Meeting was called to order at 7:10 by Guy. Also present were Tracy, Butch, Courtney, Jarred, Lisa and Duane.

Minutes and financial report were read and approved.

Chuck Swope filled out an application for membership. The vote was unanimous to accept. Welcome aboard Chuck.

Pictures of the ride-along car were passed around so everyone could see the progress that is being made on it. It will be ready for engine and transmission soon.

LLC designation is pretty much in place.

Duane reported that Quantum Race Products had called about repairing the scales controller, and they should be fixed soon and sent back.

Tracy reported on ticket sales for the Kart race. Ronan and Polson schools both thought they would have groups that could use it for fund raisers. The Ronan and Polson baseball organizations, the Big Brothers/Big Sisters and local Fire Departments were also interested.  S&K Electronics is interested in doing a corporate sponsorship, as are a couple other businesses. It looks like this will be a very good way to put people in the bleachers and generate revenue.  We haven’t been able to find a program on our home computers to print tickets with progressive numbers, so Gull Printing is going to give us a quote on them.

Tracy talked to the new manager of Spokane Raceway Park concerning a BSPRA race there this year. He was receptive to the proposal of us paying our own purse of $200/car and they charge nothing for car and driver into the pits. Pit crew would pay regular price. We will run under our regular rules, as opposed to the Limited Late Model Series rules. Also there is free camping at the track. We decided to go forward with this proposal and try to get a race on September 15.

The manager at Wal-Mart will let us know in the next few days what type of sponsorship they will do on the Montana Limited Late Model series. He has been gone for 3 weeks and it will take a few days to get caught up on things.

Community Bank has agreed to loan us enough money to buy 20 one way driver’s radios, 3 two-way officials’ radios, and a new bore scope. The five board members will sign the note, with repayment scheduled for 3 yearly payments after the race season is over, and the money should be in our account on Tuesday, Mar 6. Tracy will get with Ben Sharbono of the Montana Flat Track race group to make the order.

Due to the Montana 200 in Kalispell being run on the weekend of July 21, the race that we had scheduled on that date at Mission Valley Speedway will be changed to July 28. MVS will not be open that night.

Meeting was adjourned at 8:10.
