2009 Autocross: Two Tales
Well Autocross season is here, there are essentially two ways to go;
First the CSCC schedule Date Event Location May 2 test & tune/novice school Penhold May 3 event #1 Penhold May 16 event #2 Penhold May 17 event #3 Penhold May 30 event #4 Penhold May 31 event #5 Penhold June 13 event #6 **Race City June 27 event #7 **Race City July 4 test & tune Westerner July 5 WCMA Regional (event #8) Westerner July 25 event #9 **Race City Aug. 8 event #10 Westerner Aug. 22 event #11 **Race City Sep. 12 event #12 Penhold Sep. 13 event #13 Penhold Sep. 19 event #14 Penhold Sep. 20 event #15 Penhold Date Event Location April 12 novice school + test n tune Lethbridge Exhibition park. April 25 Event 1 Lethbridge Exhibition park. July 4/5 Event 2-3 Lethbridge Exhibition park. August 8 Event 4 Lethbridge Exhibition park. August 22 Event 5 Lethbridge Exhibition park. |
I might run a couple events from each if they come to town but I don't think I want to do this much traveling this year .
I will also concentrate on Solo 1/SoloSpring more since it involves driving on a real track vs driving in a parking lot with cones. |
SASC doesn't have a single event here planned; as for the CSCC they are still waiting on confirmation for those Race City dates.
My car doesn't have the abilitiy to do road racing, I need way more juice under the hood & my brakes will probably fade away in a couple of laps. |
Some news
SASC may have a Calgary Venue after all, we may see more dates & events pop up on the calander. |
linky? If they do I will probably run them "for fun" not through a membership since I wouldn't attend most other events outside of Calgary
|
This is the info I spotted on SASC website today

As soon as any new venue is confirmed, it will be announced here. The membership pays for itself in about 3 or 4 events compared to paying for it as a guest, it not a bad deal. |
Memberships for SASC just went up, is 30$ for a single membership

damn that's cheap, is there a max number of participants? i'd like to wait and see if any Calgary events come up. |
They cap each event, I think 40 max?
Is a good deal, if the Calgary venues come through I am signing up for sure. I am not crazy about driving to Lethbridge every time. |
They are saying they need people to fill certain roles to go ahead with the Calgary events right now.
I think they want to run 5 events here in Calgary, if you guys have any time to volunteer it might go a long way to helping our cause. I know I am not really planning to drive all the way out to Lethbridge, would be nice if the Calgary stuff comes through.

I am considering capping the entry to our event this year esp. in Calgary for better control of the events. Therefore volunteers with a dedicated position will always have a spot reserved for them. I think that at the very least fair to the helpers. Less people => more runs too. http://sascsolo.ca/forums/style_emot...fault/wink.gif |
I told them I would volunteer for registrations and timing if needed. I am in for sure.
Can you link us so we can reply in that thread? |
Sure, no problem;
Either thread should be ok to reply in. 2009 Preliminary Schedule - SASC Forum SASC Recruitment - SASC Forum |

There are two courses coming up, is 300$ for each one.
SoloPro Driving School Sign up/interest - SASC Forum Anybody going to sign up? I have a feeling spots will dissapear quickly. |
I will be doing the one as part of the solosprint series
2009 Solo Sprint Series - Dates |
I am signing up for both days of the SASC one,
it is pretty steep for price, but they are having some good instructors come to Calgary to teach the course. I really want to get started off right this year. |
I am sure the series I want to participate in will rape my wallet good so I can't afford both plus tires, an alignement, a new gauge cluster (like the one in my living room right now) and possibly a front lip and camber kits front and back :P
|
Would be better if it was like 250$ for both days, lol
|
WHOOO-HOOOO!!!
CALGARY VENUES CONFIRMED!! LET'S DO IT :) LINK: 2009 Preliminary Schedule - SASC Forum Not that I am excited or anything :) |
