I am in for both 102 and TT.
3Bean - something just occurred to me. You may want to contact Bill and ask him how they'll handle tech for you and your car, since you don't have a top, have a bar and a harness, but don't sit under the top of the bar. They may have an issue with that... but I don't know for sure.
Yep, they are pretty picky :xQuote:

Maybe they are charging by the question? :PQuote:

Great :roll: so that's about a 120-mile round trip and about 2-1/2 hours on a Wednesday evening to get the car teched.
Patience, Grasshopper. :wink:Quote:

Although that was last year, just because they did it before is no guarantee they will do it again. :wink:Quote:

Unless you have a severe hardship or have to travel for hours to get here, it's important to have your car teched BEFORE the event. We will certainly tech cars that morning, but we will be much stronger that we have been with not allowing cars that don't pass.
Bean went last year? :lol:Quote:

I signed up for 102!
Hey All:
I'm brand new here and am planning to get into AutoX next year. (I did some many, many years ago but not worth mentioning.) I signed up for both the 101 and 102 classes as $40x2 seems like a great deal for some quick instruction and experience.
I'd assume that the bar discussion is for time trial events. I looked at the downloadable Tech Inspection Form and there didn't seem to be anything there about them (and I can't imagine why they'd be required for AutoX). Is this the case?
Chuck
Chuck-
Welcome aboard!
Roll bar isn't required, but you will probably be required to run top up without one with PCA. Most of us don't think this is a big deal, but some gripe from time to time.
We have a nifty chart detailing the quirks of all the area autocross clubs.
