I'll just bullet list the good and bad of this event, if you really wan't to know more, ask! I could not recommend going to this event in the future.

The Good!
• Quite a few friendly people showed up to attend, from experienced to first timers

• The course was fun

The Bad...
• Incredibly disorganized.

• They promised staff to run the event, but clearly there wasn't enough.

• Staff that was present was quite condescending and consistently talked down upon those attending. ( Newcomers were made fun of for missing sections or becoming confused while on course )

• Timing equipment problems multiple times during the day

• Website promised prizes for top times. When asking staff about what's clearly written on the subiefest autox page ( many people asked ), attendees were laughed at and told, " not a chance ".

• Website promised different classes. No tech inspection was even attempted. Everyone was lumped into 1 big class.

This event was proposed on their website to be an actual competition, while offering friendliness toward newer drivers. Neither was achieved in my view.
