ASNW President and VP Stepping Down
Back in 2006 I went and ran my Dinan E30
Turbo at my first ASNW Auto Cross event
which was held at the Newport Cinema's
parking lot. I spent a grand total of
9.5 hours in the sun while only getting 3
40-second, 1st gear only runs. What a
waste of time and total disappointment that
was for me as a novice.
2008 rolls around and
Logr and Mikey V have now taken over control
of the club. The difference in
leadership and the club is staggering
comparing from my first 2006 experience.
Immediately, 6-8 runs every event was the
normal and combine that with shorter worker
days and better, longer courses you get a
well run Auto Cross Club, probably the best
in the Pacific Northwest if not the country.
Logr and Mikey V have
decided to take a break (well deserved) from
leading AutoSports Northwest in 2012.
I cannot thank them enough for all that they
have done for ASNW, nwBMWclub and all of the
area racers. If you are interested in
leading ASNW, please click on the link above
for the ASNW Election information.
Also you will want to attend the ASNW
Banquet on November 11th as well.

Winter FastKart in Spokane
The club will be organizing some
FastKart get togethers over the winter so
keep an eye out on the
Forums for dates and times. There
will be no set schedule so hopefully
everyone will be able to come out at least
once and have some fun banging other
people's cars.

you will notice that a good number of our

Valley. If you are planning on

Final Note
A BIG thank you to Mike "Logr" Gregg and
Mikey V from ASNW for all their work over
the past 4 years rebuilding ASNW to what it
is now. A vacation is much deserved
for the both of you.
