Default "Potential" Informal AutoX January 7th @ Mineral Wells

I have decided to try and have an informal AutoX at MW, on January 7th. We are not posting this on DLB, so if you are interested, you will have to RSVP me directly. If we get too many people interested, we'll have to make it an official Club event, but for now let's just see who is interested.

$25 per person for the track rental fee.

If you're in, send me an email to zrated167@yahoo.com

Thanks!

-Michael

PS: As of today, the forecast in MW for the 7th is 62 degrees and cloudy.

We have around 10 total right now, so it looks like it'll happen, as long as the weather cooperates.

Dang if Jake is going to show up at a "non-sponsored" event then I will have to show up as well.

Great!

If both of you guys would send an email to the address in my first post, that'd be awesome. I need to make sure I have all addresses, etc.

Thanks!

Oh yeah, I'm driving the Z.

Bummer, I am working that weekend. Going to try and move my days off around, we'll see. If not, you guys have a good time.

Michael (edit-Michael not Chris)
If I can make it, you can try on the square tire setup.

Default The Event is a GO!

The BMW van will be on location, on time, full of goodies such as cones, and timing equipment.

Please submit the $25 directly to me VIA PayPal at zrated167@yahoo.com so I can pay for the track, etc. I'm heading to MW on Friday, so please get your payment to me by Thursday, so we can add your name into the computer.

Thank you!!!

There's still a few days to register. Don't wait until the last minute. A day of racing for $25 isn't going to come around very often!

You guys have fun. Couldn't get off for this one. The konis did come in so I got them installed Thursday. Haven't had a chance to play much with them. But I can go from a nice soft ride to hard as a board. Should have some good control over the setup. Looking forward to playing more with them.

Be safe have fun

Scott,
We had a blast...4 of us showed up...Jake brought Corbin & Val (GF ) to the event....she did great. And we all had a blast on this course....very fast and long course...almost like a TT course.

I want to ride in your car when the next AutoX is scheduled...I want to see how they handle....I might have to copy your action. Your would have smoked this course !

Find my vid on the lounge.

Here are the results. They were originally an Excel file, converted to a PDF, so hopefully it works

Thanks to Jake, and Chris, for coming to another BMW event, and Corbin and Val for giving it their best!!!!!!
