Marina CA, autoxing 2/23

Anyone else going? This is going to be my first time going to an autox event. It more like an autox class that day, but just wondering if anyone is going?

I will be heading up with 3 miata. Just want to see if there are anyone with a s chasis going, maybe give some tips. I am usually into drag racing, but wanted to give autox a try.

O yea.. I thought I sent you a PM. My homeboy said 300... unless you want to make him an offer.

Better sign up and hurry. Spots are limited.

Yeah, the 23rd is the class. The actual autox is on the 24th.

I'll be at the autox. I'm hoping my lower back gets better by then or I'll have to sit it out.

Hope you get this before saturday. Make sure to leave all the "junk" at home. Meaning anything that you don't need, that may fly around and what not. Papers, pencils, clothing, anything that you don't need. With rain in the forecast, you don't want to leave this outside the car where they can get wet.

You should only have floormats, spare tire, jack and tools, and lunch to take out of the car for the autox.

Here's a write up from an instructor who will be at the autoX School.

http://www.baautox.com/forum/index.p...start=0&rid=84

I'll try to drop by saturday, but I should be there sunday.

Yeah normally all the local 240sx guys just want to do the auto-x. Hopefully I'll be able to make a battery hold down so I can go tomorrow.

Glad you had fun. I drove by around 1:30 p.m. before heading to work, dunno if you notice me.

Hope to see some of you in a few hours.

I drove out there on Sunday to take a look. The course looked pretty open with long straights. I was pretty suprised because I thought it would be a lot tighter w/more turns. I haven't done any Auto-Xing but plan on trying to make it out for my first time in the near future.
