PCA's Orange Coast Region has officially creamed everyone's lame excuses for not showing up at an autocross and proving your bullshit stories about how fast your car is, how good your driving is and how cool you look at the wheel of a 914.

Sunday August 6th at El Toro Marine Airstation in picturesque Orange County, just east of Irvine. Over a mile of unused runway (recently repaved for just this purpose, I'm told.) This venue ius within striking distance of many dozens if not hundreds of Club914 members, and because it's a Sunday Morning, no traffic worries!

So haul your lard asses out of bed and come on down and show your stuff. Or at least come see what real 914 drivers look like.

This is a challenge, people. I'm throwin' down!

I'll be out of town, but if they are going to hold more there, I will be game. I've never AX'd before, but since I added my front sway and new springs, I think I am ready to give it a try.

I like how you cut your rear fenders open. Looks really cool. Kinda hate that tucked up in the fender look.

That's pretty much a temporary condition. Down the road a bit I'm looking to add HPH flares. Right now, it's just gotta function right. Piece of string, a sharpie and a jig saw and you too can replicate this white trash hi-po look for your car! Shabby-chic is in, I'm told.

I'm not sure how long OCR runs and since it's a new venue for them, it'll be a first look for nearly everyone there.


Hope to meet some new people there as well as the usual suspects.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) Depending on how far you really have to drive. Is striking distance determined by how big of a bomb launch you need to reach the track from your house? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (yea, i'll probably be there.)

So i'll be bringing the video equipment and probably requesting rides/shots etc. along with driving. My dad is racergreg here on the club and our teener is red number 47. look for us there!

I love the kind invitation, Herb. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I would love to come run, but I work.

What's the timeframe on this? Registration fees? I might not get to run, but I might get to watch...

Well, Auto-voyeurism can sometimes "satisfy" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Typically an AX with SDR would run until approximately 5 pm and I imagine OCR will be similar.

Pre-pay registration is $60 ($75 for late reg) and the deadline to avoid the late fee is today.

Not sure how strict they are going to be about being PCA member. I know that Orange Coast is trying to "grow" their AX program and have made concessions in the past to fill their rosters. Who knows. They may be willing to introduce their program to new drivers.

If you've got questions I would contact Steve Seguino, their AX chair, who would make the call. Contact info is on the link at the top of the topic.

Herb,

now you know damn well we have *some* ladies who like to AutoX.

typically they carry "their" balls in their purse. I would like for them to keep them there and not show me.

Just found out I'm waiting on control arms for the Boxster..
