Minnesota Focus Owners Club

It's time again for the Car Craft Summer Nationals held at the Minnesota State Fair grounds. The LOL region SCCA will be running the auto-x and launch box events. The auto-x gets bigger and bigger each year and we expect to see even more participants this year. Volunteers are needed for both the auto-x and launch box. Some fellow Focus owners have helped in the past. If you want to see cool cars in action, rather than sitting by the curb, this is a great way. Below is a schedule and positions for volunteers:

Friday July 22nd
8:00am - 11:00am course design and set up (if we get there at 8 and set up, we can play before 11!)
11:00am - 5:00pm auto-x and launch box (30 minute break for lunch)

Saturday July 23rd
11:00am - 4:00pm auto-x and launch box (30 minute break for lunch)

Sunday July 24th
9:30am - 12:30pm auto-x and launch box
12:30pm - 1:30pm clean up

Positions:
Tech Inspection - inspect cars for safety (there are no performance rules!)
Cone Marshal - run for hit cones and place them back
Starter - waves cars to the start line
Timing and Scoring - run the timing system for the auto-x
Launch Box - run the radar gun system for the launch box

When we are done each day, you're able to stay on grounds to see the show.

SCCA will be giving out $10 worth of LOL Bucks for each person for each day they help. They are good to use towards any LOL Region SCCA event.


Please send all questions to danielcorgard@earthlink.net or call me at 612-741-3668.

Still need some help running the event. In past years we have had a few from MNFocus come out and help. I won't name them here, but hope they can chime in and let everyone know how much they enjoyed it.

Let me know if you're interested. This is a great way to get exposed to auto-x in a low key atomsphere.

Updated some info. Anyone interested? Ryan, Ryan, Dan???

I think this summer heat wave has scared people off, I know I won't be making a trip to CC this year...

Sorry Dan, that was my birthday weekend/ a friends wedding! I wish I could of been there!
