I am working on getting off that weekend as we speak. I get off work on Friday at 7 P.M., but may try to leave a little early. Have you already made hotel rsvp's? I may be coming up by myself on this trip.

I'm still stuck in hell (you know where) w/ no hopes of getting out. I am thinking about applying at a local store.

I can't get off work before 7 PM

For those in the upstate

For those of us closer to NC than to Florence, you may want to take a look at
http://www.ccrscca.com/ for the April 3 Auto-X. I would love to head down to the double points event but for me that is a 3hr drive whereas Knights Stadium is right at 2hr.

The BMW event was great! 3 MINIs won a trophy!

Might be a longshot here but are any of you running in GS at the Florence autocross? I just ordered a 2005 MCS but it won't be in for the standard 6-8 weeks. I'd love to codrive someone's car to get some seat time in before mine gets here. I would offer a codrive in mine when it arrives in return.

If you'd like references: I've been autocrossing for 9 years, was an instructor for the New England Region of the SCCA and 2 BMWCCA chapters, and have won one SCCA National Tour event in STS http://theracesite.com/index.cfm?pag...m_article=3597

I ran a few SCR events in HS last year in a POS 84' Jetta and came in 2nd in the class for the year. I'll be at Florence either way driving one of my other cars if I can't find a ride.
I look forward to meeting everyone!

I used to run in GS, but now I think I've moved to DS..? This will be my first autox in that class. Look for the dark silver Minis.
