Keith I leave town for work on the 11th thru the 16th. I can do it anytime before or after that. I am hoping to be racing on Sunday at Family Arena.
I think the 20 21 22 would be safe dates for me.
Wibby, Mike, Keith, and Tim - a couple of things.
First, if I remember right the scales are out of calibration. I'm not sure this is the best time to use them. Paul is the club scale expert, and I think he said we need to recalibrate them using a known weight of about 500 pounds, one pad at a time. Can anyone assist us with this weight? Second, these are "club" scales and I would prefer that we don't lend them out to folks. I don't mind if you (Wibby) visits the guys and get your car scaled while they are using them. That said - Third, I would like to personally invite Wibby to join the club. It's not expensive, and the scales are only one small benefit.
Thanks,
STL Mark

Mark,
I agree 100%. I personally don't think it’s right for me to use the scales without being a member of the club and in good standing. I'm happy to join the club. I just want to be up front with everyone though in saying that at this time (with 2 young boys) I won't be able to be as active a member as I would like and unfortunately the monthly GCC meeting occurs on the same day as the Cub Scout Pack committee meeting. I'm currently the Cubmaster for my boys Pack. The conflict with the Cub Scout meeting is the main reason that I haven't yet joined.
Regarding the calibration issue. If 500 lbs is required, can regular workout weights be used, or what is needed? I have some 45's, 35's and 25's if workout weights can be used.
Thanks,
Wibby

Wibby, sounds like we need to show up at a cub scout meeting 
Obviously, that is more important, but keep an eye out for cruises. Right now, no need with the hot weather, but we have several events planned for the 2nd half of the year.
