Off set Keyways
The Keyway rule will be in affect for our first Club Race.
Click here for tips and a picture to help you install your new keyway.
Also you can use the new GX120 Tier engine parts to interchange with the
older engines.
You can also use the new GX160 Tier engine parts to interchange with the
older engines.
If you need help installing a new keyway or flywheel we will have the Tech
guys at the track on Saturday February 2. We will do this towards the end
part of the afternoon session of Novice training so that we can make sure
our new Novices are legal.
Please note that if you do not have a new keyway in for the first race there
will be a 30 day DQ.

HELMENT WARNING
All,
I put out a while back about fit testing helmets as per the snell
standards. Please emphasize this to ALL club members at your next daily
show.
We had another helmet come off recently resulting in relatively minor
injuries (compared to what it could've been)....6 staples on side of head
from the head hitting the roll bar as the car flipped. This is the 3rd
helmet that I know of that came off so far this year...luckily, the first 2
did not result in injury.
For your reference:
The Snell Foundation recommends the simple, straightforward procedure
recommended to consumers by most helmet manufacturers:
Position the helmet on your head so that it sits low on your forehead; if
you can't see the edge of the brim at the extreme upper range of your
vision, the helmet is probably out of place. Adjust the retention system
so that when in use, it will hold the helmet firmly in place. This
positioning and adjusting should be repeated to obtain the very best result
possible. The procedure initially may be time consuming. Take the time.
Try to remove the helmet without undoing the retention system closures. If
the helmet comes off or shifts over your eyes, readjust and try again. If
no adjustment seems to work, this helmet is not for you; try another.
This procedure is also the basis of the test for helmet stability described
in this Standard. This test performs the same steps but uses standard
headforms. However, you must still perform this procedure for yourself
when buying a helmet and every time you wear a helmet. Only in this way
will you be able to make all the proper adjustments to get the best fit
possible. Furthermore, your test on your own head will be an improvement
on ours; you will determine whether the helmet is appropriate for you
personally.
Our drivers are the greatest asset to any race team...let's keep them safe!
