stay tuned for the Solo DL data, it actually ended up picking the full run (although I had to massage the data a bit due to the fact that the course looped through the start line)


so i'll have some usable info for you from all of your runs.

It's more technical, but as long as you're mentally there (I wasn't!) you'll be fine.

The BMW Trillium club has one this coming Saturday on the DDT. It's still an autoslalom, just on the track instead of a parking lot, and the course setup will take you way off the racing line a lot. It's not cheap though, about $130/driver, BUT it does include open lapping after the autoslalom finishes.
I'm not sure the exact cost but it's cheaper to just do the autox without the lapping at the end.

It's also Bimmercruise, a BMW car show, at the same time.

Maybe I'll see some of you there!

Are they actually allowing that this year? I thought they stated that there was no option for just autox or just lapping, only both? Makes it much easier to ensure costs are covered.

I know last year you could pick just autox, but I'm 99% sure they've changed it for this year.

I checked this morning. They have a price for both Autox and lapping combined, and another price for just lapping after the autox.

Member price is $100 for both and $80 for just lapping. Not sure what non-member price is but you're probably right with $130.

it's a custom built mount.. a plastic broom handle, some bolts and an old suction cup


I have the broom running in the middle of the car along the roofliner and the camera hangs off at about head level


I put it there specifically... it hangs exactly where my eyes would be if the car was a center-line-single-seater

Had I not blown the stop box I would've been 3rd in class instead of 3rd last, D'Oh!

Looks like I missed a good one. @7thgear I like all the data you posted over on casc. For someone like me who is focussing on driver development this year, sharing and participating in stuff like that would be awesome. Are you planning on attending the next PITL or TLMC event?
