Chicago Area High Speed AX on Aug 26th at Blackhawk Farms

Like to drive your street car fast?

The Sports Car Club of Rockford is hosting a High Speed Autocross on a 2 mile long racetrack (Blackhawk Farms, South Beloit, IL) on Saturday August 26th, 2006 and EVERYONE is welcome to participate.

Most people only need to bring their car, an approved helmet and the entry fee to have fun with your car all day. Some cars may require a racing harness or if you have a convertible, a roll bar too. Our safety requirements have recently been updated so easily find the safety requirements and your car classification at: http://autocross.mcscc.org/safety/harness01.php

Entry fee is only $99 for members of Midwestern Council and $125 for non-members. You don't have to pre-pay to pre-register and you can pre-register via FAX or online. Surf on over to http://autocross.mcscc.org for more details on what we do or contact AUTOCROSS@mcscc.org.

Hope to see you at the track

Steve

Why is it you're the only Redline at our events?

There's one guy up here in Calgary (oddly enough, he also has a red Redline) and he keeps tyring to get us other guys to try the autocross too. Main reason I don't want to do it, I'll just end up killing the pylons. Since he's been pushing us though, I have entertained the idea of riding along with him a few times to see how hard it is. Who knows, maybe by the end of the year I'll give it a shot.

Until then, I'll keep hitting the 1320'.

This is different, this is the road course racing I do. They call it autox as well... this stuff is where it's at!

So..... the red ones are better?

Sorry for the thread jack but I had too put it out. The molecular bonding of the other paints create too much parasitic drag. Red paint, on the other hand, doesnt. Hence why reds faster!
