I dunno, I think The Sleeper will tell you I just yell "faster, faster, faster," until you spin the car.

My fellow autoxers might consider the pro-solo in Farmington. It is a drive, but a pro solo is worth is.

The format is basically simple. You arein three run groups , twice Saturday and once Sunday. The top finishers go into the Super Challenge. There is also a bonus challenge for some of the schlubs, determined by a ticket drawing, and a Ladies Challenge.

For each run group, you get four back to back runs, one on left course, one on the right course. Your time for the event is your best time on both courses added together.

The start is a drag race start, right into an autox course. It is beyond belief exciting.

NASA AZ event this weekend at Bondurant West as well. I'll be out both days, and have a passenger seat open if anyone wants a ride.

Managed to hustle my car into the garage last night after leaving work a bit early, its a bit dirty but not bad at all. I got lucky I managed to get home before the rain and shenanigans started up.

The only thing I really recommend you swap on a bone stock car is the brake fluid so you dont boilover.

That will be fine for your 1st time. You dont need to worry about laptimes day1, just try and find the lines.

As you get more time in the seat you will feel more comfy tossing the car across the track.

come out and play! I will be there sunday
