NYC Area auto-x
I'm planning on going to an auto-x tomorrow morning. The croc has never been to an auto-x and I haven't been to one in six years. It's at 8am, hope I can wake up and be ready in time.

Who's running the event, and which lot is it in?
I'm not around tomorrow or I'd consider stopping by. |
$50 for PCA members, $55 for non. I booked but website stopped me at 'pending review' stage, so I haven't paid yet. It's at Giants Stadium.
NNJR AUTOCROSS #1 MEADOWLANDS April 17: Autocross #1; The New Meadowlands Stadium, Lot E Location: The New Meadowlands Stadium, Lot E I'm rather excited to not to have to borrow a helmet for an automotive event for once as my moto helmet should work just fine. |
They run a pretty good autox. Nice fast courses. Of course, you have to deal with a bunch of Porsche people. :p
I haven't been autox'd in a while, but that lot was pretty smooth but had a lot of gravel. One of the best options in the area though. |
I was up a 5 am this morning to make it to Lime Rock for the BMW CT chapter's skidpad and autox school.
Awesome day and I really, really enjoyed tossing my car around the skid pad. I'm beat - will do a write up later on. |
It seems like I've read a lot of good stuff about the Meadowlands venue.

I might puke though. :puke: |
Did a half-day, realized why I hadn't gone in six years. I don't even mind cone/flag/radio duty, the whole thing is just not for me. Five hours for five runs, a total of about seven minutes of driving. Yes, I could have gotten another seven minutes for another 2-3 hrs invested, but who cares? 1st & 2nd gear going through a sea of cones... :rolleyes:
Perhaps a manufacturer sponsored event I might not pass up, but this sucks. Felt like an awful use of my time, I don't think I'll ever do an auto-x again. |
