Great job! Nice to see more 444 tribute cars being driven instead of sitting in collectors museums.

Going to be another great season. Right now we really need instructors to sign up for the Autocross School on April 10th. We had a great instructor turn out last year and hope for the same this year especially as we have expanded the size of the student pool. Email me directly if you have not instructed for AX before but are interested in helping : mkaunitz@pcapotomac.org

Cool stuff. I will be back this year, at least at the AX at summit point, and this time with all 6 cylinders, LOL.



Cheers

Default Thanks to all for a great autocross school

I just wanted to offer my sincere thanks to all involved in the PCA autocross school today. I'm sure I ran into (and thankfully not over) a few Dorkis at RFK today. It was a great time and I'm looking forward to a few more events where my feet are defrosted before the second run!
So thank you coordinators, instructors (oops coaches) and a special thanks to Pat for the hospitality. It was a great time and far exceeded expectations.
Cheers,
Rob

Rob - what kind words! Thanks for the feedback and glad you had a great time.

Switching gears - is anyone else's face sun/windburnt beyond recognition?

Yep, last thing I thought of when bundling up in the predawn freeze was sunscreen.

Many thanks to all the coaches for their insightful instruction! Another terrific program! Great food too(as always), and thank you for the curb-side service with the doughnuts! It was great so see so many folks again, and met Otto in person for the first time! Hey Otto!

I especially liked the chalk talks and the handout. That material is top notch! I could have used some of awhile ago too. Also learned just how important that walk-thru is in the afternoon, and pass on the backside of the cones!
