Rain? We haven't seen anything significant (more than an hour) since may.

Added chevyluv7, volunteering for Friday's AM session! Thank you!

If we get sprinkles, we work with them. If it is hard rain, we wait it out. Lighting or severe weather we seek safe shelter. Based on recent Indiana weather or biggest concerns are hydration and sunburn.

Is there an image of the Auto-X course that could be posted? I'm interested in seeing the layout. This is my first time doing this and I don't want to embarrass myself by missing a corner or three.

camaro4mybday · 07-28-2012, 08:28 PM

due to a recent turn of events i will no longer be able to participate in the auto-x because there was a delay with getting my new tires and rims on my car till after the fest the current wheels on the car are not preferred for racing

There will be time to walk the course before cars run. Get there early before your run group!

It hasn't been designed or set up yet...

We are going to outline the course in chalk down both sides in addition to cones (so I was told, anyway) to aid novice drivers.

We will also have a few instructors to help new people get sorted out that can go for a ride with you.

Anyone working Saturday AM that would like to swap to a Saturday PM volunteer spot let me know, my wife and I are on opposite volunteer shifts and no longer need that to be the case.

AdamZ · 07-29-2012, 04:45 AM

I am out. I would be more than happy to help out though if needed.

I'll be at the site tomorrow. Rob, Dan Danny and others will be in shortly. We have a lot of ideas, but until you see the facility, lay out the idea as a course and drive it you don't really know if it works. We need a course that is FUN, SAFE, technically challenging and efficient. We have a LOT of drivers and we want to get as many runs in as possible. That means we need to target small areas where cones are at risk. Then we make sure we have a TEAM cover that corner. One chases / replaces cones while the other spots for the next car. If we can replace conces safekly on the fly we can run a lot more cars.

Long story short, as soon as we have a course set it will be posted here.
