PF INTERNATIONAL KART CIRCUIT 5th to 6th June 2021 PHOTO: GRAEME CAMERON PHOTOGRAPHY F100 90S KART CLUB Driver of the day This very special and very beautiful trophy been kindly donated by Chris Armstrong’s family. It will be awarded annually to the ‘Driver of the Day’ in Pre 89/95 at each O-Plate. Chris, who was affectionately known as Flash through his colourful and vibrant race suit design, was so looking forward to this years Open having never competed in it before. May his Spark and his Spirit ride with you all. Our thanks and love go to the Armstrong Family Jane, Luke, Beccy, Melissa x The main F100 Championships take a break this month for the long awaited F100 Open Championship. It’s amazing that it’s now been 2 years since F100 last came to PFi, a long time in the making so enjoy! The 2019 Open Championship winners have had the luxury of running the much coveted O-plates for all this time, we’ll probably need a crow bar to wrench it from them. There’s been the usual light hearted banter and bragging on the social media groups about who’s favourite and who’s going to win this weekend, which is great to see, just remember all that stops when the ‘Flag Drops’ - There is only one winner. Many of you will be happy to see the format of ‘Shotgun Qualifying’ back for event which is a bit different from the normal 3x heats & final. It’s still amazing to see the amount of interest for this yearly event, Pre 2000 sold out within an hour of entries opening with the unlucky drivers then added to a waiting list. Who will take the honours this year, well... you’ll just have to wait and see!! It’s great to see a resurgence for the Pre95 Class with a few drivers coming out of retirement to have a peddle round. Thank you so much for supporting the event, its great to have you back. Pre89 should be great fun to watch, can Holly Crankshaw, overcome a recent injury to win & can Simon Nicholson overcome the might of ‘Girl Power’ to take victory. The Aqua FX classes have really excelled themselves, the rallying drum was well and truly banged before the entries opened, and what a fantastic effort, a great grid of some class drivers should really see some great racing. And with 3 newcomers jumping in at the Deep End to start in the class at PFi it should be an exciting race to watch. Good Luck and safe racing to everyone Tim, Jay, Chris Your F100 Team Foreword PF International circuit First opened in 1994, this track is the brain-child of Mr Paul Fletcher (a man who has been involved in karting since the 50s).

It’s been a year of both triumph and, unfortunately, tragedy and in this issue we take time out to remember María de Villota, whose passing in October left a deep void not just in motor sport but in all our hearts. María’s bravery following her F1 testing accident and the dedication she displayed afterwards – not only in promoting female involvement in motor sport but also safety on the road and track – will be missed. Elsewhere, it was a year of great success for women competitors and in this edition we look at Lucile Cypriano’s victory in the VW and commission-supported shoot-out for a place in next year’s VW Scirocco R-Cup and reveal how the FIA European Rallycross Championship has become a haven for female racers. It’s been a great year for CONTACTS: women in all forms of motor sport and IF YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS ABOUT THIS NEWSLETTER OR we look forward to even more in 2014!

Singer’s latest services will enable their clients to go off-road racing, with a Porsche 911 modified by Singer for all-terrain use. The All-terrain Competition Study has been undertaken by Singer, in partnership with renowned 911 rally specialist Richard Tuthill, in response to the request from their client for modifications to his air-cooled Porsche 911 that would enable the car to compete in off-road racing and to demonstrate extensive all-terrain exploration capabilities. To highlight the broad repertoire of the ACS, the client has commissioned two machines, one - in Singer’s iconic Parallax White - focused on high-speed desert rallying and a second – in Corsica Red - configured for high-speed, high-grip tarmac events and disciplines. Porsche 911s prepared by UK-based off-road competition specialist Richard Tuthill have dominated rally events for decades, with recent victory in the 2019 East African Safari Classic marking a remarkable 4th win in the grueling 5000km event across Kenya and Tanzania.

    Diversity & Inclusion in Motorsport FIA Member Clubs Study 2021 April 2021 Table of contents Executive Summary 04 Introduction 05 Research Method 06 Diversity and Inclusion in Sport 07 Motorsport in Africa/Middle East 09 Role Models 10 Research Findings 11 Proposed Solutions 15 Conclusion 19 3 Diversity and Inclusion Study 2021 Overview Executive Summary The issues of diversity and inclusion in motorsport have rarely been adequately addressed and the evidence of this is found amid the composition of those who compete in its respective disciplines, as well as produce and administer the sport in its various forms. In recent times a greater determination to make a meaningful difference in the under-representation of all minority groups, emerging from what might be regarded as non-traditional motorsport regions, has again surfaced. This report, which is notable because it directly reflects the stated views of ASNs most adversely impacted by the continued absence of a coherent FIA- led plan to address their underrepresentation, highlights the importance of promoting diversity and inclusion agendas within motorsport, the critical role this plays in encouraging a greater number of young people to continue their involvement in it and the importance of offering a ‘hand up’ rather than a ‘hand out’ when facilitating a meaningful change in their lived experiences to date within motorsport. The key recommendations revolve around three areas • Talent Identification and Support. • The promotion of a Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) agenda in key target regions to promote involvement in motorsport in its widest sense. • The establishment of a F1 Legacy fund in which a small percentage of the overall agreed fee paid by the event promoter would be ‘ring fenced’ to instigate and support a national motorsport development plan and, thereby, facilitate young nationals evolve from being mere spectators to become active participants in motorsport.

  • Media Fact Sheet Shell Helix Ultra in Motorsport
    MEDIA FACT SHEET SHELL HELIX ULTRA IN MOTORSPORT In the fast-paced, high pressure world of motorsport, demands on the engine are vastly different from your everyday road drive. Across all motorsport series, engineers are being challenged to make sure that race engines are able to deliver maximum performance over longer distances and with greater efficiency. In these circumstances, engine oil plays a crucial role in ensuring that race engines last by helping reducing friction, protecting engine parts from wear and displacing large amounts of heat generated within the power unit. This is why Shell’s partners in the world of motorsport from rallying, to single-seater racing, to touring car racing choose Shell Helix Ultra with PurePlus Technology to protect their high-performance race engines. Shell PurePlus Technology is a revolutionary gas-to-liquid process that converts natural gas into a crystal- clear base oil with virtually none of the impurities found in crude oil. Base oil is one of the main building blocks of the low viscosity engine oils required by today’s most advanced engines, helping them to deliver long-lasting performance under extreme temperatures and pressures. PROTECTING THE SCUDERIA FERRARI ENGINES IN A NEW AGE OF FORMULA 1 As Formula 1 continues to move in the direction of greater efficiency, changing engine regulations have forced teams to find yet more creative ways to extract every last bit of performance possible from the machinery. Introduced in 2014, F1’s down-sized V6 turbocharged power units have to work much harder than their predecessors, and reflect a universal trend across the world of motoring and motorsport alike.

Increasing gender equality across every industry and profession is so important and, in our sport, I do feel there have been positive changes. Through our own programmes we have opened the eyes of thousands of young girls to the world of motor sport, and increasingly we are seeing more and more women taking up positions that would previously have been labelled ‘for the boys’. In this booklet, we are delighted to introduce you to some of the females working in the FIA World Touring Car Cup, inspirational women who have very diverse roles across many areas.

  • Rallying Around the Flag
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Rallying around the Flag: Nationalist Emotions in American Mass Politics A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology by Yuval Feinstein 2012 © Copyright by Yuval Feinstein 2012 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Rallying around the Flag: Nationalist Emotions in American Mass Politics by Yuval Feinstein Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology University of California, Los Angeles, 2012 Professor Andreas Wimmer, Chair This dissertation revisits the “rally-round-the-flag” (RRTF) phenomenon in which the popularity of sitting U.S. presidents increases abruptly and sharply after major war events and during security crises. Chapter 1 opens with a review of the existing approaches to the RRTF phenomenon. Based on this review, I claim that despite four decades of scholarship, the RRTF phenomenon is still not well understood for at least four reasons. First, existing explanations are often overly rationalistic, ignoring the crucial role of emotions in the formation of political attitudes. Second, when scholars do consider the role of emotions, they tend to focus on negative ones, such as fear and anger, and overlook the role of positive emotions. Third, none of the existing approaches focuses on the nationalist framing of the situation or the nationalist emotions of pride, confidence, and hope, which are essential components of the RRTF effect. Fourth, approaches that focus solely on the role of elite rhetoric, which steers public opinion in war time, miss the fact that the RRTF effect is co-produced through an interaction between official rhetoric and the perceptions and diffused nationalist sentiment of the general population.

    2016 Boro Fan Almanac Written By: Billy Schaefer 1 Contents Introduction … Pg. 3 Previous Almanac Statistics… Pg. 4. Division 1 Individual Rankings… Pg. 5 Division 1 Team Projections… Pg. 28 Division 2 Individual Rankings… Pg. 29 Division 2 Team Projections … Pg. 51 Division 3 Individual Rankings… Pg. 52 Division 3 Team Projections … Pg. 73 2 Introduction Fans & Readers: Thank you for coming back another year and reading what is officially the Sixth Annual Boro Fan Almanac covering all three divisions. It goes without saying, but this is served as a prediction report. As you may or may not know, I release weekly rankings on my website, borofanohio.net, and have been doing so for the past five seasons. The first year I put a report together it only covered Division 3, but the past four years I have moved to both Division 1 and Division 2 as well. In 2011, I released rankings for the Top 40+ in Division 3, but did no dialogue. When reading the report, please remember that I have not seen every result. Also, when reading the report, keep in mind that head-to-head results do count, but the overall rankings are amongst “the field” and not focused on one particular head-to-head win/loss. I hope that you guys enjoy reading this as much as I do in putting it together. Thank you for the continuous support and attention that you guys show for The Almanac and my website year in and year out, it means a lot. Remember to follow me on Twitter @BoroFan_OH_WRST.
