Welcome Jason. Thanks to all providing info. Please do not draw conclusions as to how PHA will address the new Time Trial Rules. PHA has not and will not ignore the new TT rules. A PHA committee is currently analyzing the new rules. The objective of the committee is edit our supplementary rules to m...

All PHA events are sanctioned and insured by SCCA!!!! Of course PHA is not recognized by SCCA. PHA develops the schedule of events and establishes the rules that pertain to class champions. PHA does not have a problem with "market share" We had good numbers of entrants during the recent re...

As PHA president, I had no prior knowledge of the development of the new time trial rules. No one in my region or PHA was aware of these impending changes in the time trial rules.

Is anyone planning on bringing videos (with computer) to the Banquet?
I do not want to pay for a screen if it is not needed.

Please, before making any decisions, wait until after the PHA meeting on November 2. I assure you we will address this issue head-on. I have made a lot of phone calls to properly inform myself as to the possible avenues to solve this problem.

Rich is correct. You can win more than one class championships. This is not a change of rules; it is based on the original intent of the mileage and Lloyd Geib awards.
Tom Knorr, PHA President

For this season, the solution to this situation should relate to the original intent of these awards by the originators. After talking to both originators, both awards will be determined by the total miles/total points accumulated by a driver in one car in one class. All officers concur with this de...

Tech sheets will also change... all entrants will be required to check all safety items prior to the event a...
