October 2003 Minutes

October 2003

First thing I’d like to pass on a Very Special Get Well to Barbara LoPiccolo wife of our very on Vito LoPiccolo. Barbara has been in the hospital for the last few weeks and we wish her a speedy recovery. Well the season is over and all the Champions have been crowned and everyone can take a few days to rest up from a busy year. ( YEH RIGHT!) I know that most everybody is already working on their cars for next season and are busy getting ready for all the banquets coming up.

I’d like to thank all of our MARFC membership tracks for once again allowing our members to come into their facilities to see the best racing around the country. Michigan has the most outstanding race tracks around. Once again on behalf of our members Thank You to all !!!

Remember the MARFC Annual Dinner Dance & Awards Banquet will be held on January 17, 2004. For ticket information please contact me at president@marfc.org. Get your tickets early for seating will be limited this year.

As Always Keep Racing!!

Cool and rainy weather but all went fine for our members who attended. Great show with all the cars on hand for the Glass City 200. Howard Kelly, Jr. was awarded our MARFC/Uniform Helmet Bag for his Championship in the Sportsman division using a barrowed car for the last few weeks. Very special thanks to Ron Drager, Roy Mott, Scott Schultz and Greg Riddle for rescheduling our fan club day on a big weekend show. Many thanks to all who lent a helping hand they were: Steve & Cory Russell, Laura & Jimmy Tucker, Larry & Sue Iacoboni, Fran Russo, Bob Free, Bill Palmer, Jeff Moroni & son.
