I'm on baby-standby, but I'm tenatively "in."

[LePapirrikY]

Im in!

I'll email them about the "refund", what do i need to different on my registration.

[bnordin]

I'll be there. Maybe my college son as well. School is almost out.

I plan to be there but so far the PCA events I have tried to attend seems to attract rain, lets hope for no rain. Forcast already looks a little iffy.

[THoward914]

I'll be there too.
If you paid a entry fee for the cancelled PCA AX, when you register for this event don't pay. The fee will be applied to this event.

I am thinking about going, but with a 50% chance of rain I wonder if it will be canceled. Was the last autocross at Mineral Wells a special case or do they always cancel events because of a little rain? I am talking about the Sunday autocross I understand why they canceled the TT on Saturday.


Yes I am still a little bitter, but I would like to give PCA another chance. Just not sure how they do things.

(I also need a lot of practice if I am going to get to the 10,000 hours of seat time to be good. I am going to need a lot of tires!)

[jrj512]

They do not usually cancel for rain. I think it was more of a case of not enough workers compounded by the rain. You might want to email the AX Chair from their web site to verify.

[OZMDD]

hope they don't cancel for rain. That'd be a bad precedent to set! :)

[LePapirrikY]

So, are we suppose to leave it on pending?

[ken o]

I might try to make it the weather looks ok.

[OZMDD]

Unless we get a big surprise tonight, I'm in.

[jbh]

Weather turned out great, a little rain in the am but completely dry by the first run.

[jrj512]

Yep, dry weather accept for some light rain in the AM. All runs were dry, though.

I hated the course when I walked it and I expected even less watching the first heat drivers, but it turned out to be a fun course once I drove it. It was a very good excercise in letting the line dictate your speed. If you gave it up and kep your line, it all worked out great! I would have had FTD if it were not for stupid Clovis in his stupider Lotus Exige S.

Nice job, PCA!

[OZMDD]

Stupid Lotus... :) Nice driving Jimmy Jan!

[OZMDD]

I thought the course was a good lesson in control, but the "witch hat" pivot cone was a killer. Never figured out the right line/speed.

[LePapirrikY]

Great course! and yes, that last cone was a killer.

[bnordin]

Had a great time and sharing with my son is always a treat for me. Still plenty to learn about the car and me. Great Day.
