OzRacer Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Special request to all CMC Drivers who will be at the Buttonwillow Event, October 8th. There is a special event planned at approximately 5.15pm on the saturday, after the last regular race of the day, before the enduro. The plan is to get all drivers and their CMC cars lined up on the track for a photo shoot, and to do one lap of the track at slow speed, consider it like a parade lap. More details will follow soon... Thanks Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony G Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 All I can say is...if you were going to any race this year..then this is the one you have to go to and should not miss..and I mean it because if you do you will be thinking about it for years to come as to why you did not go...ok so is that enough said?? That all I'm saying for now... Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeP-99Z Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Can I bring my AI car to play that weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsim Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Sure, if you play in AI! I'll be there. Since Brett announced first, I guess he gets pole, I'll take the outside front row. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickS Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 I'll be *inside* inside front row, 4 wheels in the dirt, half a car length in front of both of you. - N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony G Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 And I'll be "inside" "inside" of you since I know I'll be "forced"into the dirt and have no where to go ..so look for Mustang tail lights at corner #1. Tony Will it be GM or Ford next year....????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsim Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Easy there tigers, I was just talking about the picture - wanna reserve the front row. Now of course if you want to be off in the dirt to make it authentic, that's another story... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzRacer Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 OK now boys & girls, don't worry, I'll have a grid all worked out so there'll be no arguments over who gets what spot. What will be involved is getting all the CMC cars on the track in a gridded format (which I will workout) for about 15mins, drivers will be required to stand by their cars and then there will be a slow speed, approx 20mph, parade lap. This will take place at approx 5.15pm, just after the last of the days regular scheduled NASA events. There will be professional photos and video taken. I do hope all CMC drivers will be there to participate. There will much more details following soon... Thanks Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonBar1548534707 Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 What will be involved is getting all the CMC cars on the track in a gridded format Hey Brett, I'm planning on being at that event. I can help you grid these guys. Don't use #'s, they can't read em. You have to point them to where they belong DonBar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Al F. Posted September 7, 2005 Members Share Posted September 7, 2005 hmmm...who is gridded in front of me? I need to make sure they have a good rear hook so they can tow my car around the track! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzRacer Posted September 8, 2005 Author Share Posted September 8, 2005 Don, your help may well be needed, you know how those CMC drivers can be when they're trying to get to the front! There will also be a reward/benefit to those drivers who are involved in the event. more details soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Graves1548534707 Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Hi Brett and Everyone else. I don't think my car can go only 20 mph, but I'm there for sure. A life without no tracktime, ain't much of a life. All I've been doing is running laps in my head, while being poor and getting my business running and building my "Home". Life is Good. Esse' #81...

OzRacer Posted September 14, 2005 Author Share Posted September 14, 2005 ok, ladies & gentlemen, the grid format for the photo/video deal is this: The idea is to have a row of cars on each side of the s/f line that form almost a circle shape. We will need to have 2 rows of cars, one row on each side of the start/finish line. The first car (on either side) of the s/f line will be parked on the south side of the track facing the tower, the second car will be parked beside that one as close as physically possible, but about a foot in front of the first car, and slightly angled to start the circle formation. The third car to do the same, and so on, and so on. I hope you get the picture. The next step in the process will be the parade lap, which will start out with the first 2 cars (closest to the s/f line) leading out, followed by all the others in a 2 wide format. Now my next step is to figure out which cars go where??? Maybe based on car number order? finish position from Saturdays race? best qualifying time? I'll keep working on that part. More details, and the main reason for all of this, coming soon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsim Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Now my next step is to figure out which cars go where??? Well since I already claimed spot #2, I don't care how you sort the rest. OR, how about first name alphabetical? Oops, there's me in #2 again, behind Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Al F. Posted September 15, 2005 Members Share Posted September 15, 2005 Yeah yeah, alphabetical based on first name!! I guess the car behind me can push me if I'm first... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT4Point6 Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Now my next step is to figure out which cars go where???Maybe based on car number order? finish position from Saturdays race? best qualifying time? I'll keep working on that part. I vote for an inverted setup based on the last race Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
