    I've been told before that certain autocrossers didn't want local coverage for fear that all sorts of new folks would show up and clog the works.

    Serious!

    BTW I think both the Dallas and Ft. Worth papers did articles on local AX this year.

    BEDFORD -- Winds, lightning and stinging rain shut down the Sports Car Club of America's day of racing at Pennington Field a little early Sunday,
    That explains the light turnouts all year

    What we need is Dale Hansen to do a story on AX!

    What's funny is that I recognize almost all of the cars/people on that video. Lessee... I saw cars belonging to Chris Williams, Eric Jones, Doc Strelniks, Beth McClure-Strelniks, Andy Hollis, and Steve Hudson. Plus the ever photogenic Ms. Cooper, who is Zack's better half.
