Swack! Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I'm thinking about it....never tried autoX before.hmm I wont know till I start working. I'll let you know asap. My first one was last year.. do it, you will have a blast. Start out at a comfortable pace and kick it up when and if you feel like it. GREAT (safe)place to let the Vette loose! Yes, at least come out and see the cars and people, and I guarantee you - You will go around "the cones in that parking lot" and "wont care what anyone thinks" because "these are all really cool people!" That's what it's all about, and John and I both learned that our 1st time last year.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted April 5, 2012 Author Share Posted April 5, 2012 How many do we have committed to coming out? Right now there are 12 or 13 prepaid, as far as those paying on site I wasn't able to keep track of how many said they were coming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCMSH Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 ^^^This^^^ Had an absolute buh-LAST!!!!! Any of you that miss this are really missing out on the funnest think you can do in your car with your clothes on. The gang was still going at it, attendance was light so we all had the opportunity to make a lot of passes. If you miss this one you MUST do the next, its just too much fun not to. Nice work Dawg!

Chameleon Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Had a total blast! Thanks to Dawg for setting this up and to all other ACEholes who contributed shade, chairs, helmets, food, etc., etc. Special thanks to Donna (HogLuvr) for being our timing person! Those of you who didn't go, you REALLY MISSED OUT ON A GREAT TIME! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted April 8, 2012 Author Share Posted April 8, 2012 I know I had more fun than I was supposed to, and more runs than I needed too. left some extra rubber on the pad just before closing time, Ask Donna (hogluver).. Donuts are fun, but just not fast on the clock! And the Camaro drift club make it look easy, I can tell you that trying to go sideways on purpose isn't.... Sorry the rest of you missed this one, the smile on my face is guaranteed to last about 2 weeks, then it's on to the Damn Cruise!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
