Good luck, give 'em hell.

I'm going to London tomorrow so I wouldn't be able to attend anyway. Although like I mentioned I'll probably do mostly BMW and Audi autocross at Maywood this year. They are a bit more fun for me, lots of friends there, fewer people so you get more runs and don't take 11-12 hours to do the event and they are much closer to my house so I save a couple of hours of driving time.

I autocrossed mine a couple of weeks ago with the BMW club. I did well but only finished 5th out of 10 in the open class (anything non BMW). It was a Mazda sweep of the top 5 as it was four Miatas and then me. I beat the time of most of my bimmer friends, even those with 75 more hp. I also found out some stuff that I was doing wrong which would have helped me at the Joliet autocross.

Although, after my first track weekend last week, I might decide to spend my time there instead of autocrossing.
