    According to their website, it's $25 for non-members and $20 for members.

    How does ER work -- like SCCA where you run 4 or 5 runs with about 10-15 minutes between each run or like the BMW club where you run back to back?

    Like SCCA. You'll do two runs (or three, if you sign up for RapidePax) in each of two heats, but they'll run all of the cars in a heat through once before anyone does a second run.

    Unless you own a Mod car. Then you just run whenever you feel like it.

    So true!!!!!!!
    What's left of a '96 Miata with stock clutch.
    My car exceeds my driving ability. That's the only possible explanation.

    That was a fun and fast course (not very technical). Very few cones were knocked over all day. Nice to see everyone as usual. There was a huge turn-out for Street Tire! 15 entries...that was ~1/4 of the entire event turnout.

    POS took 1st in CS. Mark52 took 1st in CSP. Robert J. took 2nd in Street Tire, lost216 was 3rd, I was 4th and Kestrel took 5th to round out the trophies.

    Absolutely!!!!!

    When you work before the event, during the event as needed, and after the event you run whenever you want. Try it! You might like it.

    Or have 2 other co-drivers and to get all of your runs in you have to spread it out over the whole event.

    Mod Drivers are a selected few. We are Special. Just ask us.

    We even converted a Miata driver over to the Dark side. Whose Next????

    I had a lot of fun out there Sunday after a almost 9 month break.
    On my first run, I lifted right after the first slalom..(slight mistake) taking out 4 cones with a big powerslide.

    The rest of my runs slightly improved, but I could not get below 40 seconds.
    No more Miata

    Not bad for FitBoy's first event! I had to tell him what to do when we were working the corner and had to red flag Mr. Hollinsworth because FitBoy was running toward a cone right in front of the Vette

    A cardboard box with LOTS of body roll! The blue painters tape racing stripe was purdy too.
