to come watch even if your not competing but just incase read-on. Any one who is going to drive the Aug 20-21 Divisional event really needs to check out on their web site you’ll find complete information and the registration sheet. If you register early you will save 15 bucks making it only 55 bucks. One thing you might notice and this has been discussed before is that all drivers must have their own 2005 solo rulebook. Printing it out online will not fly, even vehicles with two drivers must have two rulebooks. If you order it yourself it cost 20+8 shipping. However if we can get five or more folks together and place the order through the club then it will be 20 flat, the club will absorb the shipping cost (only 12 bucks with the combo). The order needs to be placed rather soon Aug 17th is about the latest I dare wait. Ok, again do not forget to check the website for the details.
