 Re: 3 Young Guns and an old guy

 Re: 3 Young Guns and an old guy
Dan, According to MReg, Farhan isn't an LAKC member. Additionally, there is only one PRD Jr 1 driver currently registered. What happens if the class is eliminated due to low participation? Doesn't it state somewhere in the LAKC rules that that's a possibility?

 Re: 3 Young Guns and an old guy
Claim 1: Membership. Young Gun Myles will be a member this Saturday. Claim 2: Valid concern. What will the team series rules allow if LAKC cancels a class that has impact on a team competition? Can our team retroactively replace a driver-class? I ask only as a precaution. Since PRD1 held out in 2012, we are confident it will grow and also hold out in 2013. I bet last year's champions are shaking in their boots! Did they hire you to pick our team apart. If they did, it's understandable.

 Re: 3 Young Guns and an old guy
Unfortunately, no one hired me... I'm just trying to help a poor, little private team to best compete against the massive resources of a sponsor team. David vs. Goliath  Rivera and three kids vs. MRC and the Brazilian Superstar Exciting stuff!!

Looks like I need to cut Matt's access to the backend off Guess he did not realize that you have until March 14th to finalize the Team which means he can becaome a member anytime before that. We will be running the PRD-1 program for the whole season. Keep in mind RLV is paying for the entries for the first 4 races for all LAKC Members in that class. That in addition to the engine deal for $999 makes running this class a "NO BRAINER". If only my youngest son wwanted to race this season Good luck with you team Dan Jarrod

 Re: 3 Young Guns and an old guy
Well that didn't take long.
Bad News: 3 Young Guns and an an old guy has suffered casualties in the team series battle and has disbanded. Our drivers have been lured away by big business, deep pocket, lobbying sponsors. I'm am sorry, but we will never witness what this all-star team would have accomplished in LAKC's team series.
Good News: It appears participation in this year's team series will increase significantly from last year, which was the ultimate objective anyway. I am quite happy to see more sponsors putting teams together to recognize their drivers and compete as teams.

 Re: 3 Young Guns and an old guy
