Default Hawthorne hype thread!

The autocross of the decade is less than 2 weeks away...Are you ready?

Here's what your tires have to look forward to... Gravel stage maybe?

Oh, it is not that bad... It's pretty much like Winnemucca just was. We are not using the really bad section.

You are right, however, that picture was taken in a bad section that we will be using.

Yahoo Yellow Pages!

The whole town is 3 or 4 blocks long, so everything is close. I stayed somewhere else one year but don't remember where.

Somebody pick a pace so you can at least be together.

Sorry, no arranged rates. AAA, or other discounts might be available. From the Yahoo list, you want the stuff at the bottom, not the lame "sponsored links" at the top...

Sorry, no reccomendations of one over the other...

I just made reservations for Matt and I at Best Inn & Suites. It's just down the road from El Capitan, and sounds pretty nice. I tried Sand N Sage Motel, but it was booked.

Unfortunately Best Inn is $75/night for a 2 bed room, so that's like twice El Capitan with the SCCA discount.

It would certainly help with the price to have a 3rd in there!
