    Convention Information Available Now Online!

    The Driveline will soon be in the mail with all of the 2010 Convention Information, but it is now available here at the Convention Web Pages.

    Convention, Judging and Road Tour Registration Forms are also linked from the Convention Pages.

    Remember you must not mail your Registration Forms in before February 1, 2010.

    The pages are pretty complete, but they will be updated with any changes that come along so you may want to check back from time to time.

    2010 NCRS Convention, Concord, NC.

    One change that has been made and is reflected on the Convention page is:

    The Judging field has been changed to the zMAX Drag Strip just a short way from the Convention Hotels. The Board of Directors did a site visit during the Board Meeting (March 20) and was very impressed with the facility. The zMAX Dragway is the only four-lane, all-concrete drag strip in the world; it seats 30,000 spectators; covers 46.5 acres and features a 34,000 square-foot starting line tower. It is not

      Neat little trick that John did, he made the forms fillable on your computer, just fill in the appropiate boxes, and print it out. Ready to mail at that point. Thanks John

        I'm not sure if it's me or the computer but when I try and enter a dollar valve in any of the activity fields nothing happens. The Judging app. seems to be working fine.

          Phillip,

          I am not certain that I understand your comment but all of the forms are setup to enter the amounts for you when you select the event. If you are entering events and select two tickets to the event the form fills in the total for you. That helps prevent typos. The form also does the math.

          If that is not the case on a particular form I need to know which form. Judging, Registration, Road Tour or Youth, and which activity?

          Hope that answers your question.

            John,

            Thanks for the speedy response. I had the issue when I would enter 2 people for the 'Award Banquet' on the Registration form. The line cost and total cost would not populate.

            However, I was doing this from my laptop and I just tried it on my desktop PC and it works fine....Sounds like it might be a Acrobat issue on the laptop.

            thanks again!
            Philip

              Nice job, John!

              A reminder to folks that, in general, the newer the version of Adobe Reader, the better it handles complex documents like forms. As of January 25th, the current version is 9.3, available at:

              Download free Adobe Acrobat Reader software for your Windows, Mac OS and Android devices to view, print, and comment on PDF documents.

                Another great alternative to Adobe Reader is Foxit Reader. http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/

                Foxit loads lightning fast compared to Adobe. Much less of a resource hog than Adobe Reader. I have used it myself for the last 7 or 8 months and I like it.

                      Does anyone know when confirmations for the convention will be sent? in other words, when do we know if our car is in or not?

                            NOPE!

                            as I understand it, the Nation al Judging Chairman needs to ensure validity of every application before notifications are sent out - so, believe that is taking place now?

                              The judging for the NCRS National Convention will now be at the zMAX Dragway next to the Charlotte Motor Speedway. NCRS was bumped by the Legends Million Car race to be held July 15-17 which will have a $1 million purse.

                              I have some questions:

                              Will the judging be indoors, or outdoors? If outdoors, is it on blacktop?
                              Will there still be an opportunity for 'track laps' at Lowe's (or whatever it's called now)?

                              And a big Thank-You to John Pirkle. This can't be easy to deal with.

                              Dave , good questions.

                              also, how far away is it from the speedway ?
