NASA-MA AutoX @ VMP, Jan. 15th - JustinG - 12-27-2011

January 15th @ VMP
Come on out folks, this will not be a points race, last I was told at least. So come out to have some fun and try out all those new go fast parts Santa brought you.
This is going to be the first try for MM providing coffee and donuts/muffins/etc as a fund raiser. We need a descent MM presence at this event. So come on out, we will need folks to man the table with the coffee and eats. Anyone who would like to donate money to purchase the goods just shoot me a PM, although I doubt it will be bad as far as initial cost.

I will be there. I will be codriving so please let me know if you need me to bring anything as I will not be bringing my regular stuff.

I can certainly be there to help out. I will attempt to get the miata to a somewhat running condition. Looking forward to this. :thumbup:
Re: NASA-MA AutoX @ VMP, Jan. 15th - Goodspeed - 12-27-2011
Depending on the weather I may come out. I put the Miata down for winter storage after Thanksgiving and got punked with this weather/lack of snow
If it keeps up I might have to dig it back out.

Looks like I'm co-driving the hatchpile and shuttling Justin's XJ to/from VMP to do the coffee thing. I have a 12-cup coffee pot that I can bring if we need it.

No need for the XJ just to do the coffee, that stuff can fit in the hatchpile, if we start to do lunch then the XJ will be brought into service.

Perrrfect.

Did you guys think about buying boxes of joe from dunkin doughnuts? Fairly cheap and you can still make a profit on it. I know we have used them for fundraisers for sporting events and it was a big hit.

Fence. I'm a little confused as to how this works (never auto-x'ed in the cold), so say you have tires that aren't happy below 40 degrees - do you just say fug it and run? I highly doubt they'd get enough heat in them to "work".

Your tires dont get good grip till between 120 and 180 degrees anyway. So instead of heating them up from 80 to 120 your heating them from 40-120.
A codriver will be more than enough to heat them up, or short time between sessions.

That's usually my overall strategy for autocross anyway :thumbup:

I guess I should register for this.
Re: NASA-MA AutoX @ VMP, Jan. 15th - ButtDyno - 01-10-2012
I'm in with the Evo. I am having vague flashbacks to .RJ running events at VMP back in the day
