So far it's just me and a 6 wagon at the autocross events. I wonder if the wagon guy posts here, he's a lot quicker than me!! You guys should give it a shot.

David has taken my 2.5i and his turbo legacy.... said he had a great time. The reason why we do not go is the hot sun, no shade porta potty, and the fact that it takes most of the day.
I do know a few guys who go every event and they are way to competitive for me. I would just go to see if I could get around without hitting a cone, which I know would piss most of the people there off.
we still have helmets and i know I want to do it at some point.

Do you have the speed 6? If I had a laid back crew to go with I would consider it. The guy is the 6 wagon is good, I know I always liked watching him.

Yeah I'm the only speed6 there. I don't go every event but I try to attend most. The 6 wagon guy is very skilled, I usually miss watching him because of the classes we run. I think he runs STU and I run ESP.

It would be great to see more 6's out there. I run the 6 wagon in STS which is the street tire class. If you are not an SCCA member, you need to get there early on race day to sign up for an open spot. Check the sccahawaii.org website for information about registration. The next event is October 5th. You just need closed toe shoes and a helmet. They also have loner helmets. Mostly everyone there are pretty cool and running over cones is just a part of the event (at least for me it is)! I would suggest having an instructor on your first runs since they can give you some good tips. It usually is pretty hot so bring sunscreen and water. It's usually a 1/2 day affair. If you run in the morning your done by 12:00, or in the afternoon done by 3:00. Hope to see some of you there.

Ah I see, it's because all stock, street prepared, and modified classes run in either the morning or afternoon heats. Next time if I see you at the pits I'll swing by and say hi. I don't think I'll make next event since I doubt I'll have my tires by then, but I'll try. Oh and I have the best trick to do clean runs.... GO SLOW!! hahaha!

You either run 4 runs or nothing. It's 40 bucks for non SCCA members. 5 bucks extra gets you a 5 fun run card at the end of the event.

Next event? read! It's right on this thread!
