I thought I would bump this thread for an update:

Basically SASC is changing up the basic concept of their events, because they only have 4 or 5 there probably won't be any kind of official championship.

Instead they are going to be putting emphasis on seat time and making them more fun.

I think it should be a good mix, there is one coming up next month on the 27th. It sounds like they are going to be capped really low (to maximize seat time) so signing up early will be key to getting in.

The good news is they are local and the lot is great, if you guys even just want to come and try it out it would be worth it!

The 27th looks to be open for me.

So will this be at the same place as last weekend? Grey eagle casino?
BTW what website are you checking, the sasc forums seems to be dead right now.

That site is always dead

That is what Ambrose was saying in the preliminary schedule thread; they already have the lot at Grey Eagle casino booked agian for the 27th.

I will post up something as soon as sign up becomes availiable.

Anybody interested in going down to Westerner Park (Red Deer.. see link) on June 13th for an event?

Westerner Park

It is hosted by CSCC, cost is 30$ for non-members

Mr_ET · #28 (**permalink**) 05-30-2009, 02:08 AM

it's part of the autoslalom 2 series so there will probably be lots of people to compete against Nick I'm out for that one.

PRE-REGISTRATION SOMETIME TODAY (For June 27th @ Grey Eagle Casino)

And it is already 20% full, sign up ASAP before word gets out. It is capped at 30 drivers, should give lots of seat time.

The event was at racecity on the full roadcourse.

I finished mid pack of the slowest group but I had the lowest hp car out of every single car there lol.

I was in a group with a evo II e30 m3, a 1980's 911 3L, roadcourse prepped camaro z28, a lotus elise and my car :P

I was ahead of a 2008 si, 2006 rsx-s, a couple of vettes, a 540i, a MB 560SEL :P.

The fastest car of the day was an 850whp z06 2005 vette running hoosier a6 295 fronts 345 rears lol.

He ran a 1:20 I ran a 1:38.8 lol.

Sugarphreak · #34 (**permalink**) 06-02-2009, 12:22 AM

Nothing wrong with that, sounds like fun man!

Was that Vette Jay by any chance?

Mr_ET · #35 (**permalink**) 06-02-2009, 09:35 AM

yeah :P crazy stuff

Sugarphreak · #36 (**permalink**) 06-05-2009, 05:50 PM

So the Casino double booked the event on the 27th... there will now be a 20,000sq/ft tent on that site at the same time

Mr_ET · #37 (**permalink**) 06-05-2009, 08:14 PM

let's race in the tent!

Sugarphreak · #38 (**permalink**) 06-05-2009, 10:52 PM

While fun... I don't think it is going to happen

Sounds like it is being rescheduled for one of the weekends right after... but I will miss the event now because I am gone for 2 weeks starting from the 28th

Mr_ET · #39 (**permalink**) 06-06-2009, 12:01 AM

I guess they will have to confirm the new date and reimburse anybody who can't make it?
