Another NERR season is in the books as Jerry Daigle and 1010 Raceway in Bristol, CT, hosted a GT Coupe "Fun Race" and the NERR Annual Awards Banquet

Thanks for this fine report, Dave!

 

Many thanks to you and Woody for providing the Sterno that keeps the

NERR flame burning brightly.  We have something really good going on here.

 

Thanks Dave Gesner for getting our banquet meal together.  Great stuff!

His future as a designer chef is assured.

 

A truly great year.  My thanks for the fine times with all of our racers.  I feel like

we are doing right by the hobby, and making a safe place for men with limited

social skills to interact (somewhat).

 

All the best to all of you.  And please know that NERR extends its welcome to Retro racers

from across the country, and around the globe.  Gonna be a good time!

Jon,

Are you possibly on the Mobile skin or Tapatalk?

 

Those versions may not show everything.

 

Do you see my screenshot below with "Rob Hayes" and "Mike Katz" circled in red?

 

The point of the name is if your username isn't your name, we need to know who the person is if they start acting up.

 

And believe me, we use to have quite a bit of acting up on here.

 

We had a guy from Southern California who changed his username more often then I change my underwear. Lol

Ah. Im guessing maybe because Im on an iPhone original SE? I think its been around since my first go round of racing 🤣. I dont see any of that. I also dont see anywhere to add it to my profile. My apologies to everyone.

If an admin can add my name, feel free. Jon Aubin. I can absolutely promise Im way too busy and have no interest in creating multiple accounts or causing anyone issues lol.
