N49

Post by Jen and Don »

Just want to personally thank the organizers of this weekends event! I, as somewhat of a new driver, was reluctant to enter. I didn't want to be a pylon out there and cause more grief for the experienced drivers. I actually thought about volunteering instead, but I am so glad I raced. Very much needed experience was gained and had so much fun.
Thanks you guys, I only know a few that were a big part of this event and I am sorry if I miss mentioning others personally, But Jack Mazzury , Jake Thompson , John Quan, and Phil Haggerty. Not to mention all the weekend volunteers.! It's a huge undertaking from months ago.
Again, I am sorry if I can't name other individuals that played a big part in this weekend but just know, we are all thankful for your time and effort. Maybe a list of everyone involved was printed from those "in the know" , would allow others to thank them when we see them at the track again.

A very grateful, Don Gibson

I would like to echo Don’s message. Last year I volunteered, but wished I had entered the race. Racing this year was a ton of fun!

Also a big thanks to the marshals and other volunteers. All the Trim family smiling faces were greatly appreciated.

And a big thank you to all the sponsors. Relying on my memory and in no particular order:
Phil Haggerty and Snap-On Tools
The Gentleman Pros and Recon Metals
Overdrive Motorsports
StoreWall
My apologies to any sponsors that I have failed to mention.
