June 13th BRRSCCA Autox @ VA Tech

[DLingenfelter]

If you're located in the Blacksburg'ish southern part of the valley, or are bored out your mind and want to drive a long distance to race around a parkinglot full of cones there's an autocross this sunday on one of the Virginia Tech lots. If you go, park near the other 3 MM miata's there (black, blue, red, collect the whole set!)

Whee, I'll be there! Are you guys driving down Sunday morning or Saturday night and staying with someone?

[DLingenfelter]

I'm heading down Sunday morning. Probably pretty early too, gonna try to get there by 8:30, factor 2 hours to get there. I'm gonna try to get there early since it's a new-to-BRR lot and hopefully I can help if needed, or if somebody needs a hand changing tires.

Oh God, those tires (Dunlop DZ101's) are great on the road, but they suck for serious grip. Very greasy. Oh well, still had fun :thumbup:

Thanks for posting those, Dave!

Do I spot a Prius??? Haha I would have enjoyed seeing that!

[DLingenfelter]

There were actually two Prius's, the white one was lowered with V710's, and was dealing out asswhippings at 39mpg (he got a 60.0 something and thus whipped me too)

[Jake]

I got a ride-along in the white one, it was megaballin' for a Prius. Had a muffler delete, no hatch/backseat interior trim, TRD Corolla front & rear sway bars, and the V710 tires.
