I have served in almost every board and volunteer position, including Chairman. I feel it's important...

Re: What is the minimum number of events this year to qualify for a year end trophy?

Ok so do at least three drivers need to be at each event for it to count? Will Santa Anita count towards final number of events? Yes, Santa Anita will count and assuming we will have an October event at Santa Anita, that will be 13 for the year so you need to compete in at least 6 events and those ...

What will happen if you register a high db? Will it be instant disqualification and go home. Or will you be given opportunity to modify driving at meter (reduce throttle) DH Note that in addition to what Anthony posted, there is a provision for giving you a warning if you are close to the limit, so...

As soon as docs are signed all will be revealed. Google maps Santa Anita and you can see which lot has been used for autocross before. While this is short notice, this is the date they offered and we are eager to establish a relationship.

I haven't heard anything about one, and would be surprised, not a lot of space in that lot. And we hit 185 entries they have to plan for.
