Good luck to all.
On the track, I am fearless.
If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

Hey Guys,
I am Jason Wade, the VP of the Texas A&M Sports Car Club. We are hosting the Houston SCCA, and I am responsible for for risk management for the club. If anyone feels that something is unsafe at the event please contact me or ask for one of the other TAMSCC officers at the event. Just so you know, I spent the last 2 days on a street sweeper to make sure the course is clean and there are no gravel pits in the area we are using. I would love to meet you guys that are coming out to the event, I used to live in Frisco and flowermound and I came to a few dinners etc so you may recognize me. I can't control anything about the way the Houston SCCA events are ran here other than safety related concerns, but I would be happy to discuss any issues.. I'll be wearing a green and white hat with a 3 leafed clover on it, and I'll be coming around to meet everyone especially to the miatas..
Looking forward to meeting you guys..
Jason
I'm in sixth, about 9/10 out of first. Had a cone at the end of my last and best run that would have moved me up 7/10s. Mike is not having a good event.
Mick is ahead of Lorin.
Autocross sucks....

Evil KK is also winning her class.
Fun day today looking forward to tomorrow!
Thanks for the extra effort on cleaning the course Jason!!!
The surface was in great condition. Having the gate open before 7AM was great also.

I ended up in sixth (of 17ish), one spot out of the trophies. Stupid AX.

Not sure why we fared so poorly... We drove flat-out, dude.

Evil KK won ESL and I won ES so all in all a great weekend!
Houston Region did a great job and a good time was had by all!
Oh yea Texas Region accrued the most points to win the Region Points Championship for the 2011 divisional series!

You guys are most welcome, I hope everyone had a great time..
Did everyone get their free event coupon good for a free event at one of our fall autocrosses?
BTW, we also have one more practice scheduled this summer, August 20th-21st. The event offers unlimited runs, so you can get massive seat time before your next event. Like the divisional, the course will be on the big 4/10 split "X" area and gets changed from the first day to the second. The gate is open 8am-2pm both days with last runs around 4-430 depending on who's still there. It's a relaxed environment where you can come in the morning, make some runs, go eat lunch and come back and do it again, with no corner working. We have someone go out and reset cones when a couple get knocked over, so no standing in the heat for hours. Like I said, it's real relaxed and a great time. Times are displayed but not recorded, so you can try different approaches to corners etc and not have to waste a run at an actual event to find out if something works for you. It's also a great way to introduce someone who hasn't autocrossed before to the sport. I'd love to see a caravan of Miatas come down from Dallas and run the course all afternoon or all weekend.
I’ll get mine fixed in time to be out there.Some of y'all may remember my silver Mazdaspeed on ssrs..
We also hope you come back to see us later this year for our fall autocross schedule. We have upgraded our timing equipment and have new leadership (like me) that is working diligently to put on the best possible events for everyone. Come check us out..
Please let me know if there are any questions or concerns about TAMSCC events, I'd be happy to discuss anything.

Testdriver - didn't know about the coupons. I'll have to track one down, as I always attend one or two of your autocrosses every year.
Good work on the surface prep; it really made a difference.
I realize that your schedule is somewhat limited by the University, but if you are interested in coordinating with the clubs in the DFW area, you can probably work-out at least one weekend where you can attract a large contingent of DFW autocrossers. Talk to Jerrett Jan (jrj512) about a weekend when the big clubs aren't scheduled, and we'll be happy to publicize the event locally.
SAMMM is a moderator who can add your events to our autocross calendar. I'd be glad to see them on there, as I've missed a few when I neglected to search your forum.
