At Central Florida Racing Complex on July 3rd, we are having our 1st annual Roadster Shootout autocross event. The Shootout will be run in a similar way to how we run our monthly autocross events, but with a few changes.

We normally have a course that could be navigated by a wide range of cars, for this event, we will be tightening up the cones and adding in a few obstacles that are tailored to roadsters. We will also have two classes, modified roadster, stock roadster, in the past we never use classes; other cars that want to participate will be in another running group.

Let me know if you guys have any other questions, hope to see a great S2000 turnout!

Sounds good Geo.

I should stop by on the 5th after the autocross to check out your dyno day, sounds fun.

What exactly do you mean "obstacles"?

SteveOO

The course is just going to be comprehensively tighter, rather than in the past where I've created courses that could be easily navigated by any car, with any wheelbase.

For example, rather than having a wide wagon wheel, or a nice fast straight, there will be Chicago-boxes, chicanes, and tight 360 turns, that's what I meant about obstacles.

ViperASR

If I can offer you a piece of advice on course design, I would avoid the "do a 360 around a single cone" thing. Other than that, sounds interesting.

To bad the CFRC is a piece of shit facility. You won't be seeing any of the regular S2000 racers out there after we got screwed on the last "time attack"

SteveOO

I can promise you that we have changed, for the better. We've listened to the feedback and have made the appropriate changes.

SteveOO

I have just been notified that we are ordering a timing system tomorrow and it should be in before the Shootout, so no more finger delay excuses!

Mrwilliams

i've never been to cfrc, but after hearing from this guy and a few other s2ki member's not so good experience, i gotta say, i am a bit intimidated about participating. i'm down to spectate though

SteveOO

Fair enough, just don't promise yourself that you won't race after watching for a little bit.
