A Note from our RE

Well we completed another stellar event.  34 entrants, the weather was beautiful and the course was hot. We got 9 runs and were still out by 4:30.  Everyone's times were close but it was the two High Horsepower Vettes battling it out for FTD. The results have been posted. I want to thank everyone for their help, smart driving and support.  It's all of you that make for a great event. 

The pictures will be up soon.  I'm also going to be sending along a few photos I took from Sunday at the SCCA Nationals at the Glen.  Over 300 cars were there.  Everything from wild Formula cars, Sports Racers, Vintage Sprites and MG's, to high horse Vettes, Camaros, Ferrari's, Porsche's and even Panoz.  There are more Regional events coming so check the Glen region's web site.  I can tell you how to sign in as a guest for free, but you must be an SCCA member. SO.....Did I mention we're still leading the nation in Growth and Retention?  Check it out on page 14 of this month's Sportscar magazine.  I'll have more in the near future, but I can tell you that every member in the region receives some benefits from the SCCA in the form of discounts.  This is for those regions that lead in growth and retention. Renew your membership or grab a friend and bring them to our next event.

Speaking of our next event....   Details coming soon on our two days of fun with the Southern Tier Corvette Club.  Save August 14th and 15th on your calendar.

I'm slowly getting a few videos up on my youtube site.   Allies was the last video posted. http://www.youtube.com/user/RacrFanNY
I'll try and get more up soon.

See you at the races....                                     Darryl

A Note from our RE

Hi All;

Just a quick reminder that we will be holding our 3rd event at the Tompkins Cortland Community College on this Saturday the 1oth.   That’s Saturday, not Sunday.  TC3 is located just outside of Dryden, NY.  Registration closes at 10:00am sharp!  Please do not be late.  Dress for the weather and be prepared to have fun.   See you Saturday!

Darryl

A Note from our RE

Hi All;

Thoughts on Sunday....   WOW!.   After last year's Father's Day being our lowest attended event we were unsure of how many we would have this year.  46 entrants took time.  To all of you I again say THANK YOU.  It really makes your SNYR staff happy to see all of you having a great day.  That's what I love about SOLO, is about the fun, not the prize.  Seeing so many father and son teams also makes for a great day.   I've heard from many of you that you enjoy coming to SNYR events.  We hope that we can keep them affordable, well run and most of all... Fun.    

Now for the Thank You's.    Thanks to Jason, Jeanne, Brian, Sue, Lizz, Nick, Larry and Rob for putting this all together.  Without you all, this wouldn't happen.   Thank You to Matthews Auto group of Vestal for their support.  I'm sure more than a few of us walked away wishing we were running that R3 RX8 that Mike brought.   Please support Matthews, they have been very good to work with in their sponsorship.  If your at, or near, the Import Center on Vestal Road,  stop into the Mazda showroom and say Hi to Mike McNeal.   Hit the Matthews web site and see what they have.  Likewise,  make sure you get into Carquest in Binghamton or Vestal and take advantage of the SCCA discounts on all of their products.   By supporting our sponsors, they will support us.

Reserve the 10th (Saturday) of July for our event at the Tompkins Cortland Community College (TC3).  We have never been to this lot before so this will be an experience for all of us.  Registration closes promptly at 10:00am. If you have time that weekend, the 9th -11th is the national SCCA club racing event at Watkins Glen speedway.  If you are an SCCA member you may get in for free.  To do this you MUST GO TO REGISTRATION, and sign into the SCCA window.  Check the Glen or Glen region SCCA site for registration booth hours.  Going directly to the Gate 2 entrance will not get you into the track without paying. Call me if you need more information.

Results from Sunday are posted and pictures will be up soon in the Gallery.  See you at the races.

Father's Day Event

Hi,
It almost time again.   Our second event will be Sunday (Fathers Day) at Binghamton University, Lot "M."  Everyone is invited to come out and join us.  Here is a course map of the event.  As always this is only close, I'm sure we will changing a few things once we lay out the course.  Remember to prepare for the weather as we will run rain or shine.  Don't forget the sunscreen.   

Important:   REGISTRATION CLOSES at 10:00AM.    Due to the number of entrants we had at the last event, it is very important that you are there by 10:00am.   The earlier the better as we need to register you and tech your car.  I would really like to get started by 10:45 if possible.    If you're interested in helping out we would love to have you.    See you Sunday.

Also, Matthews will be there Sunday with a 2010 Mazda RX-8 R3 for display.  They may also have a Miata and a used 09 RX-8.   Even if you're not racing, stop by, say Hi and take a look.

Darryl

A note from our RE

Greetings;
I wanted to take a few minutes and reflect on Sunday's event.  First and foremost I must thank Jason Balliet.  Jason spent his entire day timing and scoring for us.  Jason has been instrumental in keeping our website up to speed as well as helping with the timing equipment.  Thanks Jason!   I‘m sure I overlooked others who helped make Sunday's event such a success. 
We had 38 entrants and a wide variety of cars.  We went from a killer vintage 'vette to an 06 Crown Vic police car (and about everything in-between).  I think it was fun course, with a bottom end that allowed for a little speed and a top challenging section.  The best thing was everyone stayed safe.  A few small spins, but otherwise we all drove home.  Fun and safety is our main goal at each and every event.  A big “THANKS” goes out to everyone who competed.  The hardest part on Father's Day is going to be topping Sunday's event!   The results from Sunday are posted (click on "Results" above). 
I’ve started to post the few videos I have on my youtube site.  They can be found at: http://www.youtube.com/user/RacrFanNY. Sorry, but I only grabbed a few, but there will be more next time.
Father's Day is coming soon.  Don’t forget, we are going to award points for the Glen Region's Arnot Mall event to be held June 13th.  Make sure you check out their schedule at www.glen-scca.org as they start earlier than we do.
Thanks again to our friends who came up from NEPA.  They have an event this weekend.   More info at: http://www.nepa-scca.com/solo2schedule.html.
Don’t forget to use your SCCA discount at Carquest in Vestal or Binghamton.  Even if you don’t have your card, let them know it’s the SCCA account.  The more use, the better the discounts.   Till next time.   Be safe.
Darryl

First Event - This Sunday!

Hi all;
We're getting close, less than a week away!  Our first event will be Sunday, May 23rd at BU, Lot M4.  As we did last year, registration closes at 10 and we want to have the first car off by 11:00.  We're really going to try and have our first car off by 10:45 if possible.  Prepare for the weather (heat or cold, rain or dry).  We run rain or shine (shine preferred).   If you're new, take a moment to check over some of the guidelines under our "Beginners Guide" tab on the left.  We're also adding to our schedule.  If you run in the "OOR" events with the Glen Region, you'll receive points toward our year end awards.   More on that at Sunday's event. 

Carquest is sponsoring our event Sunday.  Any participants will receive access to our SCCA account with the Vestal/Binghamton Carquest stores. This will give you all of your parts and supplies at garage prices.  The discounts are great!  Take advantage.  This will also allow Carquest to see how many of our members use their stores when you purchase on the account..       

We're looking foreword to seeing all of you and having a great event.

Tire Rack® SCCA Northeast Divisional Solo Championships

The Tire Rack® SCCA Northeast Divisional Solo Championships are scheduled for May 28-30, 2010, at FedEx Field in Landover, Md., and hosted by the Washington DC Region of the Sports Car Club of America. Registration is now open.

We are also making an Evolution Performance Driving School available to competitors on Friday. Please go to www.Evoschool.com for more information and contacts.

A note from our RE

To all of our SOLO friends;

As we prepare for the 2010 season, I just wanted to take a moment to update you on a few things.  We have been hard at work trying to find additional locations.  As some of you may know, Broome Community College is no-longer renting out their lots on weekends.  With that, we are working on a Saturday event in July at Tompkins Cortland Community College.  They have been very open to hosting an event.  The only drawback is that we will have to hold our event on a Saturday.  Right now we're looking at the 10th or 24th of July.  Keep an eye here for future schedule announcements. 
In early April, 4 of us completed the Solo Safety Steward (SSS) class.  Additionally Nick recertified as a SSS.   This will help to ensure that there are always at least 2 Solo Safety Stewards per event. 

I also wanted to share with you this web address.          http://www.azsolo.com/classes/car_class_worksheet_2008.pdf      This is an excellent checklist of the modifications you may make in the various  categories.  If you're running anything other than a bone stock car, take a moment to see in which category  you would fall.   You can then follow-up with your car make and model with the SCCA.org site and determine your class.

As of the end of March our Region is still in the top three for retention and growth.    LETS BE NUMBER 1!.   If you're thinking of joining the SCCA, now is a great time.  You'll receive the SCCA's Sportscar magazine, a discount on SOLO event registration as well as numerous discounts on car rentals, auto parts distributors, hotel rates, and a whole lot of other services.    Join Now.   If your already a member now is a great time to bring along a friend.

Remember, keep checking this site! 

 Thank You for your support and we'll see you in May.  

Darryl

Solo Safety Steward Training

April 11th from 1-4 pm.  The training will be held at 105 Oak Street, Binghamton.   If you are interested or want more information on what a Solo Safety Steward does please contact Brian or Darryl.  There is no cost for this training.   SSS candidates must be SCCA members and completed SSS trainee reading prior to taking the course.  Upon completion a SSS trainee must assist at two events.

Thanks  Darryl..   

An Update from Our RE

Greetings;

Here is the latest.  The bad news is we have lost BCC as a lot.  The campus has decided that they are no longer going to rent their lots on weekends.  With that, we are down an event.  One possible option is to add another Ithaca event on the BCC date.  I have two more sites to check on this week.  If you have any large smooth lots in your area, please see if you can contact an owner and get us into the lot. 

The good news is that our region is ranked in the top 3 for small region growth and retention.   This is a contest that SCCA runs for the year.  Let’s get out there and renew our memberships.  If you’re not a member, now is a great time to join.  

Joining the SCCA is easily done via the SCCA.org site.  If you have a friend who is interested, bring him along to our first event. 

LETS MAKE HISTORY IN THE SNYR REGION!

Thank you for the support so-far and stay-tuned for more information.

2010 Preliminary Season Schedule

Greetings Fellow Solo Racers;

   Our preliminary 2010 season schedule is now on the web site.  Just click on “Schedule” at the top of the screen, or on “Full Schedule” under Event Info. The Opening event will be May 23rd at Binghamton University, Lot M. Our second event will also be at BU on Father’s Day, June 20th. Hope to see more father-son competitions this year! The third event is tentatively scheduled for July 18 at BCC. We have not confirmed that one yet, but  we’ll keep you posted. On Aug. 15th we’ll be back at BU. This is planned to be a joint event with the Corvette Club and span Sat. and Sun. We will be back at Pyramid Mall in Ithaca for a Labor Day Weekend event on Sept. 5th.  In addition to these events, we will likely have an OOR event with the Glen Region and we are planning to have a reunion event for past members. We will continue to update the schedule as event details and additional dates firm up, so KEEP CHECKING THE WEB SITE.

   In other news, we were at SpeedWorld 2010 this past weekend at the Oakdale Mall. Due to the weather, the show was shortened to Sat. and Sun., and we were only able to put one car in our display. However, we had a good amount of traffic and interest over the two days. A special thanks to  SNYR members past and present who stopped by to help out with the display, or to just say hello, and to all those potential members who stopped to find out more about us and about solo racing. We hope to see you all this season.

Brian

Just a quick reminder, we will be at the Oakdale Mall for the Speedworld 2010 show on February 26-28.  Stop by and see us and our display.  Also, anyone is welcome to help man the display especially Friday and Saturday evenings. We'll have cars on display and videos from last years events.  We'd love to see you. 

Darryl

Greetings fellow solo fanatics;

We are still hard at work trying to come up with a schedule for 2010.  Mark your calendars, we have the Sunday of Labor Day weekend reserved at the Shops at Ithaca.  Last year we had great weather and a great event.  Let's hope 2010 is just as good.

We're still waiting to hear from the SUNY B and BCC campuses.  Changes in both administrations have made it more difficult for us to reserve the lots.  As soon as we hear, we'll pass it along.  With that in mind,  if anyone knows of a large lot that we may be able to use please let us know.

Finally...   We will again be at the Oakdale Mall for the Speedworld 2010 show.  Stop by and see us and our display.  We'll have two cars on display and videos from last years events.  We'd love to see you.  Thanks for stopping by our site and we hope to see you at an event in 2010.

Darryl

Well Christmas is over and the new year is here. Time to start thinking about the 2010 season! I know, the temperature is in the teens, the wind chill is below 0, and the ground is covered with snow and ice, but I'm itching for the new season to get started. Since we can't get out there just yet, the web site has been updated with new pictures from the 2009 season. We have compressed the files that were out there, so hopefully they can now be downloaded easier. We've also added pictures from the Ithaca event. Check it out, and let us know if you have any problems viewing them.

Also, keep checking back here in the coming weeks and months for additional news on the 2010 season.

Brian

On Friday evening, December 11, while heading to the Glen Region Awards Banquet, Ed and his family were hit head on by a vehicle that slid or drifted into their lane. Ed and his wife Cheryl suffered minor injuries. His son Dallas suffered internal injuries, and is recovering at Arnot Hospital in Elmira. Ed's mother, Mary Ann, suffered fractured bones and internal injuries and is recovering at Strong Hospital in Rochester.   

Many of us at SNYR have run at Glen Region events and know Ed as the RE of the Glen Region and a cart racer, and know his son Dallas, who is a junior cart racer. Let's all keep Ed and his family in our thoughts and prayers, and wish them a speedy recovery.  

One final thought, as Ed has said numerous times since the accident, "be prepared to react to the other guy!"  

Hi all;
Our end of year get-together is set for November 7th, 6:45pm at JONATHAN'S in Endwell.  The address is 534 Hooper Road (corner of Hooper and Pruyne St).  Right now we have 20 people coming.  That is about all we can get into the room we have so if anyone else is coming we have to know.  It's going to be tight (kind of like 5 people in a mini), but we're going to have fun.  The Region will be ordering Pizza, wings and other stuff to be determined.  We'll also order the soda.  All other beverages will be on your own.  There are 8 trophy winners (results on the web site), but we'll have a little something for everyone.

Darryl

Greetings;  

The 2009 season is almost over!  Almost because we still have to have our year end party.  This is where we need your help.  Having had such a successful season has left us wondering how many are coming to our awards get together.   So…  Mark your calendars now;  Saturday November 7th, 2009. Time: 6:30pm.  The location will be somewhere in the Endwell/Endicott/Vestal area.

This is where you come in.   We need an RSVP so we can determine where we will hold our event.  The SNYR Region will be picking up the Pizza, wings and appetizers.   Beverages will be on your own.  Please make sure you e-mail Brian ( bballiet@stny.rr.com ) or me (lindsaydj@earthlink.net ) as soon as possible so we can find a location.

There are 8 class award winners (only those making 4 or more of our events were eligible) who will be receiving trophy’s, but we will have something for everyone.  We will also be holding a quick membership meeting as part of our night.

Thank You for a great year and I look forward to seeing you Saturday night 11/7.

Darryl

The final points and pax results are now posted. Click on 'Season Standings' at the left. The 2009 results have been moved to the Season Standings link and and results from 2008 and before are in the Past Results link.. Please remember that to qualify for a 2009 championship, you must have attended at least 4 events (in the same car).
Keep watching the website! We'll be announcing the date and time for the year end get together soon!

Hi All;
Our season is over, but we couldn’t have gone out on a better note.  With beautiful weather, a fun course and 36 willing drivers we had a great day. Several of the class battles were decided by tenths of a second  (and even a few by a hundredth).  In the end it was the little yellow Miata that beat us all.  The results are up, so check them out.
I have to give out a few thank you's for a great season.  Liz and Jeanne for all of their work behind the scenes, Jason and Sue for their help with the web site and most importantly timing.  Brian and Rob for their help with the course design and general all around advice.  Nick for his guidance… and, to all of you who made it to one or more of our events.
We are still working on our photos, hopefully soon.  If you have photos please let us know.  We have also started a facebook page.  Check us out or leave a note on our wall.  SNYR SCCA.
We're not done yet!  Watch the site for news about our end of year party.  As soon as we can get the standings straight and a little time to purchase some awards we will be putting something together, sooo stay tuned.

Greetings;
Sunday will be our 6th event and we're at a new location.  We will be using the lot behind the Target store at the Shoppes at Ithaca.  This is the mall at Triphammer Road.  This is a new location so we want to have a good showing of cars for the mall.  This is also a chance to show the public what we do.  Bring your friends, and family so they can shop while we race. 
As always, registration will close at 10:00 and first car off at 11:00. If you'r on Face Book, send a friend request to SNYR SCCA which is our new page  (Still under construction).
A special Thank You to Ben Heater from the Glen Region who will be our Safety Steward for the day.  THANKS BEN!
The weather for Sunday is calling for sunny and 70's so no reason not to join us.  Hope to see you there.

Darryl

Click here for a photo of our course ( or at least something like it).

The results from our August 23rd event are posted. Just click on the 'Past Results' link on the left, then on the date. The little problems we had with timing and scoring should all be corrected in the results!

Greetings to all;
Were getting ready for the next SNYR SCCA Solo event. It's this Sunday, the 23rd, at Binghamton University Lot "M."  Registration closes at 10:00am sharp.  Drivers meeting at 10:15 (if possible) and first car off as soon as were ready.  Later this week we'll be posting a little about worker responsibilities and safety issues. 
For anyone interested, the Southern Tier Corvette Club is running an event at Cherry Valley Go-Kart Track in Lafyette.  Yes, they run cars on the go-kart track!  Weather permitting I and my son Steve will be going with our F440.  Anyone interested can see the flyer which is linked below or drop me a line.

Lastly... the pictures from some of this year's events are now online! Click on 'Gallery' above.
Keep checking the web site as the week goes on.  More to follow.  Hope to see you at the races.

Darryl  (Region #37 R.E.)

From the Southern Tier Corvette Club: An Autocross Event on Aug. 22 at Cherry Valley.

From the Finger Lakes Region: The Fun One on Sept. 19-20 at Watkins Glen.

The results from our July 19th event are posted. Just click on the 'Past Results' link on the left, then on the date. The little problems we had with timing and scoring should all be corrected in the results!

It's almost time for our next event.  This Sunday, the 19th, we will be at Broome Community College in  the baseball field lot (lot#4).   We will be there at 07:30 to set up.  There is a limited amount of parking behind the dugouts for about 25 cars.  First 25 will get the prime spots.  Don't worry, there is plenty of additional room in the two lots adjoining the course.  WE NEED YOUR HELP!  This is a great lot, but there is a lot of small fine sand in various areas of the lot.  We need to sweep (or blow) the course as we walk.  If you can come early and bring a broom it would be greatly appreciated.  And lastly...
- Registration closes at 10:00. First car off as soon as we're ready thereafter. 
- If your car was teched last time and it was pointed out that you had issues (wheel bearing or worn tires) please have them taken care of so you can run.
- If you're borrowing a helmet you need to bring the head covers that we gave out the first event.

 GOOD LUCK                       Darryl

Hi All,
Just a quick update and a few reminders for the upcoming Father's Day Dash to be held at BU. This is an out of region points event for the Glen Region so we may have a few extra cars. Because of this I’m going to ask if it is possible that those who know they are coming reply to the g-mail account(snyrscca@gmail.com) or to my(lindsaydj@earthlink.net) or Brian Balliet's(bballiet@stny.rr.com) email that they are attending. We will try to pre-register as many people as possible. This will save time when you come to the registration table. We are going to try and stay on schedule and start immediately after the course walk-through. You must be there by 10:00AM to register!

• We have no more skull caps for those borrowing helmets. Please bring the caps you used at the first event if you're borrowing a helmet.

• It is very possible that Channel 12 will be there to cover our event (this is not yet confirmed)!

• Anyone wishing to help with set-up we would love to have you. We will be there at 07:30 that morning.

• We will again have water and Gatorade for donations of $1.00. Let us know if this is an issue, we want everyone to be safe if it is a hot day.

• If you are a member please have your SCCA license. For those who just joined and have not received your cards you may print out the email for us. Make sure you have a drivers license with you if you're not a member.

Lets have fun and we’ll see you at the races…… Darryl  

Hi All,
What a great day we had Sunday! The weather held and we were able to get in 6 runs. I thanked a lot of people, but I forgot the biggest Thank You. That goes to all of you, the competitors. Everyone did a great job staying safe and quickly transitioning to their work assignments.

Now for a few thoughts. Remember, there is always someone around to ride along if you need help. We are all here to have fun. If your struggling, just ask for help. We've all been there before and know that it takes time to improve. Our next points event is the Glen Region's Arnot Mall event this Sunday.  Check their web site (www.glenn-scca.org) for times and directions. Our next home event is Sunday June 21st (Dad's day) at Binghamton University in the same lot.

Not all of you were sure about the weekend memberships. You may join the SCCA at the web site (www.SCCA.org) and receive a $15.00 membership discount by using the "W" number on the top right corner of your form. If you lost your form just email me (lindsaydj@earthlink.net) and I'll get it to you. If joining by mail, send in the copy of the form. Should you race again before joining you'll receive a second $15.00 discount. $30.00 is the total amount you may take off your membership. THESE DISCOUNTS ARE ONLY GOOD FOR 60 DAYS FOLLOWING YOUR WEEKEND EVENT SO DON'T MISS OUT.

Lastly, the results from Sunday can be found by clicking the 'Past Results' link on the left. We're still working out a few computer issues, so there are a few "NA's" recorded for times. Your times were recorded via the back-up system (pen and legal pad).I did not have access to them when typing the results.

Thanks again for a great day. Watch this site, when we hear about the RacingWorld article we'll post where it may be found.

See you at the races.        Darryl

Greetings to All;

We are a little over a week away from our first event.  I wanted take this time to remind everyone of a few things as well as make an announcement about the 24th.  As you know May 24th at Binghamton University is our first event. Please take a look at the web site and the information listed.  

• We will be starting an hour earlier this year.  It is important that you are there, registered and your car ready for tech inspection by 10:00am.  This will help us to complete all of the paperwork, data entry and get started on time.
• This is a day long commitment.  When you are not driving, you are either working, or in some cases resting.  We hope to be done and start awards around 4:00pm.
• We race Rain or Shine (Shine strongly preferred).  Unless it is too dangerous from pooling water or thunderstorms we will race.  Remember, you are going to be working, so dress accordingly. 
• We do not break for lunch so bring food.  We will have drinks for a dollar donation.

Our goal is to get everyone as many runs as possible.  We need your cooperation to work with us and be ready for your run or assignment at all times.

And Now the NEWS!  Racing World Magazine is going to cover our event.  Here is your chance to possibly make it into a national racing magazine.  Racing World is a new magazine covering motorsports in the Northeast.  They are trying to cover all forms of motorsports, especially the grassroots type of racing.  They are just now putting out their first issues.  You can sign up for a free subscription at RacingWorldMagazine.com.  Lets all get out there and support them (it’s Free).  Their writer will be bringing free issues for all.  In addition Matthews Auto group will be bringing cars Sunday to sit in and check out.  They will arrange a test drive for you at a later time. 
See you there.
                                                                                    Darryl
        (R.E.  Region #37) 

Greetings Fellow SCCA members;
We’re getting close to our opener, and things are happening quickly.   Members of your board have been busy getting things ready.  We’ve purchased more cones to replace some of those “Well used” ones.  Forms, tech stickers and new helmets are all on order.  Matthews Auto Group is planning on having a few new vehicles at our opener for us to look at.  Maybe there will be an RX-8, a Miata, WRX STI, Cobalt SS or even a Z-06!  Because of insurance regulations we cannot drive the cars that day, but, they will be open for you to check them out.  The salesman there will be happy to set up a test drive for you.  If you stop into a Matthews Dealership please let them know you read about them on our site.  Additionally, check out their link under our schedule.
A member of SNYR, Jim Feeney, has been hard at work setting up a road rally.  The Penn-York rally will be held on May 1st, 2nd and 3rd.  The starting point will be at the Beach Lake Fire Hall, Beach Lake PA. This is a charity event to raise money for the Beach Lake, PA Fire Dept.  The route is being setup by the Northeast Rally Club which helps run two SCCA sanctioned rallies each year.  This event is sponsored by our region.  If your interested contact Jim at jfeeney@stny.rr.com 
Let’s get together!   We’re going to hold a pre-season solo meeting at Bobby’s Place in Endwell on Thursday night, April 16th, at 6:30pm.  Bobby’s is located at 2906 E Main St Endwell.  If you’re new and just want to meet and hang out, or, wish to become involved in the planning, course design or running an event, stop by.  All are welcome. We would love to see you there.

Hope to see you at all the events!
