Default [RCG] Mar 6th auto-X

Okay, it's time to start thinking about the Mar 6th auto-X at Knight Stadium. First of all, who's going? Do we want to plan another cook out? So far we have two trophy winners that are in the points lead for their classes. Even if you don't want to race your Vette, come on out and ride along with one of us.

My bride and I are planning to be there, I really need the seat time.

I do have a question for you.

Are they running the PAX system in timing?

Yes sir. What class will you run in? The classes are a little different from the ones we used at Sanford last year.

I run Group II E in NCCC and BSP in SCCA, however, I am thinking I am going to try and run Novice, that way I will have a chance.

If they are using the PAX then Margaret will probably run BSP with the boys.

Looking at the times from the last event, the novices outran a lot of the regular classes. BSP was won by a BMW M3. I'm sure you're 3-4 seconds faster than me so you'll do well in BSP.

Coming up from Columbia, on I77, I think it's exit 88 (Gold hill Road), but just look for the big Baseball water tower on the right in Ft Mill, SC. It's where the Charlotte Knights Baseball Team plays. Once on the off ramp, turn right on to Gold Hill Rd and take your next right on to Deerfield Dr and that takes you to Knights Stadium. Ya com'in?

I'm hoping to make it out there on Sunday as well, just as a spectator. Hopefully I can ride along with someone during one of their runs!
