CARS Autocross 7 2013 with Results

[moti]

What car are you driving currently?

just on the normal road, not for sport lol.

English language not that hard

Either way........back to topic at hand.
You guys think there will be time for fun runs?

[wagonrunner]

it's a gamble, but maybe.

guess it's not well known that this sport is the one which started, and works to maintain the trend of making your normal road car competitive.

[moti]

That's because the general public (a large percentage of them) tends to get all excited about tyre smoke, and straight line racing.
And due to the above they consider any other form as boring/lacking something.

Truth is Solodex/Autocross is a great foundation for adults who never had exposure to karting or who does not have the available funds for karting.
Can also serve as a form of sport for polishing your skills.


I don't know but the changing of the course tends to drive some away as it takes a newbie a while to get the first course right, memorize it and go through the same thing one month later
I know that's how it was with me at the beginning and funny enough the amount of times I started and stopped it will be like that all over again come 2014

But the knowledge one gains from Solodex is second to none when compared to some of the other forms.

If the cone conventions are followed when laying down the courses, it won't matter what the course looks like from above when changed.

KTS, Glad you had fun. Still have the prizegiving ceremony.

[CARSTT SoloDex]

CARS would like to extend our thanks to all attendees yesterday.
Especially the competitors for contributing to an enjoyable and safe event, while striving to go faster in the adverse conditions cause by the heavy rains and resulting poor visibility.
Much thanks to Lifestyle Motors for the use of their Chevrolet Sonic as the championship shootout car for the determining of the CARS 2013 Overall Champion.

Also to Sarge for his handling of all our competitors and guests at the gates, Mrs. Van Sluytman for the tasty lunches that were prepared for us and to Mr. Deo for his Tent services.
We thank our sponsors: NOV Downhole, Trinituner, Abraham Distributors and Zorce Racing Magazine for their support.

We look forward to seeing you all at our Christmas Dinner and Prize-giving function on December 7th.

Course was good fun, too bad I did not get to run my last set of runs. I was taught a lesson in losing this rounds, as the saying goes you cant win them all.
I just want to say thanks to the commitee members for coming out in all the rain and still getting the event going. I also want to say congrats to pete on winning the championship shoot out, he has proved he IS the best 2 years in a row.
My congratulations also extend to moses in clinching the SS class championship this year, you have improved a lot and you will only get better....well done!!

[TRDGUY]

Big up to Mr Moonsie

[ng357]

Well said chris! commendable work by the committee, good judgement with water on the track. Shoot out was run well. Congratulations to all, surely driving has improved from since the start of the season. Looking forward to next year!
