That turned out to be a good course, with the exception of the tight slalom half way thru. A nice, quick day. I was second to Thomas is X class. I felt really fast in the afternoon and it felt good. Again, I will take La Grave over Pennington any day.
We also learned that the Whataburger off Main and NE 28th is kind of crappy, so we will stick with McDonalds in the future.
Last, the management of La Grave Field struck again -- after we set up the course using the entire lot, we were told that a portion of the lot was designated for motorcycle training, so we had to cut off part of the course. They did not have the restrooms open until later, and even then it was probably because the maintenance guy happened to show up. Last, there were some trailers in a corner on the course. They were not really an issue, but SCCA/ER safety rules probably would not have allowed them. I am going to mention this to Solo RX7, as I would hate to see problems like this at the SCCA Divisional event. La Grave management really has to understand the needs of the groups that rent this place for an autocross.
