Meeting Notes:
  • SCCV banquet is tonight! SCCV purchase pizza and soft drinks and would have handed out the awards, but..... things did not quite work out. We will make sure to have them for the March meeting.
  • Read the last meeting notes.
  • Read the proposed 2013 NEHA rules and the SCCV accepted them. Steve J to post in the NEHA forums that we accepted them.
  • Talked about the Buffum winter rally..... good times! Steve J and Don T did tech and worked a checkpoint and Dave G drove his 325ix. Rally ended early (1am) instead of the usual all night adventure.
  • Nick W to follow up with Elaine on twisted 18/2 pair wire for Philo. Note this topic in NEHA forums: http://www.hillclimb.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=918
  • Tim W to get dollar amount for 50 cones from ambulance service
  • SLMP is $1500 per event in 2013 thanks to Erik R's hard work... shooting for two events this year.
  • Erik R organized SLMP.... see SCCV forums for event May 4-5, 2013 viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3944
  • Wintercross field is ready, but with ebb and flow of cold/warm temperatures we have not scheduled an event.
    We want the ground to be frozen so we do not damage it.... leave more marks come summer.
    Next year we will start this effort in Jan. Thanks to Paul D for checking on the site and trying to put something together.

  • Seth and Steve to speak with SCCNH folks while at Burke regarding wire; otherwise, shoot for Ascutney
  • Tim got the price for cones... $6.80 per cone. Someone will need to take inventory to determine how many we need.
  • Next autocross is 07-Sep-2013
  • Burke is this weekend!
  • Steve will e-mail state regarding Philo (to get paperwork for the event)
  • We need to determine if we are cooking at Philo like they did at Ascutney #1 or having Dave cook. Cost is a factor. Lack of people/time is another.
  • Philo registrar is Seth A.
  • Philo Chair Steve J / co-chair Nick W / co-co-chair Chris R

  • Wire discussion with Drew Young (SCCNH); wire went to Walter Clark as he will make drops, etc. We, collectively, will determine how much SCCV will pay for wire. We might have a choice of steel or copper; future discussion will occur.
  • Tim got the price for cones... $6.80 per cone. We need to look in inventory to determine what we need AND look at the bank account.
  • NEHA banquet is Feb 8, 2014. Steve J. is organizing this year as it is SCCV's turn to host the event.
  • Philo registrar is now Erik as Seth has other commitments at VTSC.
  • Discussion of NEHA points to see if a rule change is needed to attract people to the last event of the year when the series points are already determined by the other event. One really good idea is that the points at each event could take into account the number of runs. This would (potentially) weight Philo more than another event and could change the results for the season. It also adds a little unknown into the series.
  • Philo Chair Steve J / co-chair Chris R / co-co-chair Nick W / co-co-co-chairchick Julie
  • Discussed Philo. See Philo organization thread for more information: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=4045

  • Ideas to get people to go to Philo:
    * Weighted events by # of official runs
    * Philo counts double points
    * Must drive at least one event for each club (SCCV, SCCNH, KSCC)
  • Talked about organization for Philo the rest of the night
