>> Folks, You are all invited to attend the Racers' Reunion and Time Trials
>> this year.
>>
>> The Racers' Reunion will be held a held Sunday, 21 August at the host 
>> motel, the Hampton Inn, in Cranberry PA, around exit 26 on the Turnpike. 
>> All of the cars and owners gather for an informal show; non-track 
>> participants are encouraged to come and bring their Corvair, street or 
>> otherwise.  We usually hold a tech session or two followed by a "How to 
>> drive the track" session and a Safety talk about the rules in place for 
>> passing zones, etc. On both the Saturday night before and the Sunday 
>> night, we gather for dinner together and often adjourn to the local water 
>> hole for further discussions.
>>
>> On Monday, we drive to the track, sign in, unload the cars or take out 
>> loose stuff, get a safety brief, and then have practice by groups; Fast, 
>> faster and fastest-or slow, slower and slowest, depending on your point 
>> of view...:>).  After the groups have gotten used to the track, the 
>> passing zones, etc., there is open practice for the rest of the morning. 
>> In the afernoon, each participant has two or three laps alone on track to 
>> attain his/her fastest time.  Afterwards, we pass out awards and 
>> recognition and depart for home.  We rent the track on Monday because 
>> weekends are taken, a track has to be rented for the entire weekend, and 
>> the costs are much higher.
>>
>> For all who may not read the Communiqué or who are newcomers to the list 
>> and didn't see the 2004 VV and FV articles about the Northeast Corvair 
>> Council
>> (NECC) Time Trials (TT) and Racers' Reunions (RR), information may be 
>> found at www.corvair.org/chapters/NECC.  This year's Racers' Reunion and 
>> Time
>> Trial is to be held at BeaveRun Motorsports Complex approximately three 
>> miles north of the Pennsylvania Turnpike, exit 13, which is old exit 1B I
>> believe.  First or second exit into PA after leaving Ohio. The track web 
>> site is given again here: www.BeaveRun.com.
>>
>> During the past year Mr. Brian O' Neill, bmoneill at juno.com,  has written 
>> several articles on FV and VV about the NECC Time Trials, their dates and
>> where they are to be held during the year. These dates are listed in the 
>> Communiqué for all Corsa members as well as in advertisements in the
>> Communiqué. This year, NECC is holding a Pocono PA event, Portland OR 
>> event, BeaveRun event, and a Lime Rock CT event.
>>
>> For those who do not know, the Communiqué is the monthly award-winning 
>> magazine of the Corvair Society (Club) of America (CORSA). 
>> www.corvair.org
>> has much information about the club, chapters, events and rules governing 
>> events plus many other listings.
