August 2009, Volume 12, Issue 8


General Meeting - August 5, 2009

The meeting was called to order at 7:14 PM by Pres. Keith Thorson.
In addition to Keith, members present were Ted Bechtel, Frank Brown, Jim Nakata, J.O. and Irene Raff. We were very excited to welcome a Sacramento visitor, Bob Szabo. Bob owns a pristine, White, 2001 Trans Am. He is a Racing Tech Manual author and has a very interesting web site: http://www.racecarbook.com. He has authored “Fuel Injection Racing Secrets”, “Jetting for Racing—Mechanical Fuel Injection for small block engines” and “5,000 Horsepower on Methanol”. Dennis and Terry were absent due to “Hot August Nights”. Robert and Fay Holland were also missed.

The July Minutes were approved as printed in the Trans Script. It was noted however, that the Treas. showed June “Cash on Hand General Fund” to be 5/1/09. The typo has been corrected.

Old Business: Past Events;

Our visit to Scandia Family Fun Center for Miniature Golf was discussed. Frank Brown had a hole in one and Robert Holland brought his own putter. In spite of these “experts”, there were no scores worth bragging about. There were eight adults and five young people present. There was no other old business discussed.

New Business: Upcoming Events;

Hot Chili and Cool Cars, Saturday, September 19th; BAHCC Hayward Swap Meet, open to all makes and models, at Cal State University, Hayward, Sunday, August 30th; and a Romin Angels, 1972 and older show, Sept. 11-13 in Grass Valley, were all discussed. For the Hot Chili and Cool Cars show in Rocklin, a caravan was set up to meet at California Burgers, 10 A.M., Sept. 19th. The show is for 1973 and older vehicles only but we thought the Chili might be good. There will be more discussion during our September meeting.

Speaking of the September meeting, it will be held in a new location. We will meet at Coco’s Restaurant and Bakery, 1830 Arden Way, Sacramento, at the usual 7:00 PM. Keith will notify Denny’s that we won’t be back.

We also discussed the possibility of a Chili Cook-off at the Riff-Raff’s in October. We will also have a “Pizza” night at “Pasquale’s Italian Pizzeria, Thursday, August 20th. (See Upcoming Events.)

Frank Brown moved and Ted Bechtel seconded that the meeting be adjourned at 8:05 PM.

Respectfully Submitted: Irene Raff, Secretary.
