If you are 6ft ish and can drive a manual, co drive in the hatchpile is available.

[FlaakCM]

I would like to attend. Need to check out scheduling.

Newb question: I noticed that it stated that it was a championship autocross, can anyone attend or is it limited to those in a championship points race?

[JustinG]

Open to anyone. They just say that to differentiate it from a test n tune.

[navin]

Do it Chris!

<- Wishes he was tall enough to drive the hatchpile.

[JustinG]

If someone can find me sliders and deliver its open to anyone to drive.

Hmmmmm I might come. I'll be home that weekend so I could possibly swing by to watch for a bit on my way back to campus.

[FlaakCM]

we have a birthday thing to go to for Grace's brother and dad that day. I'll have to miss this even but I will be at summit the following weekend.

Doesn't look like there's a lot of interest, but I thought I'd let you know Justin....it looks like Street Wars (which is my drag race) will be rained out on Friday. We will most likely have to reschedule it for Saturday. We'll have a Muscle Street race (bracket race for street legal cars only) and open test and tune (for everybody) from 12 to 5 on Saturday with gates opening at 10. I have no idea if you have any interest at all or if you'll even be driving down the day before the AutoX. But I just thought I'd let you know if you're curious to see how your car will do on the 1/4 mile.

thanks....I dont think anyone wants to see a 12X hp civic try and make it down a drag strip.

They would probably enjoy the lulz.

We've had a stock Kia Rio. We've seen it all.

[Beej]

What are the arrive and drive chances (never been to a NASA autox)?

I'm still figuring my realtor/looking-at-houses agenda out for this weekend, but if I don't have anything scheduled for the weekend, I'd like to show up for this.

[JustinG]

They don't turn away any walkups. Just don't show up 10 min before the drivers meeting, so they aren't rushed to get your info into the computer. I'd say show up at 10 or a lil before. If you do come look for the white hatch, Should be parked near the tent where registration is, or look for Dave in his Blue WRX hatch.

Gates open @ 8am
Reg & tech open @ 10am
Course walk @ 10:30am
Drivers meeting @ 11:00am
Heat 1 @ 12:00pm (heat 3 drivers work)
Heat 2 @ TBA (heat 1 drivers work)
Heat 3 @ TBA (heat 2 drivers work)
Cars off course by 5:30pm
Gates close @ 6:00pm

[FlaakCM]

Still wish I could make it.

[DavidL]

Can they guarantee the course wont be horrible?

Would be more interested then...

[JustinG]

No idea who is designing it this time. As small as my car is.......its never been a horrible course

[xvxax]

Whoa, David you going? Might be interested in that case... Man that's a hike of a drive.

[JustinG]

Hatch is still open for codrives.

Let me know if anyone else is going from NOVA. I would like to join and people are more than welcome to drive mine. I am not driving by myself down though.
