OG Racing in Sterling, VA

Kate's best run followed by her wettest run (she talks a lot more than I do):

Noel you looked mighty impressive in the white S2000 in the rain. Easily the most aggressive of anyone out there in the last couple runs but looked to be in complete control.

I'd like to thank the...

The difference is in the intent. An occasional spin, a missed gate, etc are mistakes. When you see the Jag make a cloud looping it exiting the first turn and doing the same thing at the other end of...

You've got good HP and good gearing (there was one stretch where I was just touching the MX5's rev limiter). If you did I wouldn't be surprised.

Low 32s. Maybe even 32.1 I think.

Here's Kate's best run, 35.091, which was 5th best out of 16 drivers in X4

Love the quick turnaround with the results. Course was good considering what we had to deal with.

I think the club needs to be a little more proactive when it comes to calming down/parking...

From my point of view a good time was had by all, mostly because the rain just buzzed us a little. It could have been a lot worse, I saw some very wet roads not too far from the stadium on the...

If you don't mind a freakin heavy steel jack, I can bring my low-profile Craftsman that I keep as a backup.

We had a decent day despite the conditions. I made more of a blooper reel rather than something to be proud of, but I was driving an unfamiliar car that had an itchy trigger finger that bit me a...

No cost to watch, but you'll have to sign the insurance waiver on your way in. But if you're coming anyway, why not participate?

I got to drive the Oxspeed Mini convertible for a run on the big course. Wow!

FWIW here's my fastest clean (I hope!) run on the big course from the afternoon, a 47.4XX

Love the picture of Captain Slow in mid-cone-knocking-over! I know us instructors killed a lot of cones in the afternoon, hope the students didn't look at each other at the time and ask each other...

Is this just for karts or a reversal of what was posted recently where the membership requirement was scrapped?

My helmet came from saferacer.com - I guessed at the size and dumb-lucked into a helmet with a good fit at cheap money. If I was starting over today, I wouldn't get one without having the opportunity...

Not sure about how prices stack up, but a trip to OG Racing (http://www.ogracing.com) in Sterling VA will be a good place to start.

Cooler with lots of drinks is a must!

We bring so much crap that we usually show up to an event with the autocross car and a support vehicle.

Is there a family plan available or do hubby and wifey sign up individually? Couldn't figure that out in the various schpiels.

How about an "adopt a newbie" program. An experienced person can volunteer to have a first-timer basically shadow him throughout the day: show the newbie how to empty out the car, get it through...

We had a heck of a season, only real regret was a ton of schedule conflicts meant I only did one BMW event while the missus did two.

Off season? Would love to get another set of wheels & tires...

Hate missing Waldorf events, but we'll be well on our way to Nationals by the time Saturday rolls around.

It was the same for the first half of morning runs. I tried making a cone call the SCCA way: "Control, this is station three" but never got a response to that. So I made the cone call, still more...

Me and Kate were working that far corner and saw the Camry a few times. It looked like a mom and her teenage son on his first driving lesson. I didn't think they got terribly close to the course and...
