¢ Visitors' Reports

¢ Vintage Update -- Goronsky
LS event was a great weekend with 241 entries. Great weather, financial success. Formal report to be given at Jan. meeting. There were 76 more entries than in 2004 with lots of last minute entries. Good support from RMV, BMW, NW, and SFR. Still want a spring date--to be discussed at Dec. meeting. Bill Godwin has agreed to become the Vintage Chief; will work with Goronsky in 2006 and then take over in 2007.

¢ Solo II Update -- Nemy
Sacramento banquet had a good turn out; over 100 attendees. Good number of entries throughout the year. No interest in a Drifting School. Fresno has had their last event for the year. Bay Area is moving along on T & S equipment purchase plan. Putting another site committee together since the current sites are going away in the future.

¢ Drifting Update -- Nemy
Met with No. Cal. Drifting Academy. Will be in Reno on Sat. for NorPac then have a TH event on Sun.

¢ Rally Update -- Nemy
Great success at Altamont. Had to cut off entries at 92. Solo II helped a lot. Grantz stated that two new safety stewards have been trained to make up for recent loss of two stewards.

¢ Concours Update -- Gordy
Had four events this year; very happy with productivity. Steve
Miller, Chief of Concours, is preparing a document to show donations. Event in Sacramento had over $500,000 donation to Shriners Hospital. Concours chapters wish to maintain ties with SCCA (judges are all SCCA trained) but still remain autonomous.

¢ Competition Director Update -- Archer
2006 preliminary schedule distributed to BoD and will be given out at Annual Meeting. Two dates were corrected on the schedule which actually got out to public while some dates were still in flux. Certain dates were only finalized this past week and the second half of LS will not be confirmed until after the first of the year. Tried to avoid overlap with Rose Cup (6/11-12), however, SFR did not want to give up a June Regional event. Gordy to follow up with OR Region to explain what happened. Reno wants to do the Double National again; SFR BoD wants to continue a joint event and suggests same financialstructure. Gordy to follow up with Dave Deborde. Allen suggests combining a Regional/Vintage at Fernley in conjunction with Reno Region. To be explored in future. 2006 Supp Regs could not be worked on until we get further information from National, especially concerning the SM rules. BoD to give any suggestions to Grantz; she will put together all changes she has to date and will distribute after the Thanksgiving weekend. Discussion scheduled for Dec. BoD meeting. 2006 Spec Miata Challenge on hold until we know about sponsorship. We're not sure running SMC with Pro Events (ALMS) is in the best interest of the drivers (due to limited paddock space) or the Region financially. A1GP has asked if we wish to run SMC at LS; Gordy to follow up with costs, etc.

¢ National BoD Update -- Pitts via Gordy
Gordy elected to National BoD as Area 9 Director. First meeting is Dec. 8 in Topeka. Gordy ran as a region's rights candidate and plans to keep SFR BoD apprised of what is happening. He is the only new person to the BoD. Mitch Wright will be leaving his Pro SCCA position Jan. 1 and will be replaced by Garrett Mudd. Smith states he will put together an analysis of the impact of Enterprises and Pro on SCCA Inc. Pitts is in Topeka this weekend and reports that the selection committee has received several good resumes for SCCA President and will start interviews Dec. 1. Gordy will push for an Operations person.

¢ Thunderhill Report -- Smith
Properties BoD meeting held last night. TH has met the financial goals for the year. A decision will be made on a dividend to the parent BoD at Jan. meeting. Repaving and asset replacement funds are on track. Garages and canopy are completed. Office replacement is on hold. Working on plans for another set of showers and bathrooms, probably located at the North end of the paddock. Will need to focus on sewage management. Smith will remain as President of Properties until the Jan. Properties meeting.

¢ Oil Recycling Champions -- Nosler
Meeting set with CIWMB for the first week of Dec. to discuss the audit and SFR response.

¢ Region Administrators Report -- Grantz
October was very busy with processing five races as well as preparation of ballot packets and mailing. Banquet preparations and verifying driver
points for driver awards also time consuming. Lot of work being done on NorPac. Drivers School packets are ready, but there has been very little interest to date. Needs publicity. Smith/Grantz will be working on budget for Dec.
BoD meeting.

¢ Old Business

¢ 2006 NorPac Convention -- Nosler
Still looking for more financial support; could have a $3000 shortfall. Workshops are on track. NorPac committee wants Barb Lundquist
presentations, so she will conduct four sessions.

¢ Auto Show Update -- Nemy
Opens today to the public; attended the VIP session last night. Got all the DVDs and interest forms from National. Reminder that forms need to go back to Grantz. Allen says they will ID those with a real interest in SCCA, not just freebies. Barry Chafin says we're under budget. Needed a large TV to show the DVDs and Moscone wanted $2500 to rent one. Chafin purchased a 62� out of the box rear projection TV and DVD/VCR for $1200. Don't know what to do with TV after the show. BoD suggests that it be donated to NorPac silent auction. BoD decided to take bids from SCCA Auto Show volunteers instead of trying to transport the TV to Reno. Found an auto show sponsor (Modacar Auto Accessories) who donated $1300 for the exhibit.

¢ Trophies Spec Update -- All
To be developed during off season.

¢ Annual Banquet -- Tatum
Ready to go with lots of pictures. BoD dress rehearsal to be held immediately after the Annual Meeting. Michele Hemus will keep the program on schedule; Allen will run the AV equipment.

¢ Chiefs' Resignations to BoD -- All
Gordy had sent a letter to all Chiefs asking for their resignations so that the new RE and BoD could make appointments. While this was not done formally in the past, each year RE verifies who the new chiefs will be.

¢ Spring Seminar -- Tatum
Drivers have expressed an interest in another seminar like Haney's last year. Art Muncheryan has suggested Mark Ortiz, a chassis guy with a good resume, as a potential speaker. Cost would be less than $2000 and Muncheryan is willing to promote. BoD sees this as something for the drivers and is interested in having another seminar.

¢ Drivers School -- Nosler
This year there will be three full days of track time in order to meet the six hour time requirement set by the GCR for drivers schools. Plan is to have one ground school in the Bay Area, one in Sacramento, and one at TH on Thurs. night. Students would have to attend one ground school prior to the the driving portion of the school. Office needs dates of these schools defined no later than Jan. 1. Operations for the Driving School is being led by Kevin Rogers, Michele Hemus, and Peter Nosler. Jon Becker will be the Chief Driver Instructor and the Group Leaders will be Bruce Seviere, Scott Rubin, and Ron Chuck. Nosler is working with the Tech crew on getting cars teched Fri. AM prior to going on course. Hamm says that perhaps there can be a Travel Tech conducted at the All Club Training Day. One person has expressed an interest in the Arken Scholarship which provides tuition. In the past there have been two RDC scholarships which includes tuition plus car, crew, tires, and gas. Motion (Allen/Tatum): To waive the tuition for two RDC scholarships. Passed--Unanimous.

Jeff Olinger, Paddock Marshal and SCRAMP Director, can provide space for installation of a permanent repeater and antenna. Paul Einhorn has furnished a bid of $2087. Motion (Nosler/McClellan): To proceed with purchase of permanent repeater and antenna for LS.
Passed--Unanimous.
