Lessons from other regions/sponsors?

[Phokaioglaukos]

Many of us have attended events with other clubs, PCA, BMW and others. Let's discuss what they do differently than we do that we might consider emulating.

I noted that Potomac PCA did the following differently:

1. At Summit Point the driver's meeting was in one classroom (warmer than outside) and the instructor's meeting was in another.[/*]
   
2. At the driver's meeting they passed out a sticker to be placed on the windshield to prove that the driver attended the meeting.[/*]
   
3. As soon as the last car was off the track for one session, the cars queued for the next session are sent out, holding up such of those cars not yet all the way into the paddock as necessary.[/*]
   
4. There is a section on the tech form that someone at grid tech completes. That form is then presented at registration so a couple of people get a look at it.

The BMW clubs:

1. Conduct grid tech the evening before at a local hotel (Seneca Lodge, for example), although one can also do grid tech the morning of the event. That allows some to sleep a bit later.[/*]
   
2. Provide adhesive numbers in the registration packet for each car.[/*]
   
3. Genesee Valley sends cars from the next group out just as soon as the last car of the previous group enters pit lane.

Let's get some differences identified, and then think about what, if anything, we might want to adopt.
