Summerfest is only a week and a half away - thought it would be a good idea to get a coordination thread up so that we can make sure everyone's on the same page and we've got everything covered. So far, Chuck, John, Bryan, Okabe, Mrs. Mini-Z, and myself are in; Lawrence has to work that day so is out - Norman is a maybe. Anyone else up for helping - we'd love to have you!
Check out last year's thread for a recap of what the event is like - this is our 3rd year doing it (or 4th if you include the first year when we got rained out!) but we're always looking for ways to improve - I could have sworn we'd assembled some "notes to selves" for next year in that thread but I'm not seeing them there - if anyone knows what I'm talking about, please point me to the correct spot...?
Chuck has got the E-Z Ups and transport of said shelters covered - hoping to maybe cover the track or a portion of it this year to help abate the heat - in fact, Chuck, do you know what the dimensions are so we can assess feasibility of this?
I will of course bring cars, parts, batteries, etc. I need everyone to bring tools, and most critically, transponders. If we can get a quick transponder count now in fact, that would be really helpful.
Racing is 12:30-2:30pm - in the past, I've gone in the early AM to set up the track, and then we've met at 11 to start charging and setting up cars etc. - this will probably be the plan this year too. I'll post more details soon and get some checklists together etc. to make sure we've got everything covered (or more likely, I will intend to do so, and then Mrs. Mini-Z will pick up my slack! ). In the meantime, if everyone can just confirm they are following the thread, and share any thoughts/feedback/ideas/etc., that would be great. Thanks Dojo Members!!!
