Dear Garden State Members:
Thank you to all who appreciate the time and effort that we put into the running of the club for your kids. For those of you who continue to volunteer and support us, we thank you for your loyalty.
Sincerely,
Jill Forrester

Safety News: Please be sure all novices contact the novice director or read the QMA rulebook on line before buying any equipment. All cars must be safety inspected before they are able to race.
The NJ State Law regarding the 2 year seatbelts will be strictly enforced. Your seatbelts must have dates on them and cannot be more than 2 years old.
Please remember to let your drivers know that in NJ it is not allowed to hang out of the car. The helmet may not be passed half way of the Jersey Bar, and seat belts need to be tightened. Steel braided fuel line is MANDATORY in NJ, this is not an option. If you know of someone who is running at our track without it, please let Bruce Heisler, or one of the other officers know immediately. If you have any questions about this or any other safety issue, please do not hesitate to ask. It is ultimately your responsibility to make sure that your driver is safe.
Tech News: Any new novices or anyone else that bought a motor from someone should have it teched before racing. Anyone who is unsure of whether or not their motor is legal should also have it teched. Please contact Rick Mauriello. It is better to be safe than sorry.
Please be advised that motors were dq'd at the States Race for a polished crank. The sun gears have also been polished on some motors but this was not checked. Please have our tech people look at your motors to be sure you are legal. **Several engine builders have been in touch with Rick and heads and cranks have been coming right out of the box illegal.
Web-site News: As of the first of the year, Sebastian Font will be taking over the GSQMRC web site. Please be in touch with him if anyone needs anything posted. Anyone racing in the off season should get the results to Sebastian to post.
A very special thank you to Kevin Forrester who has been doing the web site for as long as it has existed. We thank him for the countless hours he put in to get it up and running and for the fun and entertainment he has provided us with over the years.

Please keep in mind that everyone in this club is a volunteer when it comes to working. We all make mistakes but do our best in everything from scoring to sign in’s to judging, to everything else that takes place at the track. Let’s try to remember to set a good example for the kids and show our support for one another
