Default April 1st Gainesville Int'l Raceway autocross

Who's going?

I'll be at work until about 1am Saturday night, so I may not be there first thing.

As always, we could use some extra help around 7am setting up!

I'm sure someone from Canada drag raced there once... And wasn't there a Dutch guy at the autocross last time? Erik?

Registration and info at http://www.cfrsolo2.com/. Gainesville costs us a little more to rent, so the cost is $25 for SCCA Members and $35 for non-SCCA Members.

If you haven't been to a Gainesville autocross before, it's worth a try! We use the mini-road course with as few cones as possible, so it's a little different from your usual autocross layout.

Happy to hear it is back out on the road course. Will this continue the rest of the season?

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
