I previously assumed that I had to work this weekend but I was mistaken.

What are the chances that I'm going to be turned away on Sunday? It's been months since I've attended an autox because of work.

Hehe. I did a quick @ work reply and didn't completely read your post.

I guess I know what I'm doing this Sunday.

Where?
Giants Stadium! Lots are rough but they run a good event! Courses are more road course like then most SCCA events I've attended. lots of fun, good people. Pre-reg is always filled up early (i've missed pre-reg the past two events and still ran), but you can usually run anyways. Hope to see everyone out there!

Spencer,

How rough is the lot? I've heard the space is almost as big as Raceway Park but the surface is like Fort Dix (old So. Jersey site) meaning it is very abrasive, yet smooth(bump free)... you know what I mean?

its bumpy, but they design the courses around the bigger bumps/jumps. but it will definately eat up some tire if u overdrive. the funny thing is that its quite abrasive, but not overly grippy.

I don't think I could have said it any better then that. I'd say the lot itself is a little bigger then E-Town too. Makes for some interesting courses, especially with some turns being off camber and others being almost banked. NASA courses are definitly becoming more challenging in their design (not just the YEHAW courses they had last year). I'm curious to see what we'll get this weekend.
