Don’t Lift Stan Corbett Wow! The 2012 NER DE season is over. Our last two events were very close together — WGI on August 24th–26th, followed two weeks later by our final event at NHMS on September 11th–12th. My report on WGI is in this issue and I’ll report on NHMS next month. An item of note — we finished the 2012 DE season with no rain for the year! We came close — we had a shower one morning at CMP that dried up before the track went hot, and it rained at WGI (of course) after the track went cold Sunday afternoon. Our big driver giveaway this year was umbrellas — really nice, really big, golf umbrellas at WGI. Because not everyone that attended the event at WGI picked up their umbrellas, participants at the final event at NHMS also received umbrellas. We ordered 164 umbrellas and they are gone. I hope all our drivers liked them. Based on the comments I received, most folks appreciated getting something other than the usual shirts or hats. Once again, I would ask if any of our attendees are interested in providing a write-up, long or Please take the time to join me in thanking the members of the Track Committee for their efforts this year missing runs on track, to make the event flow smoothly. This year’s Track Committee has been: Track Chair, Stan Corbett Chief Instructor, Jerry Pellegrino Track Operations, Joe Billmaier Novice Development, Dick Anderson DE Registrar, Mark Keefe Chief Scrutineer, Chris Outzen Track Tech Lead, Ann Anderson Instructor Development, Ray Bahr Control Chief, Kristin Larson DE Socials, Adrianne Ross (also On-track Registrar at several events) Ground School, Steve Artick Consultant, Matthew Wallis (also Chief Instructor when Jerry is not available) Please take the time to join me in thanking the members of the Track Committee for their efforts this year. Encourage them to stay on for another season (hint, hint). Next month I will report out on our new DE Rebate Program and our final event, September 11th–12th at NHMS. Didn’t Lift!, Stan short, on one of our events please send it along to me or to Adrianne, our newsletter editor. If it’s short and you send it to me, I’ll probably include it in this column (you’ll get a shout-out of appreciation). If it’s longer, I’ll coordinate with Adrianne to decide on how to use it. You can also send along pictures if you like — no guarantees, but we may use some of them. I noted earlier in the year my trepidation with being your new Track Chair, stepping into a role so well done by Bruce Hauben and, before him, by Laurie Jitts. Now that the season is over I can look back and say I enjoyed the job. Yes, there were moments of near panic and some less than stellar statistics (we had a reportable incident in all but one event). I can honestly say that I flat-out enjoyed the job and especially found running the WGI event fun! Much of the credit for the success of the DE season goes to your track committee. Several of the members put in many hours prior to our events handling registrations, creating schedules and worker assignments, and linking students and instructors together. All of the members put in time at the track, sometimes 59 Pond Street Norwell MA 02061 877-PORSCHE www.porschenorwell.com Stan on track.
