Default Anyone going to the Zone 1 autocross in Devens in August

I am thinking about attending. Has anyone done a PCA Zone 1 ax before. How many show up? Is it worth doing? What's the competition like compared to SCCA Divisional/National events? I know Devens is a great lot but its a long pull for me and my car is not prepped to the limit of PCA rules so I would like to be sure its worth it before going. TIA - Alan

I will be there. Devens is a great location, it will pull lots of folks from the Boston area, NH, ME, CT, NY and NJ. Last year's was a moderate turn out and got cut short for a couple reasons we won't go into. It will be a haul for you and only you can determine if it's worth it. For me it's, a great lot (airport) tons of Porsches = winner. Don't worry if your car is maxed to the limit of the rules, it's auto-x! come and have fun!!
