CLASSING

If you have not Autocrossed before or have limited experience please register as a "Novice" class so we can make sure we have enough instructors for everyone. As a novice we are not concerned about your vehicles class, but more about getting you off on the right foot, classing can come later on. In addition novices will get an extra run. (total of 5) You are welcome to register as a novice the entire season if you wish, and the last 4 events of the season we will be running a "Rookie" class and you will have the opportunity to compete for Rookie of the Year honors! If you are an experienced Autocrosser and just wish to register in your normal class for season points here are the default street classes for Camaros.

6th Gen
SS & LT V6 (both non 1LE) F-Street
LT I4T D-Street
1LE V8 A-Street
1LE V6 B-Street
ZL1 TBD

5th Gen
SS (all including 1LE) F-Street
All V6 models D-Street
Z/28 & ZL1 A-Street

These classes assume only modifications in accordance with SCCA Street Class rules. If you have other modifications and are a NON Novice I can help you with your cars classing, just send me a PM.

I hope you can join us, it will be a lot of fun.

Different courses for each day?!? Awesome! So how many runs do you think I will be able to get in if I go both days?

Sign up as a novice and you get 5 runs each day. Just make sure you sign up soon online registration will close in a few days. You are putting the good wheels and tires on right?

Oh yea! Swapping those back on and doing track alignment, brake fluid and diff fluid swap on Friday! I won't be able to make it up there on Friday like we talked about unfortunately. But it's on for Saturday and Sunday, trying to get my dad to come on Sunday as well and possibly co-drive.

Sounds like a good plan to me. Will see you there.

Then just come on down. You just need to sign a waiver at the gate and there will be someone there to take care of that when you arrive. Bring a chair, some sunscreen and maybe some snacks, and probably this weekend an umbrella. We can probably find some people willing to give you a ride along as well.

Fun run in the rain today. Gained on 4 out of 5 runs, but was still Capt. Slow. Next stop is Novice School.

Anyone got the copy of the pic of the 3 Gen6's together today?

Had a blast on Saturday even got to watch FNxR3DNECK enjoy the limits of his 1LE for the first time. He made HUGE GAINS considering it was his first ever Autocross! He was 6th out of 28 on Saturday!

I did manage to stay undefeated with my 3rd fastest Novice lap in as many events, although I had some very tough competition from a heavily modded 2008 Evo! My lap actually would have won A-Street if the almighty Mr. Danny Popp didn't crash the party!

Below is the link to the results and my fastest lap PDR footage.

That turn gave me trouble all day. It also made me botch all the clipping points after that. The whole finish of the lap got me almost every time. I think the car had a low 59 in it maybe even a 58 with a near perfect lap! I think at my skill level. I was capable on maybe touching high 59's but I never cleaned up the last part of my laps.

How fast were you going into that braking zone for the first tight hairpin?
