    Where will the course be? Will the field be closed to planes?

    I haven't played with BMW in a long time. Might be fun.

    It will be on the X, where the two secondary runways meet.

    M3 is always the answer.

    Keep in mind that the cones in that map are about 5' wide, so the course is not as tight and short as it appears.

    5' wide cones might be tough on the fenders, but I'll try and make this one anyways. Should be fun.

    We want as many as could be there to drive up. The Chamber of Commerce is really trying to make this a big event. That's one of the big reason the fees are low and they let the club have the venue at no cost.

    I learned this the hard way.....

    Take all of your valuables out of your car at night. This includes taking the mounting hardware off of your windshield or dash and hiding the power supplies. I lost over $ 1,000 to a thief with no hope of recovering my items and to top if off they smashed my window in the rain and my truck got soaked. Let my loss be your learning experience.

    Has anybody started a thread on the event on the September 26th or am I just missing it?
    I wanted to see what the course looks like.

    It looks like the same surface that I just left in Lincoln, with the 25' squares and all. If so, then there will be a ton of grip.
