Our best shot is the Monday after the Historics for the convenience of the attendees. If we can get the Pro pits on that date is problematical....but I ain't gonna try if no one wants to stay over for it.

I don't know if they had an AX at the Historics this year.
Last years really sucked.....hand timing, unsafe, no results...yada.

QUOTE (VegasRacer @ Aug 21 2005, 03:02 AM)
At the 2005 WCC most everybody stayed for the Streets of Willow track day on Monday. In fact we added new people for that day only. I don't know if an Auto-X will have the same attraction.

An even bigger question than "Should we?" is "Can we?".
#1 is insurance. Do we have somebody to sanction an Auto-X for us?
Next is the logistics. Cones, timers, PA, man power, etc, etc.

I loved the WCC "04" drive around Mazda race way and Candle Stick. I loved the Willow event in "05"!

914's are all about driving. I was very careful while driving my 914 around the Willow course because of the distance I had to travel to get home. I was very worried about breaking something. But I wouldn't have missed it for the world. If there was any way I could have made the "05" Victory Lane deal at Mazda I would have traveled half way across the country again for the chance to drive around with a bunch of 914's. I vote for an AX, track event, or a closed course thing of some kind. MHO.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a racer, I'm a builder. I build stuff. I'm the worse driver on an AX course you'll ever see. But it's all about the 914 scene and the cool factor!

In "04" we piggy backed on the Porsche Club event and had one of the best AX events ever. If we can piggy back on the historics that would make an easy way to get insurance and have a great time.
