SNYR meeting held at The Maine Scoop Ice Cream shop:

It was announced that all our 2021 autocross events at the Binghamton University

site have been canceled due to Binghamton University’s new policy;

They are not allowing any off campus events this summer due to Covid.

RE Michelle DiGiacomo has reached out to SUNY Broome Community College

to purpose running our events at their campus.

A written proposal was submitted, and will be voted on by the SUNY Broome board this week.

The representative was optimistic about our proposal, so our fingers are crossed.

Stay tuned here for updates as soon as they become available.

(And the ice cream was delicious, and the rain held off!)

Thank you to those who attended, it was great seeing everyone again.

Hello Racers, our mall event is postponed. We will be trying to get a date in october.

This means our next event is with the FLR SCCA at the Seneca Army Depot.

  Looking forward to seeing everyone again.

The fourth scheduled event (really our third due to an event cancellation) at SUNY was completed. Results are posted in the Season Standings link.

PAX was a close race between Tavis in his Focus, Roderick in the BMW and Brian in the MX-5 Brian was only 0.045 Seconds behind Roderick, which was 0.28 sec out of First (Travis)

Mike in the monster Miata retains his FTD title again this event, with his closest competitor being his Dad, which was 0.350 seconds behind.

We saw a few drivers return for this event, Daryl and Steve, with Daryl driving his Wife's car instead of his new Charger.

We are still working the September event scheduled at the Mall, but things do not look good at this time. Please watch the website and facebook page for updates.

Assistant RE: John

The second SUNY event saw Peter L, Roderick Y, and Brian B battle for top PAX position, with Roderick winning by 0.027 seconds quicker than Peter, and 0.335 faster than Brian

Mike D continued his FTD winnings by beating his closest competitor (his Dad) by 0.817

We welcome all the new drivers and hope you continue to join us at future events

As for my condition, I suffered a lawn mowing accident, which resulted in surgical tendon repair in my left knee. I am not allowed to bend my left leg for the next 4 weeks

Please keep an eye on this website as we try to find a location for a July event

Assistant RE: John

Our first hosted event was held on 9 June. Great weather, and better racing.

We had to move one gate during the second session due to parking lot ripping up. Originally we planned on counting each session seperately, but after reviewing all the times we made a decision to treat second session in with the first

Updated results are in the season standings link on the left.

Gary D with only 2 runs still made top 3 in FTD, He must be talented. Either he or his Son (Mike) kept blowing off intercooler pipe, just stop pushing the gas pedal so hard.

Roderick walked away in the street class, clearing the field by over a second.

Thank You for all the people that helped setup and tear down at the end of day. With out your help these events would not happen.

Next event is 30 June at same location

Assistant RE: John

We had a great day at "The Shops". Close races across the board. Mike D sqeeked out FTD on his last run, the top 4 finishers were within 0.219 seconds of each other.

Peter L captured PAX in his Fiesta, and got to drive the most cars that day. Glenn W showed us all how to win, by being first in the Modified/Prep super group.

Look out for new comer Caleb I in his Audi A4, breaking into top 10 of  PAX in his first season, now you just need to teach your Dad how to drive :)

We look forward to seeing you all at the 12 August event at SUNY
