Well, the season has come to a close and I wanted to take this opportunity to say THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR MAKING THIS SEASON A SUCCESS!!! Without the racers we would not have a series and you guys came out in force this year to make the 2008 GLORCS season a success. I would also like to thank the track owners for their co operation and hard work in putting together race facilities that were a pleasure to run at. I had a conversation with a racer at Action Hobbies who commented on how the facilities are continuing to improve and evolve which makes racing better for everyone.

I also would like to take this time to thank my fellow Series Directors for their hard work and the reps who took time to help out track side. The Rep Program was a big success this year and we have already had people approach us who want to get involved for next season. Having more people involved makes lighter work for us all and in the long run will make everyone’s life easier.

In 2008 we tried to take steps to fine tune the series and tried to listen to what the racers were saying. We instituted the first GLORCS survey to get input on the series and got a very positive response. We will be repeating this in 2009 in a more in depth format. We would like to congratulate Abiye Birku who was the winner of the draw for people who put in surveys; He was the winner of product provided to us by XXX Main, Advanced Hobby and Proline.

We have already begun to plan for 2009 and have some things in store that will make GLORCS even better. We have already been approached by new sponsors and are hoping to see the return of our sponsors from this season. Their generous support has made it easier to provide material, prizes and promotional aids for the series. I would like to thank all our sponsors from this year;
