Cheap track day and supports a good cause.
Join me for a fun day at Barber. Let’s make it a big showing from ALSCCA!

Matt grew up in the SCCA, and started hosting these events a few years ago, probably first at TGPR. This should be a good day supporting a good cause.

Well I've been away since 2009 when I had a back injury and I am trying to get back into the sport. I'm going to come out and bring some toys, I'll look you up John.

I'm signed up but we've had a death in the family and have to head out of town.

It was nice to see an almost completely different group of cars on track other than the "usual suspects."

The novices and intermediates stuck around for the whole day, and looked to be having a great time. Even a good group of advanced drivers stuck around for the whole day, and were apparently rewarded with improving conditions through the late afternoon.

I had no grips and had to return the rented trailer before 4:00. Tip toeing through the corners was interesting but I bailed out after 2 sessions. I knew it was going to improve I just didn't want to wait for it. I hope they got lots of toys for the tots.

It did get a lot worse right after lunch, IIRC, so the eventual payoff was a long time coming. Also, I must admit to being fatigued by the "music" from the skid pad.

As I was headed home I drove through a pretty torrential downpour. I was glad I left when I did. After I got home from returning the trailer, it had cleared up in Hoover and the roads were drying. Oh well, next time.
