    Default LSCBMW CCA @ La Grave 4/20

    8 runs at La Grave, anyone else going? I know lots will be at the divisional and ER is the same day at MW I believe.

    Don't forget the air conditioned restrooms.

    I like events at La Grave, too.

    People autocross in lots with light poles all over the country. We're just lucky here in DFW to have so many sites without them. You're spoiled!

    You know we're talking about BMWCCA here right? I'm sure their course will be as long as the ER course at MW. Last time they used both the main lot and the area where SCCA paddocks at LaGrave. It made for a really fun course.

    Hmmmm... I was planning MW, but I may just have to change my mind. What time is tech/check-in at these things?

    Yes I am DFW is a great place to live for an autocrosser. It's good that they use the hole lot wish SCCA would. Mineral Wells is still my favorite site (all ways wanted to be a rally driver).

    That part through the SCCA paddock is still one of the most fun I have done. Using those dips to rotate the car was a gas! You just had to step on it and believe, man.

    Yeah, those off/on camber offsets were so much fun! You'd go flyin in and screaming "there's no way I'm going to make it" and then bang, on camber and tons of grip.

    Mark52, you just slowed down too much for that. You could have made it through there in second. I did on street tires.

    They have loaners, just give them your drivers license while you're running and they give it back when you return it. Free of charge, come on out!
