let me preface this as it is not a thread to start a bitch session, but how to figure out how to increase the car count. I do not know where the best place to to post this so if you move thread it is fine by me.
As you know the BPG hosted a Buick event this past weekend and to be honest it was disappointing car count for these classes and I as head of the BPG I am wondering what can be done to increase the car count. Let me first stress that a lax in Safety requirements for the cars is not going to happen. I know we paid out over 13K in cash and Gift Certificates from various donors. The BPG paid out even though there was not a full car count in each class.(min 8 cars). I know there was an issue with a TSM car wanting to Run TSO but that is not the BPG's call.
I aka the BPG are looking to increase the car count for these classes...Now I know that the economy plays a major part but for the past years it seems there has not been a full field.
Are the rules too restrictive...can you combine TSO and TSM or post it publicly that any TSM car can run with TSO..to make a full field...
Again just asking how the BPG can increase the car count and maybe roll it over to the other events....I know with talking to those that attended the past 2 events we had a great car count...even if you take away the V8 cars.
please post constructive input as all the Clubs and Events can benefit.
