Local PCA chapter is hosting an autocross event in Lubbock, TX. This is the first summer we've had a local event in years (probably 10+ years ago).

I'm just going to participate, get some seat time and learn the ropes so I can make myself more useful for our FSAE team this year. Going to be kind of a loosely classed event, so it won't be straight up SCCA regs. Should still be fun and I'll be up against some quality cars. Mostly Porsche variants, a handfull of Vettes and other stuff. We'll see how I do on my first outing, and hope the V6 and T-56 stays happy.

Plan on snapping pics/video in the process for the facebook page I manage as well for some fresh content.

Take sunscreen, a hat and stay hydrated!! Stay away from carbonated and caffienated drinks. We take at least two gallons of water per person per day at our local events, frequently much more. Keeping cool and well-watered goes a long way towards having a fun event.

Good advice! I did my first auto-x a few weeks ago and got burned to high heavens! Had to stop for a gatorade on the way too because I was parched. Still a great time, though.

Don't worry about being competitive, I was slower than a guy driving the same car as my fiance's Lexus. I do wish I walked the course an extra time or two, though
