ianacole Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Proposed rule/change: Add wording to the existing Dyno Certification rule to require competitors to include a copy (only a copy, not a new one) of their Dyno Plot, Dyno Certification Form, and Engine Management Declaration Form (EMDF) as part of their log book and turn in a copy to the Region/Race Director each attended event Background: This will eliminate differences from region to region in the application of dyno certification requirements, and push the evidence of compliance to competitor, especially when racing out of home region. Status: Open for debate Quote
scottbm3 Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 No problem with that proposal. Always in favor of compliance rules. The only downside is region race directors will have a lot of paperwork to keep at the track. The EMDF is like 3-4 pages, so each racer will be turning in around 6-7 sheets of paper for them to keep track of. -Scott B. Quote
ianacole Posted November 11, 2008 Author Posted November 11, 2008 I haven't really thought through this part yet, but I'll put this out there as part of this discussion since it ties in: A national GTS site could allow for the secure uploading and viewing of these documents. Sharepoint could handle this type of document storage quite nicely, as I'm sure other web interfaces could do as well. Directors could view the information online at any time. This assumes internet connectivity at the track, of course. Quote
Doug Pascarella Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 I would like to see a centralized location for the source documents, but having the racer keep a copy of what he/she turned in would be most helpful at an event for quick reference when impounding. Getting Internet connections at some tracks isn't easy. Doug Pascarella Mid Atlantic GTS Director Quote
RSCoupe Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 I'm okay with this, and like the idea of a centralized, online database. Quote
cstreit911 Posted November 12, 2008 Posted November 12, 2008 Too much paperwork. What am I going to do with 1/2 a ream of paper turned in to me every event? I won't have a reason to review it. I would support having copies in the log-book for review (though I would only look at out-of-region guys honestly). We have a spreadsheet that Mark, others, and I shared all season with dyno numbers since we have so much crossover. Why don't we continue to use that? Quote
911.racer Posted November 13, 2008 Posted November 13, 2008 I think this is fine. The forms should be looked at and a single document should be crated of them all. Something simple and straightforward so you know that you have all of the pages and you are not missing anything. Maybe attached to the inside of your log book Ed Baus Porsche 911 Quote
Keith Andrews Posted November 13, 2008 Posted November 13, 2008 Dyno, engine info should be part of the log book available for easy review. I like to keep the weight ticket you get in compound as evidence in my logbook as well. Quote
JoeMag Posted November 13, 2008 Posted November 13, 2008 I'm okay with this one, but need to find an electronic way to handle. I think reality is you're just wasting paper. Quote
Pinnacle Racing Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 I'm okay with this one, but need to find an electronic way to handle. I think reality is you're just wasting paper. If this is the Joe I think it is, you bought my 82 930 racecar years ago... How are you. I heard you sold my old car. Do you still have it? I thought I saw a bare tub out there for sale...

ryan325 Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 Why the need to "turn in a copy"? Seems just having copies on hand for review would be good enough. Quote
Members Eric W. Posted November 19, 2008 Members Posted November 19, 2008 Why the need to "turn in a copy"? Seems just having copies on hand for review would be good enough. Agree w/ Ryan. Just have a copy in your logbook. Quote
