Jim Wilson-
Round 1-
With how things ended thank you for coming out &sticking around.
We have received calls about R1
We have had several questions
Why didn’t we just cancel before the weekend- We still haveto pay for insurance, track, Ambulance.
This is the most HPR has seen in weather since 2009
Last year we canceled Sunday Only & Racers were refundedfor Sunday
Our prices are tiered so cancelling & giving a refundlast year was more feasible
If we canceled & gave a refund the MRA would have beenin the hole by 21k
What is the Rainy day fund or Oh shit fund? It is actually areserve account for several different reasons,
Back in 2009 we had 10 rounds our numbers declined when theeconomy
At about R3 we were in the hole by 25k
We had to barrow money from members. We don’t want to dothat again.
We saved for 4years we have 50k in the reserve fund
It is for keeping the club a float if the Economy drops, wedon’t want to lose the MRA
We did cancel & couldn’t give refunds
YTD- if we gave the refunds we would have been -20008.00
Going into R2- We want to do something for you all
We will be using the Grids for R1 anyone the withdrew orcanceled before R1 will go to the back of the grid.
If you were at R1 & didn’t drop or cancel before theweekend-We will pay for your Friday Track Day
