First I want to say I appreciate KCR and the SCCA. I received my 5 year member pin recently and I’m extremely thankful for the organization and all of the people that have made an impact on me and my family through kindness and support over the years, in addition to all of the fun we have with cars.
On that note, the Unnaturally Aspirated Event went really well. Thank you to everyone that made it possible, thank you to the RAC for hosting a great T&T so we could showcase KCR and do ride-alongs. Thank you to KCR in general for allowing the use of MSR to list our poker run and car show, and thank you to Lisa for coming out and bringing more additions to the poker run winnings and helping greatly with waivers and ticketing coordination at the event.
We had a smaller turnout at the car show than we’ve had in past years but still a fun morning portion with the fire department bringing trucks out and RPD showing up too. The poker run was a huge success. All of the reports from the entries and businesses after the fact were massively positive. Businesses said they would love to participate again, and I believe we offered a very unique event. We did a large number of RallyCross rides after the poker run group rolled in and I have received multiple messages since then, of folks asking about what car they should pick up to come out and join the club on course.
It was a challenging time in the season to try and have an event, especially with all of the location changes and scheduling conflicts, but it was extremely successful and sets UA up well for 2022, hopefully at I-70 Motorsport Park.
Approx $850 + $550 = $1400
Last event Dec 5 at thunder valley sand drags
