Maybe I can make it out to see what it's like. Not sure if I would run though.

Dude, I've done the "slow" autocrossing once. It was a riot. I'd love to make it out for this, but I've been putting miles on my car like crazy, and I'm thinking about taking a weekend off for once. Actually spend some time in the apartment I've spent so much money on.

What is "slow" autox?

Is this all time based or heads up in traffic?

Slow = SCCA 'Parking Lot Style', what Rice and Flo do all the time.

Don't confuse it for easy, it's REAL hard. You have to be VERY precise and all the power and handling in the world won't help u if you don't drive right.

**Sp00ner** · 08-17-2006, 11:34 PM

I'll be there the 26th...

100 octane, adjusted A/F ratio, mmmmm....

handyjoe · 08-18-2006, 07:30 AM

Yeah, I've done the parking lot autox...will be doing another on Sunday.

AFAIK, It's a time attack. At least the parking lot ones are. The ones Spoon is talking about may be different...? Not entirely sure.

I wasn't sure, I thought you had posted about cars pulling away from you and whatnot during races...maybe you just meant overall times. Do you guys ever do a multi-car race?

Big engines pull hard on LONG straights, SpOOner reels them in EVERYWHERE else.
