You can sign up via http://www.myautoevents.com and you pay at registration ($55).

It's at Gwinnett Co. Fairgrounds, and Mark Davis is doing the course design for Saturday, and Heyward Wagner is doing Sunday's.

I'll be there in the Green Terror, just for shits and grins... well, that and to take a shot at Jerry Grigg... and Steve Rife (if he doesn't get skeered and run STS2 instead). (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Well, after hours of searching for a part, and finally tracking one down at Tom Jumper Chevrolet, and then hours of trying to loosen one friggin' bolt holding a bracket to the body, Will Maham (a Subaru tech, of all things) just broke the bracket apart so that I could get the heater inlet hose contraption out and the new one with functional and intact flow check valve in. I finished bleeding the system just before I had to grid, and while Jim Fossum got me by 0.7 on the day (and 0.7 for the event, since we were 0.061 apart after the first day), I was happy that I got to drive my car, and more importantly, that I'll be able to drive my car home.

The courses were fun, and challenging. I especially want Sunday's course to do over again. Jumping from an LT1 1LE (practice day) to an LS1 "1E" (Saturday's runs) back to the LT1 1LE probably didn't help me overall in the results. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Sunday's course was GREAT! Heyward did an awesome job I thought. I blew it on my last run when I coned the last cone in an outside sweeper wall. Had Nick Rickert and I not coned our fastest runs, we would have tied for FTD with 49.136. How many FTD's do you see tied? (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Instead, my 50.1x had to stand as my best run and another second in FM. Ticks me off. But I'm like you, I want another shot at that course!!

Glad you got the car fixed. That's was my biggest fear when I was driving my car around to different events, a broken car. There were several people with broken parts that managed to get help from other fellow autocrossers in getting their cars fixed.
