New SPOKES Autocross Venue a Success!
Posted on March 09th, 2009 in Racing Ready
This past Sunday’s 2009 SPOKES Autocross #2 was a great success! The venue was very well attended, with 109 competitor/car combinations registered.
They ran the event in 3 consecutive heats with the grids formed in a chevron formation. This arrangement of the grid worked very well for everybody.
It was mentioned that there were 3 kinds of concrete surfaces:
- old & weathered
- somewhat recent, and…
- virgin (a lot of chalk-like dust was kicked up in the 1st heat)
The weather cooperated just fine. Although there was a brief threat of dark gray clouds, the sun reigned supreme.
Someone said, “This is a new day in the history of SPOKES!”
Racing Ready would really like to document more, tonight, but unfortunately time is of the essence… more as the week progresses.
