I've been trying to get to the UMI event for about 3 years now. The first year there wasn't an autocross and I didn't make it. The next ones didn't go much better. Last year we were closing on a new house and packing during the event. This year I'm registered, my fees are paid and the hotel is booked. I haven't run in a long time and the car is likely the heaviest and lowest HP vehicle on the list....but this seems like too much fun to miss. And, the UMI guys are the best group of guys you'll ever meet and it's always great to hang out with them.

Who's going?

I'm in, I live local in State College.
Our SCCA club has a real nice venue at the MSA Airport, if you ever want to come out for our events (ie Cone Killer weekend).

The UMI park is pretty nice. There are a few points on track where the distance to hard objects is less than SCCA safety spec. One point was a little sketchy IMO but the other places were OK. Nice fast finish. Last year someone managed to get really squirelly and made it all the way up to the wall and roughed up his rear quarter. But that's not a place I would have pegged for slips or hits.
