Default SCCA Autocross @ Ft. Devens MA

Hello all.
Sorry for the late notification, but I was asked to be the Operating Steward at the SCCA autocross tomorrow at Ft. Devens.

If anyone has already signed up, see you there.

Feel free to stop by and say hello.

BTW at the last autocross there were no entries is either AS, ASP or BSP, so basically your just about guaranteed to go home with a trophy for just showing up!

Was just at an autox there today (Saturday) by the Mustang club.
Course covered the entire area, was very fast, and the quick Corvettes were about 120 seconds to do a run.
We had 3 practice runs in the morning and 5 "official" runs in the afternoon.
Course was about 1.6 miles long.

You're in trouble next year George. They're giving us old guys a senior citizen's discount of 2 seconds per run...

Maybe we'll just give you guys those big "curb feelers".

Hopefully you'll take this as a compliment but it was a personal autocross milestone for me to beat you AND Paul today since you guys have always run so much quicker than me..

wish I knew, I would have drove out.

The SCCA event was great

The fastest time for a street car was set by Grant Reeve in a stock Z06.

There was also a forum member, I didn't get his handle, in his Polo Green C4.

I'll post pics/vids later

Hey, we have a guy from CT we'll trade, to get you back! :>)

Thinking of running the rally again next spring. Good reason for you to make a trip out this way...maybe we can do it on the same weekend as an autox at Ft. Devens.
