Default Wet autocross Sunday 6/17 anyone?

Anyone interested in the Miata autocross tomorrow in Framingham? Nimbus and I will probably be going. If it is wet, it will be a good way to learn the limits of the car.

What time do we need to be there by? Can we borrow a helmet?

Look at:

http://www.massmiata.net/MM/Autocross/2001/Rules.htm
for the times, rules etc.

There are normally loaner helmets around - if not, you can borrow mine assuming it is not too large for you.

We'll probably be there around 8:15-8:30 - you want to go earlier if you are not preregistered.

Yup, I'll definitely be at the Miata autocross tomorrow. Might drive my NSX instead of S2000 though.

Aaron,
I cant imagine a 400hp rear wheel drive in the rain in an autocross.....this should be fun to watch
I plan to be there in the a.m.....have to leave at 11:55 though. I will be calling Glenn to see if he will be able to make it too.

Well, it was nice to see you guys again! And to finally see Aaron's NSX! Wow! An NSX on such a small and short course! Very impressive! And then Francis with his Yellow Screeming S2000 in all of the turns!!! Did I make you nervous Francis? The cones were you friends again as soon as I showed up

Well, sorry to leave as soon as the rain started coming down... Hope you guys had fun in the rain! And Dana I hope you stayed dry! I hope to be racing with you guys at the next one!

Yeah, Glenn, to come to think of it, I do seem to hit more cones when you are around.

Sorry! I'll try to hide the next time I meet up with you guys.

Boy you are home early! Did they cancel the afternoon races? It is pouring outside!

Afternoon was cancelled. That course is too tight and has too many obstacles to run in the wet. Though it was just as wet at NHIS parking lot a couple of weeks ago.
