It's a busy spring. March has an event every weekend including BMW, PCA, NTAXS, Texas Time Trials, a national tour and a pro-solo. Equipe Rapide will be having our next event on April 3rd in Mineral Wells. I hope to see all of you out there. Paul Kurtz has volunteered to be the event master. I would love for some of you to step up and volunteer to be event master for a future event. You can see our schdule on our website and see the entire calendar on dfwautocross.
Thanks,
My first thought was "wow... Thursday AX. Sweet!"

So, what's the Mineral Wells equivalent to Pennington's Einstein's?
The McDonald's off exit 418 on I-20, west of Fort Worth and the I-20/I-30 merge.Quote:

Online registration is open. It will close at midnight Friday night. I have it on good authority that the weather will be perfect on Sunday. If you missed the Pro or want to validate your recent performances then come on out. This is an excellent event for you to get good practice for the upcoming events including the Natinal street tire challenge and the divisional. I hope to see you all out there and thanks for supporting Equipe Rapide.
Unfortunately I will miss this one. Too bad for me.
Five more days counting today. Busy week for me. Anybody else scrambling to get everything done this week?
We will be there.
Online registration ends tonight at midnight.
We are also looking for a volunteer to tow the trailer from Pennington to Mineral Wells. If you are interested then please PM me or e-mail me at [email protected].
Looks like I'm out... sprained my ankle pretty badly on Wednesday, today I've got crutches and an air cast. Changing tires and standing around a parking lot don't sound great, and driving a stick shift isn't so easy either. Hope everyone has fun!!!
JRJ... you can hold onto my t-shirt from last time for a bit longer, or I can meet up with you sometime. Thanks!

Without trying to sound harsh or ungrateful. The course had some interesting elements to it. And while it was certainly challenging. I didn't find it particularly rewarding. Nor did it seem to flow well. Also, can we please not have any slow heavy sweepers across the "cheese grater" sections of the site?
The good points?
Nice choice of line selection
High speed sections
I'm not about everyone else. But I think the course in reverse would have been much more enjoyable. No one wants the last 5 corners to be castration events, especially when they lead into a similar finish.
I think we just found an event master for May 29th.
Lol, I'd love to! But, I'll be in Lincoln.
I hated it. Everything about it, especially the hard left after the downhill slalom. DFL, FTL.
I really enjoyed the course. The higher speed transitions were fun. I thought it flowed well for the most part. If there is any one part I would have changed it would be the finish. It's more fun when you can finish a course with a little speed.
I also really enjoyed the course, the weather was great!
