Default BMW 9-23 Brooksville

Just got the email about the 9-23 BMW autocross.
How do we sign up for that one? P.M. BAM?

Oh, I also wanted to ask if that 10-7-07 Z-hills autocross is Bmw Vs. Porsche ONLY? (Again, I saw it in the email.)

I have never been to an auto x event and id like to come check it out and see what its all about. Is there a list i need to sign up on just to spectate? Is there an entry fee id have to pay even if im just spectating? Thanks for any help.

I'm in for driving for team BMW either in my car (being one of the ten spots) or if you want to add me to the 318ti with you and Kris

Also please add us to the list for the 23rd.

Thanks Barry.

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.

nope No fee to come out and watch DSM, if you own a helmet , Bring it.. you can probably get a ride with an instructor. If you dont have a helmet we may be able to find you one.

Or you can bring out your car and enter it and get an instructor to ride with you , we usually get 8 to 10 runs so there is plenty of time to get it figured out.

I just need your full name , so you can PM or email it to me at autox@24hr.us

I didn't know you could get a Hired Gun, like Chi Town, to drive for a team at the BMW vs. PCA event.

I assumed the 10 non-club car times would not count.

I didn't realize that the 9/23 event was a BMW vs Porsche event. I am registered, but I won't be there if I must beg to drive someone's car. It didn't work last year, and I wouldn't expect it to work this year, either. I will definitely be there if I can drive my own car.

Barry, email sent in hopes of gaining entrance to the 9/23 event.

DSMboost97, if you want some info on autocross, come find me, and I'll help you however I can ... assuming there is a spot left for me.

Muddy Sorry I need to check with Ralph.
I am pretty sure the Nov event will be the contest. The one this month we will be trying out our new timing equipment.

either way, Muddy , Spin and the others that are always at our events can drive your own car.

Ill go send off replies from the Autox account..
