VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
Ferrari Club National Rally
Track Day Super Sprint
A
very good friend of our club at
MSCA Super Sprints at Mallala is
Ian Crouch, an Alfa Club member,
drives an Alfa Spyder and Porsche Box-
ter, Ian is also a committee member of
the SA Ferrari Club and is organising
their National Rally to be held in Ade-
laide during the week of 15th to 20th
October.
On the Wednesday 17th they are con-
ducting a Track Day Super Sprint For-
mat at The Bend Motorsport Park
Tailem Bend on the West Circuit (that
we used for the MG Challenge) and Ian
has approached us and other MSCA
clubs me to see if there would be any of
our members who would be prepared to
joint other flag marshals for the day.
He realises that many of our club mem-
bers carry out these roles at Mallala
Super Sprints and are therefore experi-
enced in the task, ( being mid week
SAMROA flag marshals are not readily
available ) and experienced volunteers
are what he needs.
The West Circuit has 12 flag points plus
the starter, of which only 9 would need
to be manned, so while it is practical to
have two people at each location he
needs at least one experienced flag
marshal in each point.
Ian had offered to pay our members for
their assistance, however I advised him
that this presents a precedent that
could jeopardise seeking volunteers in
the future, he has therefore offered to
donate money to the clubs that supply
the volunteers, which I consider would
be more appropriate.
Ian would see that volunteers would be
well fed and looked after.
If you are prepared to help Ian please
contact him at , [email protected]
or 0419 806 177
I have indicated my help as has Berry
Treffers so it would be practical to meet
somewhere, perhaps the clubrooms,
and share the rides.
Ian estimates 50 or so Ferrari’s would
be competing
