Tell everyone concerned THANK YOU for the plaque and jackets VERY THOUGHTFUL! We so loved having you out at AMP and I will miss you enjoying the facility. I texted you but I couldn’t email or text anyone else. I couldn’t see any contact info on website.

A few pics of Run Group A at the Phoenix Raceway "Pebble Trail Hillclimb".

I hope to have the course layout on line by Thursday. Keep checking back.

run 5 put me in 3rd place in the giant CAM-T field

OK, I admit it. I'm kind of an autocross addict. It's my favorite weekend sports activity. So I keep track of all of the nearby opportunities. Just sharing with you too in case you get bored some weekend over the summer and want to know where you can go play safely with your car. For when beer and baseball just isn't enough.😎 So, sharing as FYI, in case this information comes in handy for you. There are occasional months when I've attended all three locations. Did I mention that "addict" part?

Comp - 40.6 TO - 40.1

If you are reading this and want to help our local community teens to become safer drivers, we are looking for volunteers to be couches for our Teen Driving school that we are hosting on Saturday September 27th 2025 at Kino. If you are on this website and participating in autox (or not…) you have all the skill you need to be a coach, this is helping teen drivers to understand how their cars perform at the limit (ABS Braking, lane change maneuvers, skidpad) so they know what to expect, and be able to handle their car safely. It is really rewarding to watch the students learn and gain confidence as they go thru the lessons. If you are interested in helping please reach out to me and I will send you the link to the online training. Lunch and breakfast will be provided the day of the event. If you know anyone who could benefit from this class please point them to: https://streetsurvival.org/ Our specific registration link: https://www.motorsportreg.com/index.cfm/event/register.trss/uidEvent/B3C1EA4E-AD56-C063-4B511B950F618490

Here is the course map for May 10 at Phoenix Raceway. As always, the course maybe modified at the time of set up for safety, vision and flow reasons. Phoenix Raceway Map May 10, 2025 (wog).pdf

Google Maps says those stalls are ~25ft wide and 50ft long. The black-lined grid of spaces look to be standard-sized parking stalls that have been painted over.

If you use the Temporary Memberhsip option and then wish to become a member, the prior fee paid ($15 ?) can be applied to reduce the actual cost of the full membership. That was what i did in 2022.

Kenneth, you are correct. Scott U was focused on the person’s question, as he was considering a membership, but left out that temporary membership option. My observation is I think is that when you register, only then can you purchase that Temporary Membership. So you CANNOT then have access to our member’s EARLY registration advantage. So, as they say, “Membership has its privileges”. In my mind it is simpler and cheaper to just become a regular member. I think the Temp Memberships might work best for those who only come out every now and then, not to every event.

Now we'll see if it is at all competitive...

Hey SC Folks. In anticipation of the May 10 Test Event, and all our future Phoenix Raceway Solo Events, I for one would like you to please share some advance details about the site with us. I like to plan ahead. 😎 I ran there when we last used PIR (so I’ll still be using that term, don’t especially like “PR” 😉). Sorry.😂 I’d really like to see an overhead view of that part of the area that we’d be allowed to use, especially the course lot and parking. Like a course map without the course. Please comment on your perception of the relative size compared to the AMP lot. Will Pat the Hot Dog Lady be allowed on site. Last time no vendors were allowed, I recall. Thinking it will be nice to be able to bring unlimited/unscheduled friends out now. Really missed that. Can we ditch that online system please since numbers no longer matter? What time will our access gates open for participants? Any formal “be gone” time? Please share those, and any other nuances that would be handy. Thank you.

It’s now added to DS

Phoenix Raceway template.pdf Scott A template is what is being worked on at present, but understand May 10 is a practice event, so these things may/will change. Information on Pat will be announced at a later date. On the May event gates will open at 6:30 for drivers, and unlike AMP there is no off street parking so don’t plan on arriving before 6:30. Guests will need to continue to register through MSR for speedwaiver but are not limited like AMP. Lot is slightly smaller than AMP but we are not losing space due to the sound meter and only one side is bound by fence. More details to follow. Phoenix Raceway template.pdf

And here is a guest driver quickly figuring out just how much fun a 40 year old muscle car is to throw about an autocross course...

Here is my fastest comp run, a 41.235 thanks to an incredibly happy, perfectly sized, ballast addition.

Uh, I'm more concerned about your rear bar... 👀

No pictures of mine but some side camera work Looked quick but Times just didn’t translate yesterday

I did a year in D-Stock (pre-street tire days) with a 2011 135i. If the new car is anything like that, you want the biggest front bar you can find. I think if someone wrote a letter, it would be a quick in for D-Street, with the "M"240i in FStreet. But nothing will happen until you write in.
