Thought that I should put something here, too, in addition to the New York/New England Regional area.

Anyway, for you bored autocrossers up north, why not come out and play on ice? Check out http://www.boston-bmwcca.org for information on this season's Ice Racing schedule. Basically, it's an autocross with the pavement replaced by a frozen lake. Car classes are set by drivetrain configuration and tire type. Low key and a lot of fun.

Hope to see you on the ice.

I used to do ice-knanas, and short events on ice in my youth. Should be happening in Wisconsin, Minnesota and Canada. Best training you'll ever get!

 

After checking the website on saturday I went up on sunday to watch and lo and behold no ice racing and I checked both lakes. :???: When do they post if it is cancelled?

 

no ice in hawaii but that sounds like a lot of fun! anyone have more pictures?

Sorry you made the trip for nothing (I've done that before, myself).

The Ice Racing Bulletin is at http://www.boston-bmwcca.org/events/bulletin.asp?type=2

The status of each scheduled event is also announced using the Boston Chapter Hotline (781) 894-8766. Typically they make the call on Saturday around noon if there'll be an event the next day.

There's also an e-mail bulletin you can sign up for through the Boston Chapter BMW CCA website.

There are lots of "scheduled" dates in the hopes of getting 5 or so events in. Mother Nature is very fickle.
