Status Updates:
Chris:
- Rough round with Red Flags from the round 6 but I think the track and everyone involved did a great job at dealing with efficiency and confidence. It went as well as it could. As far as the riders Jeremy Ross is doing a lot better after surgery on his leg. Alexander Lane is doing good after hurting his arms and is excited to come back to the MRA. Jeremiah Walker was banged up but doing ok. Casey Smith gave a statement that the family would like things to be private and confidential. They would not like to be contacted at this point and will let the club or Chris Nami know when they are ready to talk. Fingers crossed and please continue to pray for Casey and the family.
- This was a very sobering weekend for me being my first weekend with these types of accidents and I appreciate everyone’s support.
- Asked by a few members about Glenn being involved with the riders in their accidents or if Glenn was overstepping his duties. Glenns responses at HPR has nothing to do with the MRA. However, Glenn Consor is the most qualified person when it comes to first responses at the track. Please be confident in knowing that in those kinds of situations Glenn should absolutely be one of the guys that is there first and helping out. Glenn is well trained and very qualified. The Helicopter crew, the ambulance crew and all responders were on point and did an excellent job. In the future when we have an incident please be respectful and stay clear of the incident and keep from creating more chaos. The less people on scene the better.
- I represent the club as the president and made it fully aware that I am always open to conversations, thoughts, complaints anything that you may need both at the track and off the track.
- Campaigning: It has now been brought to me that since Saturday I have had 4 verbal and 2 messages that the campaigning has not stopped. It is not ok with the members and is not ok with me. Campaigning is personally a little infuriating to me. I have talked with these individuals several time. It still continues to happen. Bottom line is that we feel this is hurting the club. If you have any issues come talk to me.
- Still working on the next season race schedule should be ready next week.
- We have reserved a space for the banquet.
- Working on corner appreciation and BBQ
