please.

MattR · 2006-09-27, 06:58 PM

Hahahah Ridin Dirty.

sperry · 2006-09-27, 07:06 PM

The only issues I see are the proximity of "the hub converter" and "the people's elbow"... we'll have to becareful w/ the timing of the second car to make sure two people aren't driving towards each other through there.

Also, the finish points through the slalom, so if someone loses the brakes, they may be headed straight into the next car at the line if the starter isn't heads-up.

Other than that, I can't wait to drive it! It looks like there are lots of spots for line selection, which helps seperate the men from the boys, and lets people "color outside the lines" to better suit their car's handling.

Dean · 2006-09-27, 08:14 PM

Looking good.

I assumed the finish is out at the last pointer/gate. Plenty of time to shut down before the left.

Is the slalom optional, or forced?

Sunday, the lights would ahve to e out by the second to last cone unless you add runoff.

Don't forget to make sure you have a place for the bus.

MikeK · 2006-09-27, 08:15 PM

WTF the 5 sided octagon has 6 sides now!

Slalom is forced right.

We will look into all of the other comments made.

Thanks for the help.

Is there any work to be done out at the course on Thursday? The wife put a hold on my Friday. She said,"What this is becoming a three day thing now". Well I gave in and said no it will be two day event, so I'm out for Friday, sorry Tyson. I probably would have not been much help anyway.

tysonK · 2006-09-28, 06:17 AM

It's OK man. We'll need help taking down and all that crap also. Loading the bus on Sunday etc...

JonnydaJibba · 2006-09-28, 08:18 AM

You should call teh octagon teh sexagon instead.

MPREZIV · 2006-09-28, 09:48 AM

looking forward to trying to make myself sick through the "octagon"...

MattR · 2006-09-28, 10:44 AM

Or the seccsagon!

tysonK · 2006-09-28, 03:50 PM

peronally I like the hub convertor.

Dean · 2006-09-28, 03:56 PM

Since the weather should be nice, I will probably stick around in the afternoon Saturday and help out, etc.. Anybody want a instructor / co-driver for a couple laps in the afternoon? Depending on the number of runs we get, I could split it up between a couple people.

I could take each person through a lap as I drive, and then critique one of your laps as a passenger?

Just a thought if anybody is interested...

We could also do soemthing if we get fun runs...

Joeyy · 2006-09-28, 04:17 PM

I'll take you up on the instruction. It has been a few months and a couple events sense you last graced my passenger seat with your wisdom.

Pat R. · 2006-09-28, 04:51 PM

We are planning to have fun runs on Saturday.

MattR · 2006-09-28, 04:53 PM

Fun is ruining autocross

If I make it out (I am really trying, need to do a few things) I'll take you up on that too. I'll take all the help I can get.

Joeyy · 2006-09-29, 02:51 PM

Hey Cody, are you going to run that SM Cheese Wagon in October?

cody · 2006-09-29, 02:53 PM

That's the plan!
