Default Phoenix Autocross this Saturday - Jan 21st

The weather is nice and it is autocross time.

The local PCA is holding an autocross at Phoenix Muni Stadium at Priest and Van Buren.

After not autocrossing my spec car in ages I will be bring it out for a run through the cones.

Any other listers want to come out? Should be fun.

I'm jealous. Last night, if I parked my car for more than 20 minutes, it would need another warmup.

Have fun.

I can give you a spin in the spec car. I'll bring my spare helmet.

Runs usally start about 8am and finish by 4pm. I am not sure when I will be on track, but if you are there you can ride along.

PS... Autocross is great for beginners so really it is a "No Experience Needed" type thing.

I have a friend coming to town, I have to see what she wants to do. Maybe I'll be there, maybe not . I'm also trying to convince her to come to Barrett Jackson

Sup dude, I'm across the city from you, in Avondale. We should meet up sometime, though I think I'm busy for the next two weekends. Are you done with school?

Avondale,
I used to live near 107th and Thomas. I was there from June 97 to Sept 2004. Alot of growth in that time.

I went to Barrett Jackson last year. Actually my wife was the one that wanted to go. It was cool, but expensive and too many muscle cars. I am not that much in to muscle cars and that is pretty much all that was there. There were a few other intersting cars, but maybe like 5-10. I tend to see more intersting stuff out at the track. Maybe I am spoiled, but I have no plans on going again unless the muscle cars trend gets replaced by cars I like more.
