Default Now that was FUN!

I just got done spending the day with Maverick Porsche Club learning how to do high(er) speed autocross. The whole event is 2 days, including teaching and running, but I only signed up for the teaching part. It was extremely well planned and run. The $45 included water, soda and lunch and a LOT of track time. I have been doing autocross for over a year and found this group to be definitely recommendable!!

I have a flyer for an event on 5/6. Local SCCA chapter is putting it on. It's on a saturday and the entry gets you in the autox the next day as well. Some of the top notch autox drivers will be there and will ride with you and critique. Did it a couple years ago and it was a good time.

No where near as cool as the PCA event, I would guess, as it's on a tight low speed course, but still a good learning experience.

There is also a ROVAL event the same weekend at TMS. Probably much more fun.
