Re: BURKE 1 HILLCLIMB 2014

Just posted results to the mailing list. Steve will pick them up from there and post to the official spot.
But while I was doing this I noticed something. Sherm as event chair should be congratulated. On Saturday we of course shutdown at 2:30 for the wedding to use the hill. We still started 195 cars that day. That is only 7 cars less that the all time record of 202 at Burke in 2003. So we stopped at 2:30 and got in nearly a record number of cars up the hill. Pretty impressive.
Of course we also need to thank Karen at control (I wouldn't be surprised if she was also doing control for the 2003 record.) She knows how to keep things moving. And all the workers who did their jobs quickly and efficiently. Drivers keeping things on road of course is also a very big deal.
