Is the autocross at carlilse any good? Is there anywhere there to leave an open trailer with tires?

This is a fun little course set up in a small space and uses the existing paved 'roadways' in the back section of the fairgrounds which limits the setup.

Pretty much set as two short straights, each w/chicane (gate) and two 180 turns - drives like an extended oval. usually set up as a two laps.

In the past, we have held open practice runs and had coaches for beginners on Friday and then run competition runs on Sunday (using NCCC classification, although not as NCCC santioned event)

And - yes, usually on the day of the autocross the gate workers will let bring a small tire trailer in

There may be a course map on the Carlise Events web page - usually get a good event w/some serious competitors

Hope to see you there

Hi Mike, Yellow Z:
On occasion, I've brought my tire trailer in a day earlier and just left it sit. There have been years when one day was delegated to "practice runs", so you can can get on the course two days.
I normally put a pad lock on the tongue latch and park the trailer within sight of the AX course. AX is on Sunday? Practice Friday or Saturday?
If you plan on changing tires you can do it on the pavement strips or bring a thick piece of plywood for your jack.
