you may want to get your own helmet, although loaners will be available (correct size and freshness not guaranteed

)

also, we're gonna be one of the first groups to use Summit Point's new Triple Skid Pad; should be a great time

Someone needs to change the date on our forum. It says 4/4. It is good you mentioned it is 4/18 or else I would have been there on 4/4 by myself.

bubbletea 4 me · 03-15-2009, 11:22 PM

lol, i know right. i kept thinkin it was 4/4 cuz of the title but then Paul wrote 4/18 in the thread itself. Paul, you need to change the title cuz it's def. confusing everyone.

pseto · 03-16-2009, 07:38 AM

i changed the date, but it wipes out all the previous RSVPs

pseto · 03-17-2009, 06:57 PM

Porsches, RX8s, a couple of Cobras, Vettes, S2000s, a Shelby, and plenty of M cars. just a taste of what cars come out to each autox.

for those who are beginners, we'll get you paired up with some instructors to get you comfortable with the course.

did i mention we'll be a Summit Point?

Yes, a large variety!

The course should be fun also!

I'll be more than happy to give rides if time permits... you could always see what not to do.

Well.. at least with 4 doors, I can ballast the back of the car also.

Biggins · 03-24-2009, 07:43 PM

Anyone else? Online registration will probably close soon.

pseto · 03-27-2009, 09:07 AM

pseto · 03-27-2009, 03:04 PM

FrankoQ · 03-30-2009, 09:08 AM

So?
any pics of this event?

pseto · 03-30-2009, 09:45 AM

plenty of pics and videos here:

I had a great time at the new facility. from everyone I talked to, it got raving reviews, and will only get better once the grass grows in. the layout was excellent as we were able to run at least 2-3 people on the course at a time which made the waiting less annoying

personally, you guys should be ashamed of yourselves since there were several women out there autox-ing their e90s/e46s

the rain actually made it more fun and was a truer test of driving skills. it was a great equalizer for the huge difference in HP among all the cars. that may explain why the 2 mishaps we had were an M5 and RX8

see the pics for yourselves

FrankoQ · 03-30-2009, 11:01 AM

looks like wet fun.
