NTAXS Autocross Event #1, 3/21/2009, Pennington Field

I like the first option better all cars running the same direction.

I think we decided to run like SCCA events instead. Each car running in a heat will get 1 run before the first car out gets their 2nd run. Jimmy will confirm or deny.

I vote for running like SCCA events gives me a little time to think about the course and adjust the car if needed

29 whole seconds!!!













that's what she said!::Rimshot:

I'm a relative "noob", and I think the course looks reasonable. Isn't careful course-walking a critical skill for the novices to develop early-on? This course looks like it will quickly reinforce that lesson if you don't figure out your markers for enterign and exiting the loop. :)

I like the Pennington course as presented.
Newbies will survive. Too short and too boring
means nobody will show up NEXT time. ....So,
I'm in. See ya Sat(3-21).
Remember, this way beats "honey do's".

1.3 L X 2.0 + Hoosiers = 2R. I'm in.

And I like Jerret's double loop course design. Gotta have a 2 loop or 2 lap course at PMS or it's way too short.

Well there goes my "no competition" trophy :lol:

Get it right, Jim. They're magic spinning triangles. :wink:

Just asking for a clarifacation here. If <140 equals R do tires at 140 equal a street tire? Like Toyo R888.

140 is a street tire.

139 is an R-comp.

So the Mini (GS) is in 2/2R. But the RX-8 (BS) is in 2/2R. I guess that's what I get for not going to the meeting.

The Toyo R888 is a 100 treadwear tire, the R1R is 140 and definitely a street tire.

This can't be the first time you regretted buying a Mini. Perhaps you should look for a 924S.

Nice!

I was thinking about a Miata.
