Toledo Autocross

Had a mediocre run at the Toledo local autocross at the airport last weekend, but I also haven't been autocrossing much this year. Fast course, with a loooonnng slolam to start off.

My best raw time (though it had a cone) that I caught on video. Forgot to start the camera for the last one and did go faster.


​​​Was an interesting group for STX this time around, with a truck, a Mini Cooper, and a BMW 128i

Thanks! Not the closest site but it's within reason (hour and a half), especially for the quality of the site.

Do they always paint the lines there for the course or is it always the same course every event? Looks fun

It's chalk/ drywall dust/ flour that they put down for each event. Helps people follow the course direction when it's kind of a sparse set of cones.

I live in Toledo and am the worker chief for NWOR. We're blessed to have Toledo Express Airport to run at. That was probably the best course we've had in the 10 years I've been autoxing (they're always different).I just picked up an '09 RX8 last month that I'll probably run a few times (normally run STR in a '17 Miata ND).

Yeah! It was quite the course, very flowing and you had to stay ahead of the car. Frustrating to miss out on a dry course for our run group though.
