Hi guys some ideas and issues about the 2016 race season for the North West...
We have lost Mt. Hood CC, and Lacey WA as races for next year. We only had 6 races last year with Mapleton not having a race so we are now down to 4 races unless we add more. Hood River, Valley River Center-Thurston's, Pasco, WA, and Lane CC-Willamete's.
Many of you have said that we have too many races and travel too far for some. I will agree to go down to 4 races that 'count' toward the state standing but I would like to have at least 6 possible races with at least two designated as optional and not counting toward the standings.
Since we lost our first race of the season at Mt Hood CC, Willamette High could take that spot and do one at LCC. If you want so that we can do the inspections of all of the cars and set up all of the envelopes with new paperwork for each car that Mark and Aaron have taken care of for years. I would like to do this on March 12th.. Our spring break is the 19th through the 27th and I want this first race sometime in March....This is about the same time frame as Mt Hood CC was each year.... How does that sound??? THIS WOULD BE A RACE THAT COUNTS TOWARD THE STANDINGS.
Then if Jeff Blackman can haul the barrier trailer back to Hood River and figure how to get it back to Eugene, they could have the next race on April 2nd or April 9th so there is spring break and two or three weeks of classes in between the first two races for modifications etc. after the first testing of the cars. Ideas? THIS WOULD BE A RACE THAT COUNTS TOWARD THE STANDINGS.
Then April 23rd or 30th Pasco could hold its race. (I think the usual time on the 4th weekend in April?) Many have said they can not or are not able to make that race as it is too far, the transportation cost is too high, school regulations make it a No No, etc. SO THIS WOULD BE A RACE THAT DOES NOT COUNTS TOWARD THE STANDINGS.
Aril 30th could be the Thurston race at Valley River Center....Or we could toss in a new race there....I am thinking either Bend or the one that Shannon was looking into in Washington a little North of Lacey or one at Orgon Raceway Park near Grass Valley Oregon that hosted a 'Demo day' on July 2nd???? How does this work out for everyone???? No matter where it was. Host get first come first served on the dates and counting or not counting dates. Since there are two weeks between races that count toward the standing...THIS WOULD BE A RACE THAT COUNTS TOWARD THE STANDINGS.
May 7th could be again Thurston's, Bend's, Shannon's, or an Oregon Raceway Park race. There is only one week between counting races on this one SO THIS WOULD BE A RACE THAT DOES NOT COUNTS TOWARD THE STANDINGS.
May 14th again would be Thurston's, Bend's, Shannon's, or an Oregon Raceway Park race. This would give us two weeks between races that count SO THIS WOULD BE A RACE THAT COUNTS TOWARD THE STANDINGS.
May 28th and 29th would be PIR this year. This give us two weeks to modify our 'short track cars' to make them more areodynamic and ready for the fast track.
Then we will have to see about any other races. during the spring that anyone wants to put on they would be on the weekends off from "counting" races and fill in the schedule more but may be good for races so kids can gain experience, or races at places near teams that don't make many races that are a long way off like those in the Pasco area.
PLEASE LET MY KNOW WHAT YOU THINK AND POST THEM ON THIS SITE SO OTHERS CAN SEE WHAT IS GOING ON.
Thanks,
MIKE HODGERT

Here are the standing and places for the first 3 races of the NW season. You can go onto MyLaps and go to "karting" and 'USA' Then go to the dates (LCC 3/12, Hood River 4/2, and Valley River Center 4/23) to see individual race information. Pasco will be on 4/30 and Mapleton at 5/22. We will have our end of the year event on May 28th and 29th at Portland International Raceway with a long track and 'short road' track race each day. We then have from 1 to 3 two day events over the summer.
