Mazda Rev It Up Scores

Fess up -- who did what in the competition? I figure if a national competition with scaled scores isn't sports involving motors -- even if not 240s -- what is?

I scored a 533 and change on my first run (coned the second -- but my score would have been about 590 if clean ). That was good for 1200ish nationally, 180th nationally in my group (I picked club b/c I don't autox); I was 128th best at my location. I figure that's not bad considering I haven't autoxed or driven an FWD car in years.

I was 1st on the leader board for a few hours, so the 'head marketing guy' called me to make sure I would be around so that I could do an interview, get some pictures taken, answer some questions, etc, etc. Alas, he never called back, so I figured they had already found another marketing puppet. Whee!
The fastest run I had was with a cone, too.. Coulda gone to Laguna; boo!

Wasn't the gokart track just an oval..? Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to down-play your victory.. but.. did they end up changing the gokart track to an actual 'track' after the first events they had here in the Bay Area, California?

Badly.

Just... badly.

Autocross has never been a strong suit for me.

Halz -- nice work! That's a lot of bragging rights.

I think you needed a 600 to be on the pro board here -- Daddio ran the event here and won with a 740-something If I hadn't coned, I still would have been in 35-40th place!

Our go kart track was not an oval only -- it had a few turns. Too bad my 200+ lbs ass got rolled by 140 lbs. kids. Highlight of the go-kart track was that they were also doing drift runs on it in an Rx8.. until he tagged the tirewall and tore the rear bumper off the car. I was standing at the gate ready to go on track and got to see it first hand. rofl.

Damn Halz, nice job!
I go in two weeks to Atlanta. I think I was like 15th there last year...I think 170something(?) nationwide. So I'm hoping for the best...I guess we'll see in a couple weeks.

Well BOO me! I set new records on all three practice courses, but just couldn't pull it together for the real deal. Didn't push hard enough the first run, and pushed a little too hard on the second, got crossed up and lost a couple tenths on a good run...but then I hit a cone...so after the goof-up and the cone penalty, my first run was better with only 576pts.
