I don't disagree about traffic. However, remember that there is a Fuddruckers inside Andretti.

 

Six I think. I am hoping White05 will sign up too. Also, Lego has not signed up yet... I'll PM him and remind him that this region is preregister online only.

 

Reminder to Lego, White05 and Win Blue....

Take time to register for the autocross ASAP...

 

Do I have to call them to schedule a slot? Price?

 

Nope, just show up. We have a running count on who is going, but there are a couple of non-8's coming too. So who knows how many there will be in the end.

Edit: Sorry I forgot to mention price. $50, 3 pulls.

 

I have such a device.

 

Cool, glad someone has one. I have not made the leap as of yet.

So far the weather looks good for Sunday. 10% chance of rain, so let's hope it stays that way. I am antsy as hell waiting for this weekend to get here.

 

Guys, I am afraid I am going to have to duck out on the Dyno day. I am being given the opportunity to do an Autox novice school and am going to take it before I get past the allowable "age" in the sport.

It will finish at 5:00 and I will have my cell phone handy so please feel free to ring me about andrettis that night. Trhoads... I'll shoot you a PM with my cell# so we can all hook up again at Andrettis.

 

if you want to autocross this weekend as a novice and have not signed up yet, stop reading this and do so now... (White05 & Lego)

Seriously, there are only a few slots left. Please do it now....



On a side note, here is what to bring/what to do:
Helmet (or cap for the loaners like you wore at Andrettis)
Something to eat & something to drink
Tire pressure guage
Comfy shoes & race shoes
Cap
Sunscreen
some tape (painters tape is agood choice)
$35 cash
Drivers license
----------------
Get all the loose items out of your car, including the floormats.
When you arrive, find the tech station and go through tech.
Sign in and get your work assignment
Don't walk in grid unless you are racing
Listen for the announcements about the Novice Meeting and go. Even if you aren't in novice. PAY CLOSE ATTENTION.
Walk the course as much as you can...
Anticipate how long it is before you race and warm the car up. Don't jsut get in and start and race an instant later.
Take your first one or two laps intentionally slow and memorize the course.
You only get 4 runs, so make the last two or three count!


Tips:
Get there early and try to memorize the course.
Tighten your seatbelt by fastening, grasping, unfastening, twisting 3 times and fastening again (should be very snug then).
If you feel you need some assistance, find someone that looks like they are in charge and have them find someone to ride with you.
Watch other drivers, some folks out there are amazingly good.
Enjoy the heck out of it...

 

So far these are who I can tell are going to the Dyno Day. Add your name if you are not on there, and take it off if you can't make it. Is meeting for breakfast @ 7:30 still the plan for everyone?

I attached a map for the location of Dynolab.


5-21 Dyno Day @ Dynolab - 9:00am - whenever:
- Marietta8
- SpyderDoo(& friends)
- Trhoads
- Uacolon(& friend)
- Whenson417 (maybe)
- valpac
- Landon Starr
- Nabil(as a spectator)

 

I plan on eating with yall before the dyno thing. How many people are planning on going to eat?

Jamie

 

I'll be able to make it for sure now. Where is everyone planning on meeting up for breakfast?

 

It had been mentioned that there was a Waffle House near by and we were kind of running wiht that assumption...

 

i am in for breakast
tbone steak and eggs with a side order of hash brown and gritts
here i come
:D

 

So no signup for the Autox from Lego or Chris yet...

 

The only awful waffle I can think of that is near dyno lab according to the map is the one off of Roswell road just at the top of the hill east of the 120 loop. Does anyone know of a closer location or have any other suggestions?

 

I am not familiar with that area, someone who is will have to speak up.

I want to know why I am not getting updates for this thread anymore?

I am still subscribed to it, so this is confusing, thus the face.

EDIT:
New map showing both destinations.

 

Wes is right. there is one at Roswell road or htere's the Marietta diner on 41 or there is another waffle House at Delk and 75 before you get to Powers Ferry. Powers ferry will take us all the way to Dynolab in short order.

Arthur is looking forward to having us and I am really looking forward to seeing how different our cars are. All of the ones that I have driven feel really similar so I hope that we throw down some good numbers.

for reasons of comparison I would recommend everyone running premium gas if you are not already doing so. Also be sure to tell Arthur what flash you are on and he can note it on your sheet for future reference.

 

So where would everyone like to meet. The Waffle House or somewhere else? No matter to me, just trying to figure out where to go, Marietta is like another country to me, I am never over there, and thus have no idea where anything is.

 

2390 DELK ROAD
MARIETTA, GA 30067

This one, sounds good to me, it is easy to get to. We just need to decide which one to go to, so that we all go to the same one, I can se us all showing up at 4 Waffle Houses.

Nabil,

I know that in Roswell, that Waffle House wanted to build a new Waffle House right across the street from an existing one. So you were not too far fetched with your joke!

 

This seems to be normal attendance now... We should get 4 each. They hope by the end of the season to get up to 5 each.

Oh, and there is actually 269 signed up now. 19 afternoon novices and 12 cars in my CSP class.


Who is bringing a cooler? I'll get a case of bottled water and bring that. Someone should bring some snacks...

Sorry guys/gals, I can't make the autocross this weekend. Going to the beach with my wife. I will make all needed preparations to make the next one though. After seeing all those videos, I'd love to run up there.

what time wil yall be ariving there?

 

Actually, there is a discussion happening over here about meeting at the local cracker barrel.
