July 22nd Auto X Cross in Lake County

Windy City Miata Club will be holding another Auto X July 22nd at CLC.
http://www.windycitymiataclub.com/autox/index.html

Link for where; http://www.windycitymiataclub.com/autox/faqs/12.html

I'm signing up to be a member to show support of WCMC and get a better Auto X price. http://www.windycitymiataclub.com/html/membership.pdf

We had lot's of FUN last time and hope many of you will return to drive or watch. WCMC does a great job putting on this event.

FYI, you can come watch, you can ride-a-long with anyone willing to unlock the door and you don't need to drive fast or hard to have a good time.

Maybe someone could make this sticky, Thanks D

Just as a heads up, this is the same date at the Gimmick Rally in Wisconsin. For those who can't make the rally, the auto x would be a great alternative.

Yes it is. You can also bring your wife and run in different run groups, same class, and really be ready for new shoes.

Weather should be great and DRY

We have 5 MINI's today and a ton of FUN. Everyone had better run after better. The Star of the day was Cal, a new MINI owner with 6K on his bone stock 07 S. His MINI had never seen a track, nor had Cal, but after a few laps starting laying down great numbers and making MINI owners proud. Anyone with pics or video please link them up here. Most improved MINI driver of the day was Jeff, but his wife didn't run, I bet she would have beat him. LOL I'll be sure to post when the next Auto X is.

Are they doing another auto-x with the MINI club this year?? I have never run with the Miata club before. Are there events similar to Chicago/Milwaukee Region SCCA events?

We had one event earlier in the year where our club was formally invited (and it cost the Miata club rate to enter). Anyone is free to participate at a just slightly higher visitors rate.
Here is the schedule:

I am hoping to make a northside event later in the year.
