Forum will no longer be utilized!

After facing many challenges with utilization of this forum for many years, the board voted on the evening of 1/12/2026 to stop use of the forum in favor of the modern, more effective means.

Most of our general club organization will now be coordinated via Discord and results from our events along with schedules and announcements will be hosted on our main alscca.net webpage.

What does this mean for the old forum? Well, in short we are going to stop using it. This has been reviewed several times in the past few years, and there has been a desire for some of more tenured members of the club to have the historic content preserved. In an effort to preserve this content, it was discovered that we could not simply export the content to be placed in a modern website. This forum will now become an archive only forum and will not be monitored. If you wish to preserve any of the content, this is your time to search the pages to find it. There is no promise that this content will remain available forever with the fragile nature of this forum.

    That's nothing...I swapped ends at the apex of T1 at Barbers with a Miata behind me. It's amazing how well you can aim a spinning car when you have to get out the way. And for the record I passed the miata on the front straight.

      Yikes! That's something to keep an eye on while designing courses. Where might the spinning car go?

        Isn't that what you're SUPPOSED to keep an eye on?!

        Remembering that course, that area was in line with SCCA specs for design, but where John spun was not considered ... and also the speed at which he was traveling ... lol.

        You can't account for everything in a lot like that.

          It's more a consideration for where and when cars get started. Had Sam's dad started a few seconds earlier, it wouldn't have been an issue.

          Also, if John knew how to drive it wouldn't have happened either.

            Lol ...

            Yeah, As a starter, you look for the correct window to send cars. I've started events where there was only a small window to start the next car. In those cases, someone will always take their time to start, possibly making for a dangerous situation. I've had to start cars, then tell them to hold 10 seconds later before they actually start to move.

            Ideally, that situation wouldn't exist.
