SDAC-22 Auto X ROLE CALL!!!! REGISTER by JUNE 15

[turboshad]

P-bodies represent!

That means I'm in.

I'm going to throw this out there just for count purposes. I am about 15% on being in on this.

I know its small, but like was mentioned I can't get Friday off, but luckily i'm out of work at 2 p.m.

So...13 hours+ to Detroit. I have no passenger anymore, so there's a chance if i'm feeling it, i'll just drive the whole way through (was originally planning on stopping). That puts me at the Hotel around 3/4 in the morning. If i do it, i'll certainly take a cat nap and get up and go to the Autocross....

Obviously if I stop I wont be there. =(

Does this event require a helmet? My understanding was drags only need them under a certain ET (which even if the car is capable of, i'm not) so i wasn't concerned. But maybe i'll go out and get one anyways...

[contraption22]

SCCA does require a helmet for all drivers.

Why would anyone NOT do this? (If you bring a car)

The big slicks up front and the skinny little tires in back will keep me from doing it. Once again - I wish I had kept my van

If you need extra corner workers, I'm in for that

You don't have a set of street tires you can throw on?

Nope...

[larryB]

Put me down as a maybe. Still working on getting the days off to make it.

[Mopar318]

So I guess it'll be three then.

Actually 4. My GF will be a Co-driver.

I'm in. Captain Understeer must defend his title.

Your talking about a huge group of powerful FWD cars here...its going to be plow city!

[shadow88]

To help firm up anyone, it would be helpful to know the time and maybe distance from the host hotel?

I'm probably not arriving until later saturday, but if it's still open, I'll beat on the turbo neon!

Sweet, more neons? I was the only 1st gen there last year. You probably wont be able to run the autocross unless you register in the morning and get tech. SCCA is pretty strict on stuff.

It is less than 10 minutes from the host hotel. It starts about 8am, but folks should get there EARLY, as early as 6:30 or 7:00 am. This is an SCCA regional event with possibly as many as 500-700 cars entered. I strongly doubt that anyone that gets there much after 9 or 10 am will be allowed to enter the event, just because they are expecting so many cars, and will be very busy.

This absolutely stinks.

Probably won't have a sdac feel to it, but i guess for the participants it's better than nothing.

Will they allow all the sdac partipants to run together or are we mixed in with the others?

Is this the proper link and can we register through them so we don't have to get there @ 6:30 am after many of us have long Travel days on Friday.

400-500...that seems too many for a local event. Even divisionals are in the 150-200 range.

It certainly will not have an sdac feel to it. But it is the only thing we could arrange. Because of this event, the SCCA was not willing to help us put on an event of our own in the next day or two.

Will they allow all the sdac partipants to run together or are we mixed in with the others?

From what they said this week, they will likely establish a separate class for us, but I expect the cars will run in whatever group they are assigned in.

Yes it appears to be the proper link. The guy was unable to quote us any figures earlier this week as the registration info had not been finalized and put on the web yet. But I see it is now.

OKAY EVERYONE - Pay attention here.

The cost for Saturday only will be $40 for SCCA members. If you are not an SCCA member you must purchase a weekend membership for an additional $15. And according to the website registration info, anyone that waits until Saturday morning to register will be charged $70 for the day. And I would bet the $15 will be on top of that.

That large figure was tossed out by them a few months back, I don't know how many they actually expect. But I would bet it will be more than 150-200.

And yes folks, for them, it IS a divisional event.

[cordes]

Wow, everyone better sign up early. That's a pretty steep jump in price to sign up on site.

Do we need to register through that site or can we send money to JT or you or so and so?
