BRSCCA autocross roanoke civic center

[HAULN-SS]

Hey has anyone ever done this event before? Anyone going to? My buddy is coming up from GA coincidentally that same weekend with his brand new EVO.

We're thinking about both going for our first autocross.

What's the low-down on how that works, and how late can you typically sign up? Should we just do fun runs? Any pointers? I still have a full face helmet - should that suffice?

[SlimKlim]

I've done the Salem autocross but not the Civic center ones. Those are my old stomping grounds, I used to drive past the Civic center every day on my way home.

You can't just do fun runs to my knowledge, you sign up for the event, fun runs are optional afterwards if they have time.

Lots of times you can just walk up and sign up unless it's already full, you should be able to preregister online though. Full face helmet is fine, it might have to be under a certain age though, i think they checked the sticker on mine last time I did one.

I don't know if it was BRRSCCA that I ran with at Roanoke, but I've run that lot before... It's not super great, but for a first time you'll have fun for sure. And yes, whatever full face helmet you have will probably do. It's easy to sign up, registration's right here:

Tell me if you sign up and maybe I'll do so as well. Need to find an i3.... :mrgreen:

[HAULN-SS]

So you'd just want to run one day?

This here says "event #4 and event #5"

so i guess it'd probably work best for me to just do the saturday event

Also for classing I'm assuming novice?

[HAULN-SS]

Ok - found this <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://scca.cdn.racersites.com/prod/assets/2014%20Solo%20Rules%20Book%207%20w%20cover%20and%20links.pdf">http://scca.cdn.racersites.com/prod/ass ... 0links.pdf</a><!-- m --> which had a listing for the class, but i left it as novice..so did my buddy who's definitely in as well.

[BLINGMW]

I'm a little out of date on classing, but yes, novice should be fine. What day you signing up for? I might have somthing else going on on the 14th, which may or may not conflict, but 15th should be open. I guess I could run our E46 in D-stock :dunno:

[HAULN-SS]

signed up for the 14th. if I have time might could do the 15th, but I gotta drive back to WV that day too. also who is adam flint? someone from MM is signed up

[BLINGMW]

flintster55, lives around here, he has a WRX last time I checked

[flintster55]

Yep I will be attending both days for sure. The lot is actually pretty good, a little on the smaller side, but the pavement is relatively smooth and flat compared to some of the other lots like Verona.

I might already have a co-driver both days, but I will confirm that in the next week or so. So if not, Channing you are welcome to co-drive the STi on Sunday if you would rather not run the E46.

Looking forward to seeing you guys out there!

[HAULN-SS]

Chan you sign up for this?

[BLINGMW]

Chan you sign up for this?

I haven't, but are you just doing Saturday? If so I'll just come hang for a bit and say hi before lunch, I cannot be there the whole day. Can do Sunday though if you're going to run then too.

[HAULN-SS]

Just doing Saturday I think
