SCCA Autocross Event 4/26

NOGO · 2nd-April-2009, 12:17 PM

I signed up for a SCCA autocross event at El Toro Marine Base on 4/26 to see how my Nova will do turning corners. Participation in the event requires you to work on 4/25 for a couple hours, but 4/26 is FREE!

Spectators are free if anyone wants to come out and watch. If you are interested in signing up let me know via PM- there are limited spots left so the sooner the better.

Good luck and have someone take lots of pix!

Thanks,

Ivan

Wow Bryan that sounds like a lot of fun, Any restrictions, Like what safety gear or roll bars are required??? Mine is totally stock, except sway bars and shocks, a little bit bigger than stock tires. Eric

Tech is the same as drag racing, but a Snell 95 helmet is required for everyone. You should pass no problem. Let me know if you want to go- even just to watch!

Im going to pass on this event, but i "really, really really" want to know if there will be another one coming up?
I need to take care of some other issues with my car first, Also will a Snell M2005 or SA2005 helmet pass? Thanks Eric.

Cool! Remeber Saturday is a work day only, and Sunday is race day.

I cant wait to put the Nova to the test!

bladeys · 22nd-April-2009, 12:31 PM

Well maybe I won't drive the ghia, I thought maybe some sneek runs might be possible. Otherwise I'll be in a red Tacoma.

I think we tech at 8am and start at 9am. Im sure the event will go deep into the afternoon- 4 or 5pm. I emailed the event coordinator but have not heard back for confirmation. Hopefully you can come by!
