ARMS has reported that the club's cheques have been received. Race Report Taylor has been talking to a resident in Truro who immigrated from Europe where he raced. He has a prepared MkII Escort which he's trying to decide about importing or whether to buy something here. The Race school will proceed as normal on the first ARMS Race weekend. The location of the Friday classroom session will be decided at the end of April after participant numbers/locations are determined. Options of Vantage Motors in Truro and Kartbahn Go-Karting are available. Rally Report The next TSD Rally Event is a BAC Club Event, named the April Foolishness Rally, organized by Perry Falconer and Sherrie Hennigar. The next regional TSD event should be the BAC Bluenose Rally in June. One more RallyCross event on the calendar for April 17th. RallySprint is progressing with the first event scheduled for July. Solo Report Jason is still making arrangements for the Digby July 1st weekend, the airport is booked but the Admiral Hotel is being difficult to nail down. If they fall through Jason with make arrangements with the Kingfisher Hotel. The Kingfisher does not have onsite dining or pool so it is the second choice. Taylor is still trying to make arrangements with the Band Council and management for a lot in Truro. The lot in question is approximately 2x the size of Leons. If arrangements can be made Taylor would like to try to arrange a Tune and Test/School plus a Slalom event and offer rides and participation to the general public. The lot also has good lightning suitable for evening events. As of right now there are 9 Slalom events scheduled for ASCC in 2011. Dates have been posted on the website and locations are still TBD. Scotia Speed World will not confirm track availability until late April. An extended discussion concerning Slalom lots took place. New Business ASN Insurance packages was discussed, it was decided to go with the 0-11 event package. We have a credit with ASN from a cancelled SoloSprint event from 2010. Jason will post information about the Spring High Performance Driving session to the ARMS website tonight. An online PayPal registration page will be created on the ASCC website. Jason suggested that the cost be increased to $200 since the lapping license costs are increasing (Not including club membership) Taylor has indicated that the Truro Mall is open to displaying vehicles and presentations in the mall. We should look at having a motorsport related mini-show a weekend this year. Meeting adjourned at: 8:26pm. Todo: Direct PayPal@ascc.ca to Taylor -- Done.
