registration ends at 930, which means 10am

 

Registration will be approximately 8:30-9:30am Sunday.

The course will be great! It was really good today, and the designer took a couple runs in the other direction (the way we'll be running Sunday) and said it was even better.

 

Oh, please don't do that! And if you do, don't bitch when we tell you that registration is closed and turn you away.

I just spent 11 hours at an autocross. Most of that time was spent working the event. It's generally thankless work. I'm not complaining, but if you're not going to do anything else to help, PLEASE show up on time for registration.

(sorry for the rant, it's been a long hot day... another one tomorrow)

 

Jeez, it was COOL here in Gainesville. Id say 60's most of the day.

 

The morning was WONDERFUL Saturday, absolutely perfect. Good cloud cover, temp around 70ish, light breeze, no rain. But we didn't actually start the event until 1pm (the Mini crew didn't want to show up early, so we scheduled registration to be from 11am-12pm) The sun started peeking out around 2pm and it got hot REAL quick.

But that's why we live in Florida, right? I'll take hot over cold any day.

 

damnit. i tried to wake up for today, but couldnt manage it. been a while since ive autocrossed. i miss all the sunriders people!

 

Wait till July or Augst events This is only March weather.

 

HAHA, I saw that coming from a mile away.
Next time go to bed earlier

 

you missed a fantastic day.... we got 7 runs in each.. the course was AWESOME.. and we finished at 2 pm.. plenty of times for fun run..

i didnt do fun runs as mine were all fun runs..hehe.. driftin the course in 2nd gear through the whole thing.. rar tires spinning all the time.. was SO much fun.. still managed a best of 45.31.. best time of day was in the 43's i think..

 

Well, compared to the eternal damnation of living in Kansas for 15 years (I still don't know why I didn't leave sooner), it's still better here. In July and August in KS, it gets EVEN HOTTER than it does here. Ever tried autocrossing in 107 degree weather with a constant 35mph wind sand-blasting you and blowing over your cones?

Moving cones does add an interesting element to the sport, however.
