Thought we should start throwing around ideas for events at WCR...a meet and greet thursday night is a given, as is a couple drives but maybe we could discuss other event possibilities.
I had a thought of maybe some sort of tech sessions from our resident experts? I know we would be limited but maybe we could put our heads together of common repairs/upgrades that someone could do a step by step of what is involved? Maybe a brake caliper break down and assemble? Any other ideas? |

Today's effort.
I contacted the following vendors PMB Performance EvilWerks Engman Parts JWest Engineering Bruce Stone Weidman Wheels I asked the following people to do tech sessions Eric Shea Brakes Mike Lesniak Transmissions Al or Harvey Weidman Wheels Mark or Jake engine build I had an idea about Type IV engine building. Mark mentioned building an engine as a tech session. What if - I have a kit coming for a NA Type IV of about 2.4 Liters in displacement. How about giving Jake a round trip Southworst Airlines ticket and a room? Mark is good and that could be considered an Original Customs sponsorship but Jake is a bigger draw and a more colorful character. I envision a half day of tech sessions run all at the same time or split them half a day for two and the other half for two. Attendance is optional... Someone needs to contact other sponsors. I think others might know Pelican, Performance, Morphenspectra, etc. better than I do. Rob |
