All the answers from Mitch and Jerret are correct. We will be running course one as posted, with two sets of three laps plus warmup lap in the morning. The afternoon could change depending on the time. The autocross course for the next day is set up after the Time Trial. I do ask that you pre-register at "http://register.pca.org", you don't have to pay till the morning at the event if your not sure you can make it. This really speeds up the morning registration process giving us more time for parade laps. And concerning parade laps, these are a no helmet get acquaninted to the course laps. Keep your speeds down, at no time should lose control of your car (no spins). I'm trying to get a copy of the autocross course for Sunday from the AX Chairperson, If I do I will post it here.
I was hoping to have my 914 ready for the start of the season with the freshened up motor, but a couple stub pipes for the header are leaking and I haven't got the external oil cooler installed yet. So it looks like I'll be bring the Miata.

Me too. Gonna test the new Stalker motor rebuilt last week. Got to put a few hundred on it before Sunday though.
I did agx adj shocks...fm springs 318lb front 233lb rear...and did the rear shock plates that add over a 1" of travel...1" solid front sway bar...and the Dunlop star specs....I'll be installing everything tomorrow and see how far I get...:)
Dang... should be a different car. Sounds like fun.

Thanks...I can't wait to see how she does...as soon as I'm done I'll go Monday and get pro tuning to do a good alignment and get some caster and neg camber going....
Signed up for the autox, going to try out new alignment settings now that I installed my offset bushings.
I was at PTP today. I think they align 1/2 the field of competition.
Forsure!!! They are the best around!!
I am not sure what class I should be in, I signed up in class 6, please move me to the correct class. I will run a SCCA B stock car, an S2000 with shocks, front sway bar and cat back exhaust.

I would lose the loop, or at the least move it too the start of the course.
I'm not going to make the event (car is in the shop). But in the interest of tire wear, I'd run the loop the opposite direction.
Wow, that is a wild looking course! My tires are cringing at the thought of the loop. Looks like some good seat time.

Nice course but I vote to get rid of the loop too!
Great time trial today. Very friendly group of people. Ran very smoothly. Wind picked up and made a nasty head wind for the back straight in the afternoon.
My fastest lap:
Good time today. I really like my new RS3s. Those things stick like glue out there!
