Mercedes does all of their autocrosses at James Wood. I do a few each year, though the schedule's not working out this year too well. You should check their schedule and try one.

I think Old Dominion is a new venue for us. I know we haven't been there the last couple years. It doesn't look a particularly large site, so maybe Sam can build a little more "tightness" into...

Just PM him here ("Adam"). He usually notices new PM's within a week or two :tongue:

Hey Gerry. I'm not sure about Memorial Day (again), but I'm in for the NOC club race school on April 1st :cool: Also, Mid-Ohio is definitely my favorite track of the eight I've driven,...

Tim, Manassas is 60 miles closer to you than Cumberland, and only 9 miles farther than Waldorf. An extra 10 min each way is a deal-breaker?

If you've never done Cumberland, it's well worth...

I'm going to try racing. The car is slowly being transformed. I do plan to at least bring it to the AX school.


Just for fun, here's footage from Anders Skandsen's first ever race last...

Understood. Manassas events look good to me because they're "only" 55 miles away. As for Waldorf, that 190 mile R/T always kind of sucked (Bowie was 170 R/T). I'm actually 5 miles closer to...

AJ, according to my internet, Ellicott City is actually closer the Manassas site than it is to the Waldorf site. Are you still in Ellicot City?

Are we going to try to give any preference to true novices? At the one I did two years ago, I think one event was the most experience anyone had, and that was mostly because it was scheduled after...

Those people probably just bought real easy to drive cars. Cheaters.

Hey Woody, I'm looking for a new challenge. Want to co-drive my 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid sedan this season? :tongue: ...

RRT moved from the ST 328 to a GS M3? Are you going down for this?

Not just my first run, but the first of the entire event :biggrin:

Yeah, there's no way that run was completely legit. I don't think I was off course, but something was wrong. The run was...

The pink/yellow things aren't great clues. He co-drives his blue M3-looking 328 with Chris Higgins, so if you ever worked their heat, it would seem like they do a dozen runs. Also, his...

Good job guys. I wish I'd known about this one. It could have been more fun than cleaning the garage :(

"OFF" means the driver missed some part of the course. "DNF" usually means hit cones in the stop box. In both cases, the run doesn't count. The 540i guy definitely seemed to have trouble...

Look at these and tell me if you can use them. The source video is HD. My internet connection is devastatingly awful (combo of hughesnet sat and Sprint 3g :frown:), but I can try to upload...

FWIW, I can't stand when I look at CDC results and all I get are a bunch of screen names. I much prefer when orgs do real names.

I didn't drive in the AX yesterday (working Street Survival), but now I wish I had. It looked like a "who could plow the least around the skidpad" course from where I was watching. Slow and tight...

That would look very cool. If I didn't have to be there early, I'd consider meeting up. My old 95 M3 doesn't fit in very well in a lineup of newer cars, though :frown:

Unfortunately, what I...

:cool: First "legit" FTD (not my fault some modified guys didn't show).

Also, I really liked that course. I've grown to like the "courses an E30 will love" from Sam, but stuff like the...

Keep refreshing...

Waiting for the results to see if it was clean. Adam said he had a 46.6 in the second half of the AM heat. We normally run very close, so it seems that maybe today the PM temps didn't make as...

Another good event. I liked the course layout, and like everyone else I struggled with grip a little. My car also didn't care for the bumpiness, which I don't remember being an issue there in...

Did I need to put a smiley there? :wink: I liked the course. I was a little slow to warm up to your courses simply because they were short, time-wise, but now I'm definitely a fan.


...

How did we get to the point where someone doing a little drifting feels like he's under attack?

I didn't see any problem with what you were doing, nothing offensive. There were some others...
