I started a blog about autocross and track

One of my first posts is a guide to all the places to autocross in SoCal. I gave Cal Club top billing of course. https://www.autoxandtrack.com/socal-guide-autocross-locations/ I also have a post in the works about how Cal Club CAM is going to take off in 2017! I believe! Ideas and feedback welcome!

Re: "entrants" and supplemental rules 7.9.1 question

Sean, I have been trying to get the word out about x-runs as I think that when available it makes for a killer value for time spent. I don't know of a better deal than 8 runs for $55 on a ~60 second course that usually only takes up 3-4 hours of your day. I have to keep reminding myself to be patien...

Re: "entrants" and supplemental rules 7.9.1 question

Chad do you think that if the Guests had no opportunity to win a trophy (or solobucks) they would not come out? I really doubt the availability or lack thereof to earn a trophy by itself will make a significant difference. Combined with other variables it might to some people but I don't expect to ...

Re: "entrants" and supplemental rules 7.9.1 question

1) Driver - Seems to refer to anyone that actually drives on course during timed runs 2) Entrant - Seems to be a Driver with a valid regional Points Card 3) Guest - Seems to be a Driver without a regional Points Card Event trophies are based on number of Entrants. Pretty sure that event trophies ha...

"entrants" and supplemental rules 7.9.1 question

How are the average entrants determined? Is it only entrants that don't use a temporary number (6xx or xxxx) like what is displayed in the year to date standings or does it include all entrants displayed in an individual event's results?

Maximum codriver entries?

I tried searching for this in the rules and forum and couldn't find it. What is the maximum codrivers allowed to share one car? I assume its two because that is all I've seen but wanted to double check.

Thanks

Re: New to SoCal from AZ

Welcome!

Glad to see another guy with old american iron joining in. What class are you planning on running?

See you Sunday if you are around for the lunch/afternoon time. I'll be the guy with a red 68 Camaro, currently covered in Optima stickers.

Re: How to stabilize car mounted cameras?

FWIW: I've never been able to get a decent autocross video on my iPhone 6 Plus. My old iPhone 5 worked OK with a Ram Mount ( http://amzn.to/2amlPaJ ) and a relatively cheap app (Track Addict) for overlay of minimal data ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NF0ggG8XsQ ....thank goodness my driving has...

Welcome Bryan. I was in your shoes last year when I did my first SCCA autocross. It is a blast and I haven't looked back. I also live in HB. Sure is nice when we get to run at El Toro.

Re: July 9 and 10 Photos and Videos

Usually when there is a conflict between CalClub and SDR I go to SDR because in CalClub I'm often the only car in my class (CAMT) but in SDR I can race against 12-16 CAMT friends consistently. But I had such a great time at the CalClub practice on Saturday, nothing beats dropping time throughout the...

Hi, I apologize if this is covered on the site or forum but I couldn't find it when I looked. I'm trying to stir up interest in folks running CAM in the LA region next year and a SDR participant asked if LA works like SDR and I don't know the answer. In SDR your year end standings are dictated by yo...
