I'm still confused at someone taking a fixed number of spots at a track day for free doesn't cost anything.

60x200 = 12000
59x200 = 11800

Looks like one less paying participant = 200 less dollars.

Also, the $5 donation applied to paying memberships. Approx 100 of our memberships were from Asheville and provided free of charge.

S2Ki has received about $1200 from S2KCA. You received a payment at the end of the accounting period last year and one after the $5 was terminated. Let's now do the math.

330 members - 100 free members = 230 paying members * $5 = $1150. Pretty close to the $1200 I am guessing that you have from the S2KCA.

And true to estimates - the S2KCA attracts about 10% of the population.

Once the population increases to all the S2000's in the country I think my % will hold true again.

 

Consider it a test, if you will. I am not asking for anyone to close a thread...merely for someone to step in and give guidance.

It will require the leaders on both sides to step up to the plate and practice what they preach...and the rest of us to do the same.

Sound fair?

 

Perfectly fair

You should also really stop with all the personal attacks. It doesn't look good.

Noone (S2KCA management possibly withstanding) who was in attendance at LS would have had a problem with 61 cars participating instead of 60. Considering how much publicity this site has given S2KCA for nothing, it would seem to me to be a no brainer to comp the man. How would you have had the 60 people show up who did without this site?

You fail to mention that after the economics of the situation was put on the table for C3 that Greg and I offered him the "61st" spot on the track - which he turned down.

You also are missing the point - C3 expected this and demanded it. He never asked for it - he demanded it. And then in retaliation threatened to start charging the S2KCA for everything he had done for us - I think he quoted us at about $200/month.

 

Meat,

I didn't fail to mention it. Neither did Cthree; it's in his post. The distinction is that he shouldn't have had to even have a discussion with you about it.

The S2KCA didn't even know he wanted to attend the event. I believe at some point prior to the event that even said that he wasn't going to attend it.

 

It would have been professional courtesy to give cthree free track time since most people would have heard of the event from s2ki.com. From what I understand, instructors got free track time, so why couldn't you extend that to cthree...
