HI all,

The Giants' Despair entries have been mailed. The event entries were limited to an entrant that has run the Giants’ in either 2004 or 2005. Also novice entrants that will be racing 2 of the 3 events before Giants’ qualified to receive an entry. These are the 2 ways to receive an entry but that doesn’t mean you’re in. This event like all of ours will be the first 100 entries are firm entries. Entries must be paid in full to be considered a firm entry. Send in entry with check ASAP! This was planned to be the first mailing and a second mailing will follow if all 100 slots aren’t filled (not likely to happen). There were 109 entries sent out, this didn’t include all novice drivers. Novice drivers please contact me if you didn’t receive an entry and plan on running 2 of the 3 events prior to Giants’.

It is possible that you may not have received an entry because of being a Novice driver, moved from address I had, entry destroyed in mailing, my list not being correct, or other reasons. Please email me if you didn’t receive one and you qualify.

Below is copy of a portion of the 2006 Giants Event Sups. These are the major changes made for this event only, please read in full.

****READ IN FULL****
This event is scheduled as a three-day event; all cars will compete Saturday and Sunday. A driver unable to compete on either day
forfeits all timed runs offered for that day. A driver showing up for registration and tech inspection after timed runs have started

un-timed runs up the hill. Anyone found using any type of timing device including data Acquisition will forefit all times on Saturday.

HI all,

Sue I got yours and Dave's. Right now I'm taking entries for 3 events at once and wouldn't have the time to confirm every entry sent to me. The biggest problem would be that most aren't putting an email address down. Email would be the easiest to send otherwise I would have to call everyone else to confirm.

The http://www.myautoevents.com registration is working very well, but I do have the few that either won't put it on or can't because they have no internet or something. I send an email (if given) to people that haven't registered online to do so. I have added quite a few myself. I don't have Giants' online yet till after the first mailing or 100 entries. Then I may ask people to register online just because it makes it easier and much less time consuming to download names/classes ect to the timing program.

Thanks!
