Default Auto-X is BACK!

Hooray!!

From the SCCA Hawaii website:

Here's the news you've all been waiting for! No more rumors, this is the real thing!
The Board of Directors for the Aloha Stadium Authority has granted SCCA Hawaii (3) trial events at the Lower Halawa Parking Lot (the same lot that we used back in the 80's). We will send notice of the exact dates as soon as they are finalized. We anticipate the first trial race as soon as August or September.

The Board of Directors will be attending our first trial race. As such, there will be a strict zero tolerance policy in effect. It is imperative that this event goes perfectly to ensure the future of Solo at Aloha Stadium.

NO DRIFTING WILL BE ALLOWED not in the slightest (even in fun runs). We are being watched at all times and any sign of danger/inappropriateness could cost us the site. We need everyone to put their best face and best driving forward to show the Board of Directors that we deserve to be here. We expect everyone to help us monitor the event and report any improper behavior immediately.

Get your cars ready (including me),

Curtis Lee, SCCA Hawaii Solo II Chairman

First time for everything, right? I can't wait!

Where's the best place to get a helmet? Any other must-haves? Oh, and can someone help me perfect heel-toeing?

heel toe is just practice. trying to keep the break constant and touching the throttle just enought for the ammount of braking done.

You usually don't even need to downshift. Pretty much just stay in second gear.

Well, the name is because I'm a huge fan of his (and MotoGP in general), not because I ride.



I love all motorsports and definitely want to try auto-x.
