Regional Executive
Wow, another month has come and
gone and now we are almost done
with the first half of 2007. It just
amazes me how quickly times
passes. I first want to say GET
WELL, SOON!! To Patt Buell, our
Exhaust Notes Editor. As of this
writing, she is in the hospital and I
hope she is in for a speedy recovery, because the newsletter is
huge and is almost more than I can handle right now on top of
everything else. Besides, she does such a great job!
cover and a cool breeze with no rain to be had. The 64 entrants had five runs each and I heard people say they really
enjoyed the course design that West and Jan Gerber put together. Also wanted to say good going to Sue Eckles for top
time of day. Way to go, girl!
Great job to all Solo Eventmasters!
The next events coming up are the June 10th Solo at the Lancaster Event Center with Scott Embury as Eventmaster and
June 24th back at the Lincoln Airpark with Dave Brown as
Eventmaster.
On Saturday, July 14th, there will be a Solo school put on at
Lincoln Southwest High School. This is the day before the Solo
on July 15th; both will be put together by Jon Simmons. There
is more information later in this Exhaust Notes.
How is this for getting more females involved; Natha Waldbaum is putting together a “BootY Camp” at Motorsports Park
Hastings set for June 23rd. More information is in this Exhaust
Notes.
The NRSCCA Board has determined that we will use the SPS
Divisional event at Heartland Park Topeka on August 4th & 5th
to score points toward the Gymkhana Driver of the Year award.
See you at the track!

race was MVRG’s May Run at Mid-America Motorplex with our
partner Des Moines Valley Region. I believe that fun was had
by most. I know of a few troubled engines and those make
for some disappointments.
The Solo on May 6th was at Mid America Center and the Eventmasters were Suraj Pradhan and Phillip Tesar. There had
been rain in the forecast for the entire weekend; however,
they managed to run the event totally in the dry. The set-up
was in the rain and as soon as we had the course cleaned up,
it began to rain again. Great timing, guys! Overall, the day
went well, the 62 entrants had five runs each and the event
ran smooth.
Eventmaster West Pierce’s Solo was May 27th at Lincoln Airpark. His event went off very nicely as well. There was cloud
