PRACTICE AUTOCROSS - MARCH 13, 2005

Practice Autocross - 100%'er - Sunday, March 13, 2005

We have rec'd board approval to rent the parking lot at Pennington Field for Cowtown Vette's Practice Autocross.  Pennington Field is located at 1501 Central Drive in Bedford.  We chose Pennington Field opposed to Mineral Wells Airport for it's convenient location and less wear and tear on tires and our cars in general.  If you're a racer this practice is an excellent way to kick-off the race season, if you don't race but think you may be interested this is a great way to see what autocross is all about.  Last but not least, if you think you're not at all interested in autocross come out to Pennington, jump into the car with one of our top competitors and see for yourself what all the talk is about.  I urge you to take advantage of this opportunity. This is a safe and fun way to test your cars performance and your driving skill.

A practice autocross isn't all about having a great time, socializing and racing your car.  It's also an event practice.  Yes, I know the CTV Event isn't until September but now is the time to decide what you would be interested in volunteering for.  Some options are setting up the course, timing, posting times, corner worker, starter and staging.  If for some reason you choose not to participate in the practice autocross as a racer, please plan to come out to Pennington, socialize, have some fun and help your club prepare for the "Best Event of the Season".

Please plan to attend; the success of this practice depends on member participation. Worker sign up sheets will be available at the March membership meeting.  Please sign up for one or more worker positions.

Workers will communicate with FRS radios.  If you have a radio please bring it to the practice.
