Re: Calling all WISCONSINITES



I live on the south side of Milwaukee. I have an 87 IROC-Z that looks good for being a 16 year olds car. I autocross it at Miller Park with the Milwaukee region SCCA as often as I can.

The last autocross for the year is going to be Sunday, October 14th. Maybe some of you guys/girls can show up so im not the only one with a 3rd gen.

Find out more about the autocrossing at: http://www.scca-milwaukee.org/Solo/solo2.html

WIR = "Wisconsin International Raceway" located in Kaukauna, Wisconsin. (15 min from Appleton)

RSD = "Real Street Drags"
It's a racing event that takes place there the first Friday of every month. The first Friday in October is the 5th. They turn the clocks off (although you still get a time slip) to promote people to race each other. You can go off a flag or give a person spots. It's supposed to be like real street racing. It's a real fun time.

Maybe I'll see some of you guys there.

Re: Calling all WISCONSINITES

I can't. My car runs open headers and isn't licensed as of now (I'm getting collectors plates next summer). I also wouldn't be able to break away from school. Otherwise I would.

Re: Calling all WISCONSINITES

Then come down to the Autocross at Miller Park. Tocoso is asking me for more info on it so hopefully he can make it, im almost always at them, and I think its a lot more fun that just going out driving together. Plus, no one has to set anything up its more so are you going... yes or no. And it would be great to catch everyone by surprise... I'm the only one there with a thirdgen so if there are all of a suddon like 10 of us show up, its gonna be like holy sh** where did they come from?

Just a thought...

Next/last one is October 14th. More info can be found at: http://www.scca-milwaukee.org/Solo/solo2.html

Re: Calling all WISCONSINITES

welcome aboard Wisconsinite! the turn out has been impressive but i still know theres alot more of us out there who's number 1 priority is checking your TGO site when you get home from work everyday. hopefully by the time the snow passes and the ground is lush and weather is tolerable, the ball will be rolling on a club of some sort. get your cash saved up so you can get that 350 in by spring! once again welcome aboard!!

Re: Calling all WISCONSINITES

I'm in wisconsin as well, kaukauna to be exact. I currently have a 92 RS in near mint condition. I only drive it a few miles a year, well more like 3000 or so, but thats about it.

As for your club or get together, one person is going to have to take the reigns and go with it, it will never work if you rely on trying to please everybody. Don't expect help, people will want to show up and have fun, but they will not want to be part of the planning. If you can't make a decision on your own and stick to it, you are wasting your time. Just pick a date and a location and stick to it and go with it. if you are going to plan for food, decide what it will be and thats it, come up with a cover charge for anybody that wants to eat and have them bring their own beverages. Don't try to make money on it, as you will only be shooting yourself in the foot. If you can supply food for $5 a head, great, you will get more people. About a month or so before the date have everybody RSVP whether they will be attending or not, so you can get a rough head count for food. You will need to plan for extras, as their will always be those that show up but didn't tell you they were going to. If you can collect the money in advance , great, otherwise be prepared to collect as soon as people get there, otherwise you will be left holding the check.

I have done this other times for a club I started for older muscle cars, it works and its not that hard. No, I will not do it this time as I am in the process of starting the first chevelle club in wisconsin and don't need to try to do two at once.

Good luck and keep us posted.

Jeff
