Thank you to all the members that came out this weekend, we had a AMAZING time at the Glen, Car Corral parking on turn 1, meet and greet with drivers of the Roush Racing Team, Jack Roush Jr and Billy Johnson, pit walk, garage walk, victory lane, walk thru of the Grand Am trailer tech station and more.
Thank you to Jared (onlycodered), Mike (redlawyers) and Jenna (mustangjenna) with putting up with my mood swings as we were trying to out this all together, with out you guys, I would have been in trouble, these 3 members helped out a TON and was a big part of the event being put together and how well it went.
Thank you to Mikes wife Lara and Jared girlfriend Stacie for helping out late Friday night stuffing bags and helping us out getting it all ready for the morning.
Thank you to Robbie Roessel for helping us out and hooking us up with this, if it was not for Rob coming to me about this and setting me up with the Grand Am guys, this event and many others down the road would have not happened. Rob is a member of NYM and works for Watkins Glen, he was a major part of putting this all together and everyone should thank him for that.
Thank you to our sponsors, Rochester Trophies, Geico, Cortese Auto Block, American Muscle, Jegs, Summit Racing, Aridex and Ziebart of Rochester.
I had the chance to speak with Steve Focazio, as you all know, the Grand Am series is joining forces with the LaMans series next year to make one big series, with the ok turnout and the general nature of everyone, Steve was very impressed and happy to have such a good group and people that wanted to see it all and wanted to be hands on with the event, with this being said.....
Steve and the Grand Am series have invited us back for 2014!!!!!
I will be working with him for setting up the event for next year, Steve will be including even more "special features" for our club and once the schedule is released for next year, I will get to work on it for everyone, so please keep this in mind and put the Glen on your schedule for June or July of next year!!!!!!!
