Barrett Junction Explained

Posted by Marcus Rietema on Monday, 19 March 2001, at 8:57 p.m.

Hello to everyone out there in cyberland.

It seems there has been a lot of confusion regarding the race scheduled for Barrett Junction March 24-25. I made an posting a few weeks ago stating that until the announcement of an Official 2001 IGSA schedule, we would not be holding the races announced on the tenative schedule released earlier. Many persons were confused by this. I thought this statement was clear and I apoligize to those who were confused and to those who did not read it.

Due to the chaos caused by Frank Waterhouse moving and a delay in getting the funding to properly stage the Barrett Junction event I felt it would be best to cancel the event. Unfortunately, Frank and I had a miscommunication and he thought the event was still going on as originally scheduled.

He phoned me this evening and told me that an event would still be going on this weekend and asked me for my help. I felt bad about the mixup and agreed to help him to stage the event this weekend.

Here are the details:
