On Saturday, October 23rd, we will have the awards celebration for the 2010 Great Lakes Solo Series! The awards banquet will take place at the Ray Skillman Classic Car Museum on the south side of Indianapolis. Ray Skillman has over 250 classic muscle cars on display at all times. The facility will be open for us to wander through and look at the cool cars starting at 2:00. A town hall meeting will be held at 3:00 to discuss the series – this past year and into the future. We will have a casual dinner at 5:30 pm right at Ray Skillman’s, followed by the awards presentation. Cost is $15 per person. However, if you ran two days of competition in the series this year and we receive your registration by October 2nd, the price of admission for you is a mere $5!

October 23rd will be a great time to celebrate the 25 years of the Great Lakes Solo Series and where can you get a dinner for $5?!

The Region is looking for a few volunteers to transport and operate our Solo Timing equipment at a very special event during this years Auburn / Cord / Duesneberg Festival in Auburn In. We have been asked to participate by Steve Kammeyer of Ft Wayne Region SCCA to help with the timing and scoring of an all Duesenberg drag race at a nearby airport. There are already 36 cars entered in the race with several others reportedly commiting but have yet to submit an entry. This is a first for the festival, a unique event in the history of Duesenberg. You 'll get to help put on what has to be a drag race with the most valuable and historic automobiles ever! In addition, the volunteers will be able to attend the festival banquet and bump elbows with the rich and famous. The drag race will be on Friday September 2nd. To volunteer, call Steve Kammeyer @ 260-632-5200 or e-mail stevekammeyer@excite.com To learn more about the Auburn / Cord / Duesenberg Festival http://www.acdfestival.org/

Did Someone Say Rallycross?! How many of you have dreamed of competing in a Rallycross? Well, that dream could possibly become a reality for Indy Region SCCA. One of our new Solo sites, Midwest Sports Complex has 20 acres of former golf course and asked us during negotiations if we ever hold any events on dirt? Our answer: we could.

Those of you who would be interested in Rallycross, here’s your opportunity make a Rallycross program a reality. We need individuals to step up and form an exploratory committee. Your challenge would be to form a Rallycross program. You would be building this program from the ground up with the support of the Solo Committee.

Interested parties contact me Dave Dusterberg at: ddusterberg@indy.rr.com
