WTF are you talking about?
I'm no SCCA boy, I'm no die-hard autox guy, I just run BIMP...
Try using English next time.



Typically we divide into two groups, BMW and Other, and then swap people around to make them even numbered and sort out those who are sharing a car and have to be in different groups.

We generally get 3 to 4 runs in the AM, break for lunch and get in another 3 or 4 in the PM; this all depends on how many people are there.

We have been trying to let one group get all their AM runs in at one time, then swith and let the other group get their AM runs, so after you finish a run you get right back in line to go out again and stay in your car. Same routine in the afternoon, this saves a lot of time trying to get drivers changed into workers. When you are not driving you will be working.

Times are written on a big board for all to see.

This ain't no fancy ass SCCA event, this is driving for the sake of driving and having fun.

And, we set up a way better course configuration at BIMP than SCCA does!

Doug-

What are the helmet requirements for the BMW events?

Refresh my memory, what track config do you run?

Thanks

#2- If I tell you I'll have to kill ya, so just come and see for yourself...
