  • Hey everyone.

    I'm not sure if anyone reads this anymore but it's been too damn long since I've been able to autocross. I'm amazed at how important it is to me. I miss my autox family and the socializing that goes with it. Since my Dad passed away, I've had quite a bit more responsibilities dropped on my shoulders. I love my Dad but dang, he was a hoarder. I've been going through his things since August and I don't feel like I'm making any progress. In hopes of being able to race this year, I made a last minute decision to rent a trailer to take my car to TGPR and get the annual inspection done. I felt rushed, like I didn't have any time to hang out and say hey to everyone. I'm a bit of a mess right now and trying to get a lot of things resolved and life keeps throwing more on the pile. I just wanted to say hey to my SCCA friends and family to let you know I miss you.

    Someone build a parking lot already!!

    I saw you come & go at TGPR but was working grid so couldn't come speak.

    This no autocross site thing truly sucks. The guys are working hard on it but it has been unbelievably frustrating.

      I miss driving, but I miss the camaraderie more. Hopefully we'll have more events soon and get to see everyone again!

        I know it's a drive but the Wiregrass region has been putting on great events and great courses the past couple of years. If you really miss it and can swing a full Sunday away from home I highly recommend it. It's the best auto-x site in the Southeast!

              Yeah, I'm not enjoying the hiatus either. Got a new Miata, so I guess I'm going to Huntsville to properly break it in.

                    We at ALSCCA are still looking at sites after the Motorsports Lab debacle last year. Things are in the works but nothing to publish yet. Stay tuned for what I hope is good news from the Solo Chairs.

                        There has always been light at the end. The issue is the tunnel seems to be variable length.

                            I'm missing all my Alabama region friends too. Hoping we will get some good news soon. And if there's anything I can do please let me know, I'm happy to help if I'm able. John, it's great to hear from you. Hate that you're going through all of that. If you wanna get lunch or something soon, let me know

                              I think an event at Barber sounds like pretty good news to me!
