A preliminary schedule for 2012 has been drafted, more on that in the next couple of days. Looks like another good year with events at tracks around the Northwest.

In the meantime, let’s celebrate 2011!

But we know you need some incentive so we’ve created the first ever PNSCA Race for Sponsors Program.  Here’s how it works:

For every $10 of sponsorships you bring in, you get $1 worth of credit toward entry fees.  For example, for every $600 in signed agreements (and/or checks without an agreement) you bring in, you get a race entry for free.  Even though this example is supporting sponsorships, this applies for all our sponsorship levels: day sponsors, associate sponsors, even series sponsors.  This even works for you.  If you do nothing but contribute $300 for yourself, you get $30 off a race.

And, as an added bonus, the person with the most sponsorship dollars also gets a race for free ($60 in entry fee credit), and a plaque at the banquet.  If there’s a tie, the winners split the entry credit.

All prizes have no cash value, they are good for entry fees only.  The contest is open until midnight the day taxes are due (April 18, 2011).  The maximum credits that can be applied in a single year is $300 (five races), unused credits carry over to the next year.  And if you’re wondering, no, the free entries won’t effect the payouts at the races.

All the materials you need to get sponsorships are at http://pnsca.com/sponsors/info.  If you need anything to help in your search for sponsors (such as the brochure in glossy printed form) send an email to sponsorship@pnsca.com.  We’re here to help.

Now go out there, get sponsors, and race for free.  If you get to the semis or better, it’s like getting free money!

The Pessemier’s home and shop is at 4905 – 128th Street E., Tacoma, WA 98446.  A Mapquest map is here.  Just take the Canyon Road exit off 512, and you’re a minute or two away.  You can get complete directions from your house by clicking on “get directions”, and entering your address in the “address” box on the left hand side of the Mapquest page.

Topics for discussion will be the 2011 schedule, the promotion activities we’ve been working on to encourage additional racer participation, sponsorship development, and any potential rule changes.

All PNSCA members are welcome to attend, please make plans to be there.  Look forward to seeing you then.

Beautiful Custom Trophies

Special thanks go out to Ed Hauter and Jeff Yoder who made the gorgeous custom trophies.  This year, Jeff used his amazing metal working skills to create the top three trophies in the form of scoops.  They are quite simply stunning.  And Ed worked many hours to fashion the many individual race trophies as well as the awards for the rest of the PNSCA top 10.  It’s so great that we have such talented members who can create these keepsakes.

Bob Woodruff, 2010 Champion and Ed Hauter, PNSCA President

Our season champion, in another nail-biting contest that came down to the last weekend of the year, is Bob Woodruff.  Bob sealed his third consecutive PNSCA championship and his fourth in the last five years.  And as usual, Bob gave a wonderful heartfelt acceptance speech punctuated by the presentation of his beautiful champion’s jacket, a gift from his fiance Connie.  Congrats to Bob and Connie on another incredible year.

Finishing in second was PNSCA President, Ed Hauter.  Ed was in contention for the series championship up to the last weekend of the year, and despite a valiant effort in the last two races, couldn’t just quite take the stripe.  This is Ed’s second consecutive top three finish.

Rick Dearinger Collects for Third from Ed Hauter, with Connie Schmoll in the Background

Rick Dearinger also collected another top three finish and a beautiful third place trophy for his mantel.  Perhaps most amazing was the fact that Rick missed the first four races of the year and still managed to finish the year in third.  This performance shows what a formidable competitor Rick always is.

Dale Hrenko Checks Out the Hardware

This year’s Rookie of the Year was also named, and it was no contest.  Dale Hrenko had a wonderful first year in a long, skinny car finishing in sixth place in the PNSCA championship.  Dale won in Bremerton in August and made the semi-finals two other times during the year.  Dale is a tough competitor and this is surely just the beginning for his PNSCA career.

Thanks again to everyone who made the banquet such a success.  And special thanks to Pete and the folks at Power Punch for their continuing series support.  Look forward to another great year of racing in 2011.

Where else can you spend a lousy $10 and get a meal and talk drag racing?  Your $10.00 buys a choice of a 12oz filet or a half a BBQ chicken with baked potato or rice pilaf.  So get off your duff and call Steve Iverson at 360 921-1042 and let him know you’re coming.

The event will be held Saturday, November 13th at Howard Johnson’s house in Graham, Washington.  The PNSCA business meeting will be at 3:00, social time begins at 5:00, with dinner and awards beginning at 6:00.  Howard has room for your RV if you want to make a night of it.

Many more details are to follow, but please mark this date on your calendar and plan to be there.

Robeck Custom Fabrication thanks the PNSCA for allowing us to sponsor this PNSCA event.  For those of you who aren’t already familiar with RCF, we are an Oregon based company that is in business specifically to serve drag racers.  RCF can serve your needs in three areas: (1) fabrication – from building new one-off cars to performing minor updates; (2) building and rebuilding transmissions; and (3) sales of parts at prices even Jegs can’t touch.  RCF is an authorized distributor of a number of product lines, including Strange; Transmission Specialties; Reid Racing; Mark Williams; and many others.  We ask for the opportunity to earn your business; please see Mike Robeck for more information and to receive an RCF brochure.  RCF commits to the PNSCA that if the PNSCA members bring business RCF’s way, RCF will continue to sponsor the PNSCA; something else you don’t get through Jegs or Summit!

The PNSCA thanks RCF for their dedication to Super Comp racing in the Pacific Northwest!

Power Punch Performance Lubricants

PNSCA is proud to announce that Power Punch Performance Lubricates has returned as our Series Title Sponsor.  We couldn’t be happier to have them on board for another year, and we encourage all PNSCA racers to try Power Punch lubricates and spread the word to their friends.

Thanks again to Pete and the Power Punch team for their continued commitment to Super Comp racing in the Northwest.  And a huge thank you to Chuck Linne for making this happen.  We look forward to a great Power Punch Super Comp Series for 2010!
