OK so who's going and which days? I thought it was a single fee for both days, but it looks to be two separate events with a fee for each. So who's doing which day?

Eric,

I heard that Sat has a better chance of rain than Sunday...so this could help others out.

I would say Sunday for the AX.....although i would rather do the TT's.

Where is Scott, Pat, Chris, Adam, Damon ?

Working. I hope I can get out to the BMW ax next month but that's wait and see for me. Doesn't look like the BMW track weekend is going to work out either. Bummed

If they give more than 8 runs for sure, I'm going to MW with PCA. If not, then I'm probably going to the event with NTAX since it'll cut about 2 hours of extra driving.

So who's actually dead set on going to the PCA event -- Chris and Eric?

I don't give a damn lol. Pca does 10 runs i believe. We got 12 at the last tt. Ntaxs does 8 runs. Both are the same price i believe so do we want the longer drive for two extra runs and also longer runs or the shorter drive for the 8 shorter runs?

I looked at the course map that Jerret posted earlier. You'd have to tie it together and allow me to make two laps per run to even make it fun. Looks way too small/short. I'm gonna have to say PCA @ MW. Now which day? Chris says rain on TT Saturday. AutoX Sunday then?

Does PCA usually post up their course map in advance?

I have to agree on this one.

Chris, i think it normally gets posted on dfw autox page on Facebook. I have a feeling Jarret is normally the one to do that though.

I'm in for the AutoX on Sunday.

We can try for the TT''s on Sat and hope that it doesn't rain....but it looks like there can be a chance of rain on Sunday as well.

Do we get a refund if it's rained out?

Tracks don't let you run in the rain, but I'm not sure about TTs at Mineral Wells. You run rain or shine for autox, though, unless there's a risk of getting struck by lightning.

I've only been to 1 event where it pretty much rained during most of my runs, but it was one of the more interesting autox experience.

I remember running autoX in the rain at TMS in April and don't care to do that again.

Meh shouldn't be as bad at mw though if it rains. Tms is sealed asphalt so its slicker than shiet when its wet.

I wouldn't mind racing in the rain, as long as we don't have to keep our windows down or pick up cones.
