I've found myself up in Medford this week and just for fun checked the AutoX scheule.

Wouldn't you know it - they're running this weekend.

Should have brought my car. Damn.

Of course, but I didn't check my computer before I left Los Altos. Had to come up here in a bit of a hurry as my sister was in hospital.

Anyway next time.

I did go out yesterday and watch the AutoX. Those guys have such a great venue.

They have 67 different courses they can set up on that track.

Everyone I watched was having a bunch of fun.

Real sorry to hear about Sonny's Cobra which got pretty bent in an off at a hill climb. Evidently he totally flipped the car after hitting a bank. but landed on his wheels. He came out bruised by OK.

Holy Crap...that is crazy in an open car like his with a minimal cage. That is one reason I haven't yet done a hillclimb. I don't have the means to just totally write off a car in the case of an incident.

My cage is probably 125plus.

If your going to run hillclimbs, especially in an open cars, that extra weight has to be part of the game.
