    Ah ha! As I look closer… those are not your average 1-er and MINI.

    No on-site power that I know of at Marina. There is a charging station here though…

    Which cars are not showing up? Please provide year and model and any specifics you can to help us identify them.

    Thanks!

    ‘fraid not.

    I hear what you’re saying about the surface, but it’s excellent for exploring the concepts the CCC teaches. I’ve run my own car thru those exercises and autocross events and never had any paint chipping issues, if that’s what you’re concerned about. You will wear your tires, but that’s why you bought them, right?

    Share what you find out, will you? Mine is doing the same thing, but nothing was found during my last track day tech inspection. I know it’s not FCABs as those are new.

    Good question! We’ve always offered coaches, but this season we’re putting a little formality around it so we can better serve our participants.

    During online registration for the event you will choose your experience level as “first-timer.” At the event we’ll make sure you get a coach. We may give you one coach for your entire session or rotate thru a couple different coaches depending on how things go. We’re going to follow the example of our Car Control program where we try to mix it up with different instructors so you benefit from different teaching styles. Some people relate better to one person, so we’ll tailor the coaching to what’s working for you.

    Anyone wishing to have a coach may request one during registration too by answering yes to the “want a coach?” question. This will ensure I have enough coaches assigned for each run group and that everyone who wants one gets one.

    If you have not signed up for the March 3rd Car Control Clinic (CCC), seriously consider doing so. It’s an excellent way to learn car control and a great primer for what you’ll be doing at an autocross event. Several of us who autocross also teach for the CCC program.

    [quote=”buraddo” post=13]If anyone finds a decent deal on a helmet that is less bulky, I would love to hear about it.. With the damn sunroof I have very little clearance between the roof and helmet when in a normal seating position..[/quote]

    I have two, one open face 3/4, one full face. The full face is a bit lower profile and more comfortable. Both are HJC helmets.
