Would you like to instruct as your work assignment? - 7/18

That's right folks, your dream autocross job is available, you could be an instructor as your work assignment!
I am looking for ONEinstructor for the first group. Our problem with that is pre-running the course disqualifies a driver for championship points... which means you will have to run as TIME ONLY, though you can still run with your class if you like.

However, I'm willing to bet there is a seasoned driver (must have competed in at least half the events of the last two seasons or have instructed at a championship or one of our schools before to participate) out there who wouldn't mind giving up champ points for a chance to instruct, and if instructing knocks out a work assignment that just sweetens the deal. Please send me (Lily) a PM (private message) through this message board.

Hey, I managed to fold myself into a Pantera last time.
So long as there isn't something with a smaller footbox than an original Lotus Seven, I should be able to manage.

You shoehorned in to my Miata, so I know it's possible. Colin Chapman must have had small feet. :D

I had a '90 Miata and then a '94 R-package. Both of which I owned for 2+ years each and used as my daily drivers.
Also a Lotus ELise, a '65 Lotus Elan, Fiat X1/9, and roomiest of the bunch, an '85 CRX Si, although the Elan is surprisingly roomy for such a tiny car.

The only "car" I've owned which I didn't really fit in was the old Lynx Formula Vee. I'm just too broad in the shoulders to ever be comfortable in it.
