SUBJECT:
Projects Currently Under Active Developir ent or Requested for Development
by Huntsville Race Operations____________________________________________*_

The following projects are under various stages of development by Huntsville Race
Operations. This list continues to grow as requests are received from the various
Race Group supervisors. We have attempted to place a priority on each project
based upon its need and the relationship to the overall program. This priority may
or may not be optimum. However, as our manpower and time are limited, we must
try to schedule projects very carefully.

First priority is of course our regular support of NASCAR and Drag Test activities,
however, due to the lull in NASCAR type tests our instrumentation people have had
some time to devote to new projects. The most important it is felt for the total pro­
gram is the buildup of the printed circuit board signal conditioning and power supply
system. This system will save time and money during operation as well as provide
a more flexible measurement base system for future growth.

If you or any of the Race Group Supervisors have any items to add to this list, I
would like to receive them and establish priorities for each project based on the
overall schedule and requirement.
