[*insertusernamehere*]

Autocross in Verona (30 mins south of jmu). SCCA.

Saturday: Test and Tune

I'm 90% gonna be there on Sunday. And Tyler maybe? And Sam maybe?

Great automotive alternative for anyone not heading to the track. Come.

NASA weekend at VIR, can't make it

[Tyler.M]

I'm planning on going. I've never done AutoX before and I think I was born with the hand eye coordination of a whale, so I'm excited.

[Tyler.M]

Any idea how to pre-register? I tried to go through the site (that redirects to some other site) but it looks like registration isn't open yet. Wanted to get my spot booked soon, since I missed out on the Chilly-Cross.

:lol:

[Tyler.M]

Registered! It's a shame I have to skip VIR for this but I need to learn a few things before I do that. I'm just doing the test and tune on Saturday as of right now. I'm just gonna dip my toe in this, I'm not confident enough to sign up for points yet.

More seat time is more better...

Oh dangit. I won't be driving but I was gonna head down there Sunday to see whats up. Drive on Sunday instead.

Im not sure about a points challenge yet... Besides, I still need to build my compy!

Dude, it's literally the same event with the same course, but you get points versus not. Everyone sees your times for either day, results get posted on the internets for either day.

"Points Challenge" significantly overstates how serious at least 50% of people take an autocross. Don't worry about where you end up on the scoreboard, or even that there is a scoreboard, just drive both days and have fun like most people do.

[Tyler.M]

I probably would drivr both days if I didn't have my pc parts coming in this week.

[interfooler]

False. Times from test n tunes are not posted. Only the driver sees the time as he/she finishes the course That is the only log. Think of the timing as it is for "fun runs"

Also for test n tunes, you get significantly more runs than a regular points event

[Jake]

Oh, oops. Ether way, I don't understand the scared factor.

[interfooler]

I don't understand the scared factor.

+1 with either type of driving, a first timer is not going to do well, comparatively speaking. Just have fun either way. That's all that matters!

Hey. I'm not scared. I just don't want to spend all weekend there since I only get 1 day a week off now. I had to use a vacation day just to get Saturday.

Was looking forward to seeing you there Tyler. I ended up 2nd out of 69 on Sunday.
