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.

There is a schedule of events of how this autox will be run so it won't be the regular autox style.

The course should be good, its been said that someone got hold of the course maps from nationals. lol

I had a blast out there!! thanks all for putting up the event. Great course and I love how many runs we got. I think I had about 18, and I know my buddy Dave in the Exige had at least 20. I've never left an autocross event where I simply didn't want any more runs, lol.

Heres a video of one of my runs in the Miata:

Your spec Miata is nice. Gald you brought it out.

Thanks for coming out. It was a little different not having course workers so thank you to everyone who ran for cones.

I had a really great time as well. I loved the sweepers. I dared myself not to brake from the start all the way to the turn around and did it. That was fun.

I am sure the club will be doing this again. I hope to see more people out.
