GOLDEN HARVEST DOUBLE REGIONAL

The good news -- we had 122 cars and the drivers had a good time.  The bad news - the weather was miserable, the event came close to being cancelled Saturday morning due to lack of corner workers.  We started one and half hours late on Saturday.  Only about half hour late on Sunday.  Tech, Pit, Grid & Registration had minimal staffing too.
