Den341548534727 Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 CMC racers The Midwest / Great Lakes region is the smallest region in the country. We have been trying to determine how to make our region grow and where to pursue new CMC racers. I have created a simple survey below to possibly get some insight as to where the racers are coming from. I will tabulate the data and share with the group. Please only vote once and I would like to limit it to racers and HPDE drivers who are 99% sure you are going to run CMC. You can post on the site and I can take the data from there or preferably you can PM me or email me direct at [email protected]. I hate surveys as much as the next guy but we are just trying to figure out where we can get more racers. So your help would be appreciated. 1 What kind of car do you drive? A. Third gen Camaro B Third gen Firebird C Forth gen Camaro D Fourth Gen Firebird E Fox Mustang F Fox Capri G SN95 mustang H S197 2 How did you get started in cmc A Graduated from track days / HPDE B Came from another series (SCCA ETC) C CMC is your first racing venture D HPDE driver D other 3 Have you had any other auto racing experience? A Drag racing B Circle track C Motorcross D Other 4 What engine is in your car? A Carbed 305 B LT1 C LS1 D Carbed 302 E FI 302 F DOHC 4.6 G Tuned Port 305 H 2V 4.6 I 3V 4.6 5 How was your car created. A Evolved track car B Built from scratch from and raw body C Converted from a running car D Other 6 Did you ... A buy your car complete B Build it yourself C Have a shop build it. 7 What size wheels do you run?

Den341548534727 Posted October 8, 2008 Author Share Posted October 8, 2008 Holy crap!!! I had no Idea I would get this kind of response! I am having a tough time keeping up! I can see that question 3 has multiple answers so write in what you think. I have had many "Autocross" answers. Question 5 is kind of fuzzy so do the best you can Also had suggestion of adding question 11. how long have you been running CMC? You welcome to add that if you like. Keep the responses coming!

Den341548534727 Posted October 15, 2008 Author Share Posted October 15, 2008 The results are in, well sort of, I just stopped getting replies so I thought I would post what I had. I want to thank the 34 people who replied. This gives us an idea of who and where the CMCers are coming from and was very enlightening in some cases. This of course was very unofficial and some of the numbers may not seem to add up because some people had multiple cars and some people did not answer the question quite clearly enough to categorize. There where some questions that people suggested and answered but not everyone answered those so I decided to leave those off and save those for another day..maybe. I also intentionally avoided some of the hot button questions of the day, wings, 9.5 inch wheels etc. So thanks again everybody and here are the results: 1 What kind of car do you drive? 36 cars total A. Third gen Camaro 8 22% B Third gen Firebird (5) 14% C Forth gen Camaro (5) 14% D Fourth Gen Firebird (4) 11% E Fox Mustang (3) 8% F Fox Capri (0) 0% G SN95 mustang (11) 31% H S197 (0) 0% 2 How did you get started in cmc A Graduated from track days / HPDE (15) 43% B Came from another series (SCCA ETC) (9) 26% C CMC is your first racing venture (7) 20% D HPDE driver (3) 9% E other (0) 0% 3 Have you had any other auto racing experience?

nape1548534725 Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 I don't see how Joe could make $250,000 anyway, you only need to know 5 things to be a Plumber: 1. Water up 2. Shit down 3. Hot on the left 4. Cold on the right 5. Pay day is Friday All comments brought to you from the Electrician peanut gallery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brought to you by an IBEW journeyman electrician. Damn, I must be a plumber and not even know it. Everytime I get a job assignment they tell me "You're lower then whale shit, and there ain't much lower then that. This one's for you."
