GonneVille Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 I think I may show up to this. I've been wanting to try this thing out in a lot course. God help me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossle Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 couple other questions I forgot to ask. Am I allowed to ride along with my wife when she drives? If she's shy about doing the corner work, can I do it for her? What are the rules regarding sharing a car? Usually there are two run groups, they split all the cars in half. If there is a two driver car they usually have it run both heats, one driver one heat, the other the next heat. I think it's mainly because of how quickly the heats flow since there aren't many people. Since normally you would run the two driver cars first then switch and get back in line on grid. I'm sure, if you talked to the event coordinators you could work something out, it's real laid back. You are allowed to have riders if you are a novice. (Less than one full season of autocross experience) You are allowed riders during the "fun runs" at the end regardless of experience. Corner working is also really laid back, if there are enough people she won't have to work possibly, but it's a lot of fun....for a little bit haha. Usually the older folks don't go out and work at all. There will be a whole lot of us youngins there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossle Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 I got 11 runs in and i hurt lol. I'm going to bed. Super tight course, there were less than 20 people running i believe. I thought the course was excellent! Keeps those Porsche's out of their power band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GonneVille Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 I wish I'd come, but I went to the airshow yesterday, and I woke up this morning is serious sunburn hurt-age. Putting on a helmet probably would sloughed skin off my face... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Science Abuse Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 My manifold cracked again. You know what'd be great? If some one devised a computer system to warn you of such impending doom. Though, I'm not sure what such a warning would say....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossle Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 I was at the scca event at national trails. Tell them to schedule their events on my off weekends next time, please I talked to the event chair yesterday at work for a little bit and expressed to him that he needs to sit down with the SCCA calender and schedule their next couple of events around SCCA's events. I will post up future events as they come up. They are really looking forward to having a larger crowd even if they are not Porsche's.
