Re: Post Chilhowee Event...
WOW !!!,2days of AX. Special thanks to Sean for the drive. Harp ran a great event. John brown provided very useful car setup info even if we did ask at the last minute. And getting to run the challenge at the last minute was great,ran my fastest lap of the day. Not bad for being on 380"s and same for Sean's driving too !!! OH DID Doug get home ok with the grocery getter ?

Re: Post Chilhowee Event...
good event! course was just beginning to dry up when the radiator end blew off. Luckily it was at the finish line and didnt soak the course. Dont worry, Dave, I dont blame you; I would rather it let go at an autocross event than in the fast lane of the interstate.

+1 to a fun course and a fun weekend.
Good to see some folks out there who haven't been around in a while.

Isaac, the "live timing" is just showing the people that ran in the 2nd heat. We will have final results in a day or so that will include everyone along with an overall list for indexed times and raw times.

Re: Post Chilhowee Event...
Agreed! I had a blast yesterday and today, especially since I drove two different cars. Just wish I could've kept the streak alive and beaten the owner in his own car today.Wheelman_13 wrote:+1 to a fun course and a fun weekend.

Hopefully I'll have some video up soon.

Re: Post Chilhowee Event...
Great event. I will be honest, when I saw the course online I was a little dismayed at the lot. I am so glad I came. I loved the elevation changes. The course was perfect. I am surprised though that after event the corner 2 workers told me that during the initial runs we were two left tires in the air at the left going back into the cross over. So who is this Cathers guys!!! Seriously, you need to get your butt to a tour event in Marcus' Miata. You have roasted lately some very serious heavy hitters in AutoX.

Re: Post Chilhowee Event...
Results are up. Thanks to everyone that lent a hand and to Dave Yoder for MONTHS of legwork on this.
The course turned out better than I expected. The crossover is tough to deal with, but without some of the spectator and ride along constraints, I think we could do some pretty cool stuff there.
I'd like to try the team event again sometime. I think it was a fun gimmick, but there are some things that I could do to make it closer competition....although they would add some complexity.
I am very happy that so many people came out for both days.
Question - would you run another event on this lot if there was the opportunity?

I had fun knocking the cob webs off the ole CMod car. Thanks Dave, sponsors and everyone who helped make this event happen.
My last run today sure seemed faster than 105 seconds.. I know I'm slow, but DAMN 3 times what it should have been?

Re: Post Chilhowee Event...
Fun event. I like any kind of challenge type event, but I think the big problem with this particular format is that it was hard to remember who was on your team, so you basically took 2 runs, then hoped you were on the winning team.
