2012 Burnout Calendar

Burn Out Calendar 2012

OK — I finally had a few hours to finish the last of the NSS wall calendars I’ll be doing until next October for the 2013 Calendar. The theme on this is smokey burnouts. I used the 13 best burnout photos I had from 2011. The below are some lo-res (so they display faster) examples of the page, but rest assure that the actual pages use high-resolution photos.

Race Team Web Sites

There is a new look and feel for the web sites of three cars currently running in Nostalgia Super Stock.

If you've not created a web site for your race team, you might considering doing so. While winning is the number one secret to attracting sponsors, a web site is number two, and a Media Kit is number three.

Many feel like it is beyond their pay grade to create a team web site — but it actually very simple, and requires no programming experience. Word Press is a free application that allows the would-be web master to have a blog on the front page, and a number of information pages linked in the NavBar. It will cost less than $10 a year to register your Domain name (IE: BigRedRam.com), and just a few bucks a month to host it on a web server. There are no other expenses. The secret is to find a web host that will automatically install Word Press for you.

I've created a step-by-step set of detailed instructions to create your own Word Press web site — from registering the name, to selecting the host server, to installing Word Press, to creating your custom "Look & Feel", to posting context, to Search Engine Optimization. If you've ever registered and posted to a forum — you're over-qualified to create your own web site. Click –> Word Press for Dummies

Four NSS Drivers on the List

Here are your nominations for the 2011 season. Please chose one and return them
to the NMCA for processing. Deadline for the final voting will be November 12th.

Rookie of the Year
For any racer that displayed exemplary performance
in their first full season of racing in a class.

Note: This is the most
difficult category to nominate because of individual interpretations of the word
rookie. Should a driver who has bracket raced for 20-years be considered a
rookie if this is his first season racing with NMCA? If a driver has been
successful in one class and elects to run another class for a full season be
considered a rookie as well? Or, should a person who has never raced more than a
few test and tunes be the only type of racer considered? Those questions need to
be considered in your nominations, but will be answered once the popular vote
has been counted.
1.) Andy Manson
2.) Michael Rickman
3.) John Warren

Sportsman of the Year
For any person that displayed true
sportsmanship and courtesy during competition. This does not necessarily have to
be a racer.
1.) Ed Rice
2.) Willard Kinzer
3.) Kurt Neighbor

Crew Member of the Year
This award is meant to honor the
crew member that had the most significant impact on their team’s performance
during the season.
1.) Dallas Schultz
2.) Bryan Parker
3.) Jake Holdridge

Ambassador of the Year
The NMCA Ambassador of the Year is a
person who has made a mark on the NMCA drag racing community by being a true
competitor, a sportsman, and a supporter of both NMCA and all street legal drag
racing.
1.) Barry Camp
2.) Andy Warren
3.) Dave Schultz
