    Thank you everyone for the positive feedback! I will try to make something equally as fun for our December event!!

    I may be biased with my muscle car, but I'd love to see more fast tracks like this 😉 Would be cool to stagger 2 technical tracks for the miatas and 2 fast tracks for the v8s per season so we get the best of both worlds.

  2. Hey all, back before covid forced us to forego full day events and TOs, I was taking photos with my DSLR during the run groups I neither ran nor worked. I've been really wanting to get back into it again, but for obvious reasons I can't snap photos while running after cones on course.

    My question is, is it possible for me to sign up to run & work for the afternoon session, but arrive on-site for the morning session to take photos (or vice versa, run morning and take photos in afternoon)? I know AMP has a maximum limit of people that can be on site at once, so I wasn't sure if something could be worked out with me being on site for the full day.

    I wouldn't necessarily need to be on the track itself (though I would like to if possible), and all my photos will be free, public domain, and contain no water marks, as its just a non-professional hobby of mine. Quality wouldn't be nearly as great as Phil Veitch since I don't have all the super fancy equipment or experience 🙂
    Here are some examples from 2019

    Thanks!

  3. Rear diff finally gave up the goose... couldn't get power down out of the corners and my time suffered because of it. But all in all, still a great course and was a total blast. The old girl will spend next season on jack stands getting some much needed TLC.
     

     

  4. This has easily been my favorite course in the 3 years I've been doing AutoX. I was just thinking before the event how cool it would be if we had at least one track where we could go flat out almost the entire length of the track, and thats exactly what we got to do in those beginning slaloms. It was a great mix of extremely fast straights and tight corners with some good sweepers. Very well done!

  5. I have an 05 GTO, not exactly light, but I always welcome anyone that wants to ride along!

    Currently due to covid restrictions, AB and CD are split into separate morning/afternoon sessions. You will get a work assignment for the opposite run group you signed up to drive in, IE if you signed up to run for C, you will work D, and vice versa.

  6. Can't thank you enough! I'm an amateur car photographer myself and always take action shots of my friend's cars, but no ones ever taken any of my GTO. Now I finally have some pics with the new wing!

    Also, I'm from Spokane myself. Cool to see more mossbacks!

    If the work assignment you choose in your run group is already selected, it boots you. Lance is busy fixing this now, for 15 of us.

    I'm now "fixed".  Poor Lance.

    Oops... I was the one who chose course for group B... guess this is on me 😶

  8. Had a buddy sign up at the same time as me in B group and he was put on the wait list as well, but in the attendee list it doesn't show nearly 30~ people signed up for B. Is this a site error, or does it just delay in updating the attendee list?

    You kicked me from second place 😞 

    The three of us were real tight... its great to have some close competition! Felt like CAM-C was barren there for a bit. I'm excited to see how the rest of the season pans out, especially once I get my new control arms on 😉

    As an update, there were a few late cancelations and additions.  If you were added from the waitlist, you should've received an email from Lance letting you know.  Please make sure to check the run groups so you know where you're running.

    Tom, we can certainly accomidate you on that, just let whoever is doing worker check in know and they will place you accordinly.

    Much appreciated Dave 🙂

  11. Unless the seating arrangement has been modified, I'm a little uncomfortable being observer and sitting close to anyone. When I work course, I can distance myself from the other course workers. It may seem silly to some, but I have to be extra careful with covid restrictions for personal health reasons.

    I have a few good shots I took from last year with my Canon, I will post them when I get home from work tonight.

    I have been wanting to take more but with the Covid restrictions, there's no off-time to do so. Unless I could sign up as photographer for my work assignment 😉

    Heres a few of my favorites... but I also have a ton of non-blurred still shots too. This was back when I had just gotten the camera so it's not my best work, but I thought some came out alright. Let me know if you need them altered or resized in any way!
