I have to say, I'm very jealous of the weather you guys get down there, at this time of year. This is what it looked like weekend before last here in rainy Vancouver, Canada:
Hey, rain or not, at least you have the slush season. Where I am now it's pretty much NOTHING from November to March, I would take a cold and rainy autocross right now in a heartbeat!
If you're still in Bellingham, you should come up and try our new pad! They finally finished paving the other side - we now have more than double the space. It's almost as much useable area as Packwood, now. The first video I posted is on the double pad, the second was before they started paving.
edit - ah well, I see you're in Indianapolis now.. That'd be a bit of a trek
Here's a video of how not to shift from 2nd to 3rd. This seems to happen to me once or twice a year. All other nine runs went just fine, this was the last run! 
Fortunately my subconscious is trained to push in the clutch instantly.
Anyone else ever do this?

Here's the whole run, fun course, especially for a narrow airport taxi way.

First time autocrossing in the cold & wet on the RS3s. Painfully slick. I need a sent of Conti DWs for the wet.

I'm Rad...Here are some events up here in the NorthEast
In both videos I am the first driver(the slower one of the two), my buddy Steguis the 2nd driver.
This video was my 4th overall event in my S2K, first event with the JRZ's, gendron bar(1.25") and "proper" alignment. I should've shifted to 3rd around the 0:37 marker!
Metlife Stadium, N.J

And this was my 5th overall event in my S2K and last event I attended in 2011 season *stupid winters*.
I went off-roading in this one, lol. Still learning the limits...and having a blast!. Again, should've shifted to 3rd!
Philly, P.A

It's great to see the different venues and course designs all throughout the country, different driving styles, and of course great to see videos of those who have won it all.
I nauseously await the 2012 season to start in about 5 weeks up here.
From my first ever ProSolo last year when my car was still prepped for STR with my codriver Dan (Ghostshadow).
