Autocross Rules Meeting

[AlfaEric]

If I would be more a of a nuisance, not being very experienced with the rules, would it be better for me to hold back and not come out this time, but wait until next year when I'll have a better understanding of whats going on?

Definately come out. I think it is more about giving suggestions on ways to improve the events than anything else.

Sounds good. I think Jimmy (Skunkman) and I will make the trip.

[hoyabmw]

I do?

---Eric

I had to write most of them in the first place!

Kevin

Oh, that input. Gotcha.

Does anyone else have suggestions?

---Eric

[woodym3]

No there isn't. There is a link to Classes and another for Results.

---Eric

Ok, you got me Eric. The link to Classes shows our classing and car preparation rules. I guess our rules for the conduct of an autocross are not in writing.

Some are, some aren't. I think some stuff might still be on the old website. For the most part, I think classes are the most important rules for us. I think we should probably add a introduction to autocross page (and a FAQs section). A simple page similar to our old one http://www.nccbmwcca.org/autocross/introduction.html .

If you guys need somebody to put this online, I'd be happy to help out with updating the site, and getting things on here that need to be on here.

I added an Introduction section to Autocross.

[Doby]

How about moving it to sometime in Jan?

[Biggins]

How about a NCC RallyCross? Maybe BMW of ______ could provide us with a few 330xi.

I'm sure many would be willing to rallycross their BMWs.

I think the main issue is simply writing/organizing all the information. Eventually I would like to add a FAQs section but I might just make that a thread and link it to the forum. I get a lot of email questions.

We can discuss that at the December meeting. I'll make sure Pete puts it on the agenda. j/k

I would prefer to get it done asap so I can work on next season's registration system. If I don't have enough time to work on it then we are going to be stuck with the current system where nothing is automated.

I added an Introduction section to Autocross.

Thanks Steven. We will probably have a new version of that after the meeting. I would like to keep that page as brief/simple as possible yet link to additional information. I would add a link to the "What to bring to an autocross" thread, a link to a FAQ page (that will need to eventually be written), maybe a link to a couple old course maps so people get an idea of what to expect, etc...

I'd be happy to work on organization of the information, etc. If there's anything I'd be able to do to contribute, I'd be more than happy to. Also, I'd prefer the meeting stay when it is.

Great! We can always use more help. We can get together at the meeting and figure out what still needs to be done.
