Hard to believe that it is August and the Driver Ed season is more than half over. Our Thunderbolt and Mosport events were completed in July and we are now looking forward to Watkins Glen in a few weeks. Registration for the September event at Lightning and advanced/solo event at Watkins Glen are now open and Monticello opens August 7. Monticello is a local Sat/Sun event, so sign up early.
The first week of June was our annual trek to Mid Ohio, one of the best road courses in the country. I consider myself very lucky to arrive at the track the night before the event with a working car, so allow me to rewind a week to explain. |

The 2010 NNJR Concours season continues to forge ahead with great momentum. Our first new event for 2010 was the Deutscher Club Peoples Choice held on June 11. Having very little idea what to expect from this venue, I was truly blown away by what I experienced. Upon arriving at the club, I was surprised by the massive size. There had to be 100 plus picnic tables set among a beautiful out door setting underneath massive oak trees. There were several out buildings and an outdoor commercial kitchen rivaling that of Yankee Stadium. Within ten minutes of my arrival the sound of Porsches filled the air. At this point I knew we were in for another successful event. |

No one can say that NNJR’s Driver Education does not offer enough choices. Registration is still open for Mosport, an event that is co-sponsored with UCR (Upper Canada Region). One of our premier events of the year, Watkins Glen August 13-15, is now open and registration for our September 3-5 trip to Lightning opens July 12. While driver registration is now closed for the July 9-11 event at Thunderbolt at New Jersey Motorsports Park in Millville, NJ, I do want to invite non-participants to the track on Saturday, July 10. For only $35, you can see the track first hand by taking several touring laps (55 mph limit) at the end of the day and then join us for dinner. This event is dubbed “Shockwave at the Bolt”, and for good reasons - we will have a live band, Soulfinger Live, a nice dinner, and tee-shirts for all attendees! Just send me an email at trackchair@nnjr-pca.com to sign-up; we need to know how many people are coming in advance to plan for the dinner. |

Got Control? Well, we know of 56 drivers that now have a better sense of car control as a result of their participation in our Car Control Clinic. This event was held on May 23 at the New Meadowlands parking Lot J. You cannot believe how fantastic 1 million sqare feet of fresh pavement looks to an Autocrosser!!
The day started out at 6:00am for the wonderful volunteers who set the course and the registration desk. Special thanks to Bill Gilbert, Robert Ida, Dennis and Marlys Thovson, Drew Karpinski and the Rutherford Fire Department for their help in making this a successful event. A special thank you to our Instructors, all 29 of you, who supported this event and made it possible for each driver to have a dedicated instructor for the whole event. |

84 Ballots were cast at the Business Meeting on July 14 regarding By Laws amendments. All amendments to the By Laws proposed by the By laws Review Committee were approved by more than the ¾ majority required, as 68 Ballots were marked “Accept All”; thus, there was no further need to count itemized Ballots. The amendment proposed by David Novack did not receive the ¾ majority required. The Ballots cast were 20 votes to approve, 63 votes to reject and 1 blank Ballot. A copy of the newly approved revised By Laws are now posted at NNJR Bylaws |

As this spring turns into distant memory, NNJR autocrossers can look foreword to an exciting season ahead. During the spring session we again scheduled and held our two popular schools, the Car Control Clinic and Autocross School and a season opener at PNC. The Car Control Clinic was held at the new Meadowlands lot and boy is it big and smooth. We will be hosting three autocross events at the Meadowlands – New Giants/Jets Stadium parking lots later in the season. This venue along with the Road Course at Englishtown and others yet to be determined will fill out the year for us. |
