Fairport 2018 Event Scores

Fairport 2018 Stage 0 Scores

Fairport 2018 Stage 1 Scores

Fairport 2018 Stage 2 Scores

It’s over, and what a weekend! We can’t thank Howard, Janet, Doug, Dana and crew more for putting on an outstanding event. We are pretty sure the $15,600 check to the Egypt Fire Department is a record that will stand for a long time. Congrats to the winners, Car 38 Martin and Martin on their 18.43 second weekend and victory over the hard charging Knowles and Gentry team in car 66. SOP winners were the Craigs in car 18, and Rookie honors went to the Stahl girls in car 16. Thanks to everyone who attended and/or contributed. We will see you again in October!

RIP Kurt Rappold

We are saddened to hear of the passing of longtime NERC member Kurt Rappold today. Kurt was a good friend of the NERC, and it is fair to say that without his support we may have folded in the early days. We will share details as they become available.

If you want to send Pat a card, the address is 116 Gov Markham Dr, Glen Mills, PA 19342

Unbelievable job from the Sharps! We just got the word that the Spring 2018 rally is now full. Also, unoficially, the block of rooms at the Hampton Inn has been sold out. There are still rooms available, but at a higher rate. There are several other hotels in the area including a Holiday Inn Express, Microtell Inn and Homewood Suites. NERC is not endorsing these hotels, but they are within a short drive of the Hampton Inn.

Only 2 months to go. Lets get the cars ready to rally!!!

 Another Pumpkin Run is over and from the comments I received, it was a good weekend.  I enjoyed seeing everyone as I raced from the start line to pit stops and lunch stops and then back to the finish line.  It’s always a hoot watching Dana Sharp wheel that Hudson around tight corners and curves.

Thanks to everyone that joined us and our sponsors, we were able to donate $6,500 to the Millsboro Fire Company and give the Millsboro Police Department $500 for their Needy Family Fund.  THANKS! THANKS!

I do have a correction to make.  I found out the Hershey Car Show and Swap Meet is the weekend that we planned to have our rally.  Because so many members of our rally family attend the Hershey event, I was able to change the 2018 Pumpkin Run to October 19-21, 2018.  Please make a note of the date change.

I want to thank Doug Sharp for becoming President of the Northeast Rally Club and I thank everyone for supporting me for the last 17 years.

Also, I want to thank Joe Roche for handling our website www.northeastrallyclub.com  .

I hope everyone has a healthy and safe winter and that you will join Howard and Doug in Fairport, NY next May for our spring rally.

Fairport, NY

May 4, 5 & 6, 2018

Wow, can you believe it?  I was one and done, now I’m two and done.

Announcement:  NERC Spring Rally 2018 will be in Fairport, NY as it was in 2016.  The dates are May 4, 5 & 6, 2018.   I have confirmed with the Egypt Fire Hall and the Hampton Inn and everybody is on board with the dates. The Fireman’s committee replied with “Bring it on!”

I will do my best to duplicate what I did in 2016.  We are only taking 50 cars, so get yourself on the list with a $200.00 deposit.  Please make the check out to Lowell Twitchell NERC and send it to me, Howard Sharp 445 Loud Rd.  Fairport, NY 14450.  Balance to be paid in the Spring of 2018.

Thank you all for giving me, Howard Sharp, the opportunity to host this spring event again.

I am so fortunate to have spent the weekend with the greatest navigator and life partner, Pauline. She never stops making me better. Thanks to her we finished 1st in SOP and earned 3 ACES!! We are both blessed to be able to be able to enjoy the company of our friends from the Delaware Valley Jaguar Club and Northeast Rally Club. The Tourjes, Hursts and Rutledges shared information with us that kept us on track and on time and we appreciate their help. So many people to thank, so little space. Bob Bryan deserves special recognition for his service as president to NERC. Thanks to everyone for a memorable rally.
