Got bored....did an Autocrossers Inc. event today. Basically club level SCCA. Strano, etc were there again. Drove like poop, but still won BSP. I think FTD (non cart) was Karwan again.

Where...What...When???

They don't really have a link. It is just walk-up registration at 8am.

James Wood High School
Winchester, VA

Last event they only had ~30 cars attend. I haven't run with them before, but there supposedly very fast, open, and long courses. I think you must run the morning and afternoon sessions with them though. Typically they are done around 2:30 though.

That's about all I know.....

This Sunday is out for me, sounds like fun though... Thanks for the heads-up.

I took 2nd place at ChapterFest! Final Results, #10 - Chapterfest 2010 - Sat 10-30-2010

You would have cleaned house Mike.

It really was a reminder of how talented some of the drivers with Capital Driving Club are.

The BMW guys...not so much.

Damnit.....Martell got FTD. We are usually very close and tend to go back and forth in terms of who is quicker. He co-drove my Z at Cumberland the last event.

I should have come, but I heard all kinds of negatives in terms of how it was run.

ResIpsa · 11-04-2010, 12:54 PM

Yeah, it was an absolute cluster f*ck.

The most poorly organized event that I have ever been to.

03threefiftyz · 11-16-2010, 11:17 PM

ZOMG a second 370z signed up for Saturday.......

Mike.

You will get to see my new homemade ply-wood splitter this weekend. The amount of front down force it creates is pretty incredible. On one of my first test runs around a familiar corner I almost spun out (however, the splitter was angled down much more than it should have been).

Even with the splitter perfectly level I think I will need to add a rear wing before I would feel comfortable taking it on a track day.

Next project on the winter list is a homemade rear diffuser. Let's see what I can do with some aluminum sheets and a rivet tool...

Not sure if that splitter will survive the Frederick lot....

I ran PCA (Porsche club) last week and almost took FTD... they made a 60 second course at Bowie....it was a lot of fun. FTD was 60.8 or so... I ran a 61.2 dirty and 61.5 clean. It was a good scrap. 1-12 were separated by a second. Also, ran really well at the CDC T&T....finished like 6th or so.

3rd time to Frederick this year....3rd time I broke the car there.....that place is cursed. Only 3 incidents (outside of driver) I had all year....

03threefiftyz · 11-21-2010, 09:54 PM

Fixed the broken seat rail on site this morning and ran in the 34's today....on the same course. Too bad it didn't really matter in terms of points.

Results are posted for Saturday on CDC.
