President: Jim Wilson
Welcome to the May General meeting
We had our 1st round this past weekend
Weather was perfect
First time in 5 years we have had a round 1
149 Entries
Results are posted
How do you all think the weekend went???
Calls sucked we waiting on pregrid way to long.
Just so you all know we identified that problem we will be working on that
Get the spacing between calls Supposed to go by flags
Sitting on grids to long, some issue was staff some was racers not knowing their grid spots
Brownie-
Novice, Amatuer if they don’t know it they will go to the back
We have been very lax about it, we need to stop it.
Repeat offenders are the one’s that don’t know & they don’t care we have allowed it before but that WILL NOT happen anymore
If you roll up to pre grid & ask what their position is you will start at the back no matter the reason.
Pre grids job is to make sure all you all have a rider number & no one leaking anything not to be yalls babysitter you’re supposed to be in the race not them
Discipline on lining up on the chalk spots
Would like to have some practice on how to grid up properly
Sat seemed like everything was red flags.
Want to make sure we are not being paranoid but don’t want to compromise safety either
We did have a number of red flags but that can happen sometimes
One that should have been a red flag was not Bike was in impact zone & was leaking fluid
Some of the flags were premature we are aware of that, we are working on that with all of our staff
ROR wasn’t done in running order
We don’t have a real clear definition of what makes it a completed lap
The board needs to discuss it & make clarification
The big thing is we wish the walls were moved we want to keep an open relationship with them.
Don’t think it would be a good idea to reduce it to 2 tracks
We have had a few people that have asked about Hastings
We would need at least 160 entries & entry fees paid for a month in advance
We have had the years where we asked the members & we based majority vote of 35 people that 50 people that attend every round & lost so much money the club was about to be bankrupt. We have also had to cancel rounds because of entry numbers.
Hastings no one really wants to drive home for 6 hours after a full day of racing ot’s exhausting & the extra expense fuel, hotel eating out if they stay at hotel.
If we want to go to these other venue we need to make the club bigger we need more members
To run Hastings would be about 50K because we would have to pay corner worker travel fees, Utah is even higher.
If George would give us a good deal we would be happy to go out




Mike Lukachy- Please don’t break into Mike’s trailer again
Someone stole Santagio Shirtz wallet as well
Concerning that this is happening keep your eyes peeled for suspicious activity




Open registration Monday closes Tuesday May 29th at midnight
HPR Monday short course hr in am & pm , north & west course
This sat RMK has their open house Cindy is going to be there needs a few volunteers. Great opportunity for Novice hours.
Fay Myers Block party coming up as well will Send out announcements
Champ street really good school geared for street riders

Vice-President: Jeremy Alexander
Working on contingency
Hope to have more options at the next round
We are getting several guys from the race school that want to license up
If you have kids make sure you know where they are & what they are doing the raceday office is not a daycare center. They all have jobs to do
There was an incident where kids were throwing a magnet & it broke one of the windows on the door in the raceday office. Parents have agreed to pay for it






VP Rules & Tech: Brett Leveque
Nothing





Treasurer: Laci Lukchy
Still working on round 1 looking at profit of about 2k
Had great entry numbers, we are looking petty good for the year as of right now, we are still in the beginning of the race season
We are about 2k in net revenue
We try to generate as much as possible in the 1st few rounds because numbers tends to drop off after Round 4
