Se7er Posted June 25, 2013 Author Report Posted June 25, 2013 This is going to be my first Autocross event. I don't know what to expect, but after going to MOT and doing some technical driving up there, I got the taste of the motoring bug again and need more speed and fun. I'm looking forward to this event and looking forward to seeing some of my DCMM friends that I have not seen in too long. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] D.B.'s Facebook Page - facebook.com/DBMiniCooper

I'm looking forward to this event and looking forward to seeing some of my DCMM friends that I have not seen in too long. We're on vacation during this event. You will have a blast autocrossing DB. Even though you don't know Tyler, just look for the bright yellow Lotus Elise. He'll take great care of you Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted June 25, 2013 Report Posted June 25, 2013 Wait I got confused..... Tyler set up another one for when we're on vacation that's with CDC. But 7/27 is the same day as the BMW autocross that we're all signed up for Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman

If the BMW one isn't too far I'm up for doing that one instead. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] D.B.'s Facebook Page - facebook.com/DBMiniCooper

If the BMW one isn't too far I'm up for doing that one instead. I don't think we put it on the calendar anymore.

RDG_RCR Posted June 25, 2013 Report Posted June 25, 2013 I will be at this one as well! I got confused for a second and thought this was my thread.
CHILLIN Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 I've never been to an autocross before but that is the high school I went to so maybe I'll check it out
mikev Posted June 27, 2013 Report Posted June 27, 2013 I wouldn't mind being a spectator and/or passenger, but not quite ready to drive a course yet.
Blown_xa Posted July 8, 2013 Report Posted July 8, 2013 If I can get off, Ill go, it is right near my neighborhood . This venue like most autocross' in the DC metro area, is very small. I went to this one last year, they did a good job with course layout.. but it is still a tease for someone used to national events (airport lots) or NASA autocross events. CDC is a good group though.

Oh quit crying, it'll be fun. And we can roll up in our pajamas since it's 4 minutes from the house!
Blown_xa Posted July 9, 2013 Report Posted July 9, 2013 Oh quit crying, it'll be fun. And we can roll up in our pajamas since it's 4 minutes from the house!can we tech in pj's ? Im down
RDG_RCR Posted July 10, 2013 Report Posted July 10, 2013 It's CDC! You can do anything! (just make sure you have closed toe shoes)
Stephatron Posted July 10, 2013 Report Posted July 10, 2013 can we tech in pj's ? Im down We should!!!
Stephatron Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 I'm so excited!!!! As it looks, Justin and I will be co-driving Miss Lucy and giving her the ride of her life!:rock:
RDG_RCR Posted July 19, 2013 Report Posted July 19, 2013 I'm so excited!!!! As it looks, Justin and I will be co-driving Miss Lucy and giving her the ride of her life!:rock: WOOT!! See you guys there!!
Stephatron Posted July 19, 2013 Report Posted July 19, 2013 WOOT!! See you guys there!! Are you doing AM or PM session?
RDG_RCR Posted July 19, 2013 Report Posted July 19, 2013 Are you doing AM or PM session? CDC is an all day event, you have the option to leave early, but you won't get as many runs, and all of your runs count.
Se7er Posted July 19, 2013 Author Report Posted July 19, 2013 I'm going to try for an AM run. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] D.B.'s Facebook Page - facebook.com/DBMiniCooper
Stephatron Posted July 20, 2013 Report Posted July 20, 2013 Why did I think they had an am session and a pm session?
RDG_RCR Posted July 20, 2013 Report Posted July 20, 2013 Why did I think they had an am session and a pm session? Its a side effect of too much bacon.
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted July 20, 2013 Report Posted July 20, 2013 Why did I think they had an am session and a pm session? You were probably thinking of the BMW group Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
Stephatron Posted July 20, 2013 Report Posted July 20, 2013 You were probably thinking of the BMW group I could've sworn CDC did different sessions too, though. But then again, it was so long ago since I've autocrossed with them.
