Firstly, we would like to thank SCCA for both the spirit in which our concerns have been addressed and also the opportunity to meet all together here at the Runoffs.
Everyone in this meeting should know that from the moment our concerns were expressed to Dennis Dean, he, as SCCA, has encouraged the GT1 driver owners to express their opinions to SCCA.
Several of us in CenDiv felt that we, as GT1 owner/drivers, SCCA members, and business people, would be best served if we had an organized database reflecting the opinions of the actual participants in GT1.
We have received the highest number of responses to the survey we mailed of any business mailing survey I have ever seen. We mailed the survey to approximately 135 GT1 drivers who have earned points this year. Presently the database that Bob Kasik will present represents over 70 surveys mid 16 letters, which were sent to me. We have prepared hard copies for you SCCA to keep.
As GT1 drivers we need to decide who our spokesperson on the GT Summit Advisory Board should be as SCCA has offered us a seat on this board. We would suggest that the Runoffs drivers decide who that spokesperson should be and an alternative.
We would also like to add that the GTIDA will continue to address issues arid to communicate this information thru tile proper SCCA channels. We would like to ask SCCA if we could have a GT1 "chat room" as part of the SCCA main web site. If not we will establish a GTIDA web site so that all of our issues can be discussed and properly channeled to SCCA.
In closing, we would like to say that we are proud to be members of SCCA, and appreciate the opportunity to utilize the existing communication channels in a professional manner as one total group of motorsport enthusiasts.
Thank you,
'GT 1 Driver's Association"
