It was fun. Straight into sweepers were both challanging and great fun. 7 runs, too. Some really fast times from street tire cars.
MarkLast year they started bit after 9 and with 2 run groups, we did 4 runs in the morning and 4 again in the afternoon with a lunch break and they provided a BBQ(I do not have confirmation re lunch this year). I have sent out an e mail for more info.
Mark[quote=”bmw2002″ post=1700]What are the run groups for the upcoming event. I am in Gonzo, but i am trying to get out as soon as possible.
thanks,

Did Steve K get his 2002 running? :ohmy:
MarkThey snaked it up and back and had such a late 2nd car start that there were only 2 cars on it. It all worked because there were only 42 drivers.

You all must be doing something right :cheer:
MarkI havn’t jumped in on this thread mainly because I have no dog in the fight. Almost all courses are fun in my car 🙂
So before this gets too personal and not productive let me point out that each autocross group has its own style(s) of course design and event implementation. AAS is known for fast open courses and a family atmosphere. It is run by a core of dedicated people. SCCA has lots of variety of courses as they have many designers and they struggle with getting volunteers. BMW has a small group of dedicated people, they take very good care of new drivers and supply lunch.
Certainly we can form our own opinions about what kinds of courses we like and we can even try to encourage groups we like to design to our favorite style. In the end, We(the autocross community) benefit by having as many events as possible to attend and we have the choice of which ones to go to. The power of the market place will sort out the details in the number of attendees.
So, Thanks to all the people who make our events happen and please don’t let the detractors, the expressers of their opinions, keep you from your great work.
MarkThree weeks out and 94 people on board! Looks like a sell out.
I think I figured out how to make some money off this success. Let me register 2x and then I can auction off one of my spots to the highest bidder from the wait list 😉

Great video. The main character is very approachable 🙂
Mark[quote=”ddunwood” post=1614]This is registration for the fast course? :P[/quote]
I thought the last course was the “fast course” 😉
