Gingerman Spridget Country Men,


We are at 15 Spridgets and Counting, which should exceed our greatest turn out for Gingerman to date.  Long-term forecast looks good as well.  We will have some great 60th Austin Healey Sprite Anniversary Race items for sale.  The latest, with pic attached is provided by Jeff Carloss a really cool patch that you can sew on to your favorite item for $5.  Don Kelly will be providing base ball hats and tee shirts too!


I look forward to seeing everyone for a great weekend along with Thursday and Friday assistance at Driver School for those that can attend.


Stan

Smidgeteers!



I am looking forward to seeing everyone in a couple of weeks at the Gingerman May 5-6, 2018 Vintage Race Weekend!
I will be staking out a Spridget Paddock area on Thursday night so weall have a place to gather for mechanical, spiritual and eating support.  Those that can assist our Spridget Student Drivers on Friday would be greatly appreciated.  Please bring enough brats and other dishes foryou and your crew plus 20% for other friends that support our racing.  I will have a grill, plates, plasticware andnapkins for our group lunch Saturday and Sunday.  It is always appreciated when we have othersthat can assist with grilling brats. Please boil your brats so we can serve more quickly with less grease fires.  Friday night we will open the portable CapeOf Good Hope Pub in honor of Donald and Geof Healey along with others that wewill be toasting and concluding with God Save the Queen.   We have much to discuss in this 60thSpridget Reunion year with the ELVF September 14-16, 2018 event for both street and raceSpridgets.  Don Kelly will have some hatsand tee shirts honoring the 60th and I hope to have an example of MechanicOveralls and Vest with BMC patch and 60th patch.  Jeff Carloss is working on a 60thPoster as well!
At last count we had 15 Spridgets registered and I knowthere were several others considering. This would be our second largest (2 more and we set a record!) attendance at Gingerman.  We are lucky again this year to have our ownexclusive race on Sunday so don’t forget to register.
 
I want to remind everyone of our Vintage Sports Car Valuesand have listed what we have identified as important Vintage Racing Values and is part our criteria for our “Jim Donato Most Respected Driver Award”:
Criteria: A driver that exemplifies the meaning of a VintageSports Car Driver includes:
Predictable(Stays on racing line and points racers by when being passed or whenpassing.  Makes sure that over takingdriver knows they are about to be passed and allows room and good judgment),
Confident &Observant (Uses mirrors and is aware of others racing near)
Respectful(Confirms that their race car is mechanically sound and will not cause othersto be injured from improper maintenance. Can sit down with other competitors and enjoy their company after anysession) 
Objective (open toother’s comments) and Drives Defensively (adjusts for conditions safelyregardless of other driver’s interaction).
