Hi all,

Below is the PCA web site, here you will find the listings for their autox/race forums, look under "Driver Participation Events and Discussion"

Upcoming AutoX dates at a glance:

July 31, August 1 & 8, and September 5th

I am hoping to make them all:)...if you want to go, I can advise online for you, let me know.

Cheers, Brian

I'm planning to go to all of them with my dad and uncle. It'd be really nice to see some other Fieros out there.

The July 31/August 1 weekend is a two day team event.

Hey Colby...did not know that, how many per
team?...if 4, we could do a WCF team:)...if
you and I, anyone else interested?...can also
co-drive one car:)

car will be ready by then:)

They're doing teams of 5 drivers, each team needs one novice and one Porsche so that pretty much rules out the possibility of a WCF team.

The three of us are going to make a team. My dad is both a novice and driving a Porsche, so that satisfies both of the requirements. This is my first autox where I'm not considered a novice... still feel like one though. My uncle (Allan) is going to co-drive my car half the time and my dad's car the other half of the time to give us an idea of what they're capable of. This still leaves 2 spots on our team for whoever else, and of course if any more Fieros come out I'm sure they can find teams for them.

If your car isn't ready by then you're welcome to drive mine... just don't expect too much from the duke. Actually now that I think about it, even if your car isn't completely ready it might still be better than mine, lol, as long as your clutch is working properly that is.

Here is Rich's (the guy who handles the PCA autox stuff) post on their forum:
Quote The double header weekend will be our first ever 24 hour enduro team enduro race!

The format will be as follows:

- There shall be teams of 5 drivers formed.

- You may form your teams in advance, however: there must be at least 1 Porsche car on each team, and 1 novice driver on each team.
(novice = 3 or less autocrosses)

- If you arrive without a team, I will assign you to one.

- We shall run the autocross as normal, however, at the end of the day, the total run times of each team shall be added to a team total. This shall then be repeated on the Sunday. The total times for both days shall be all added together, and the team with the lowest total time shall be the champions.

- In the event that a team is short 1 or more drivers, the slowest driver's total runtime will be multiplied as needed for that team. (so make sure all your drivers show up!)
- In the event that there is a team missing a driver on Sunday, and we have an extra Driver without a team, that driver will be allocated to that team.

- Drivers may switch cars as they please, however no driver may take extra runs.

(rules are open to refinement between now and the actual event)

Awesome. I'm uploading some videos from today right now, but here's one of my runs from yesterday. Unfortunately I didn't get any from the afternoon on that day, so it's a slower one.

My dad has some pictures too, I can upload a few later. Can't wait for next sunday!

Two from today are now uploaded, my uncle and I both drove the car. It was really nice being able to compare my time to his. I feel like I drove fairly well, being a little over 2 seconds behind him.

Waytago Colby!

No offence to Brian and his slick GT , but it's nice to hear that little duke roaring around the track!

That looks like fun. I may have to check this out for myself.

Yep. I may not be nearly as quick as Brian, but I bet I had just as much fun.

Porsche 914/6. Nice.

How are the brakes holding up, Brian?

Never shift into reverse without a back-up plan.
