[Nobbc] CSRG Racing Oct 1-3

[Tim Thresh]

The 2nd is my best shot with B&B business at its peak for Crush time.

Note that this description of the event is the only reference I have found 
to the "special arrangements" for a "vintage vehicles" paddock area and 
special admission price.  If Mike G organizes another zone for us we will 
likely be all alone and a distance away. This event is much smaller than 
Wine Country Classic but has the same "live paddock" feel and similar 
racing. It is operated by CSRG who make their own rules on ticket prices 
etc.

I suggest we pick  10/2 and join whoever shows on that day. NOBBC members to 
rendezvous 30 minutes before the "track drive" time. We can then picnic 
together, do a photo-call and have club time?
