Just wanted to let anybody that may be interested in Autocrossing. The Chicago Region SCCA is holding their annual autocross school April 4-5. If you ever wanted to try autocross, this is a great way to try it out.

The school is at RT66 Raceway in Joliet Il. Details at

This is a great school. I attended it back in it's infancy (1979) and have since been an instructor (back in the 1980's). A novice will pickup a years worth of experience in one weekend. Slots are limited so don't wait to sign up.

 

22 spots open as of now to my knowledge.

Weather looks decent for at least one of the days (hope we get a better forecast closer to the weekend):
Saturday - Partly cloudy. Highs in the mid 50s and lows in the upper 30s.
Sunday - Cloudy with rain. Highs in the low 50s and lows in the mid 30s.
Dress accordingly if you're planning on attending. I'd recommend a good wind breaker among the line up.
