[Fot] This is how we are going to handle getting everybody in the right class!

[yellow04 at tr4racer.com]

I'm back on home turf after 9 days abroad, full steam ahead on planning!

I've gone back and forth with Ted Michalos, VARAC's Race Director, Ted 
is the guy managing the Classing issue. Here is how we are going to make 
sure everybody is as close as possible to where they need to be, and 
make Ted's (and my) life easier!

Everybody who has not run Mosport for some time is required to run the 
test day. I believe Bill Babcock's comment cements the rationale behind 
that! Racers will want to find someone to put a stopwatch on one of 
their later sessions on Thursday, or if you use an in-car lap timer, 
perfect! Another scenario is run your in-car camera and put a stopwatch 
on the playback. Once you have experienced the track and have some lap 
times, find me in the paddock. If you still have questions, I am happy 
to talk them through with you. I can help you decide what group you 
should start in. I will collect everyone's request for a group change 
and present them all at once to Ted. I will mark up a spreadsheet and my 
intention is to get it into Ted's hands no more than one hour after the 
track goes quiet on Thursday.

Practice and qualifying will take place on Friday. As you figure out how 
to find more time on track, hopefully you will bust out of your bracket. 
That is a good thing! If you want/need to move groups, you will need to 
find Ted and request to be changed.

Ted will be broadcasting some further instructions through 
MotorsportsReg shortly, they should jive for the most part with my 
instructions here.

Stay tuned, more to come.

I reached out to the Race Director, we will not have the benefit of
timing and scoring on Thursday. I suggest people prepare to have your
crew put a stopwatch on you during your test day laps, find out where
your comfort zone is, and on Thursday after the track goes quiet we can
figure out where you will fit in best.

I will say it again, I think several of us were quite conservative while
chosing their run group!
