Looking forward to this weekend. For Saturday, will be on OEM wheels 7" front 8.5" rear, and 255 Yokohama AD08s I pulled off the Z4. Sunday will be back to the STR wheels.
For Saturday, I'm a little concerned about the fronts being pinched, but it should be fun, even if a little squishy!!! Since the C/R will be a B-Stock car, Saturday will be a great opportunity to compare to others without having to buy A6's yet.
The C/R is amazing in stock form with a sway bar!!! It's so awesome that I don't have to fiddle with things -- and no excuses or doubts about my performance -- slow = drive better; fast = good job / get faster.

Next CDC Autocross SATurday July 23rd
Hylton HS in Woodbrdge, VA is the location of the next Capital Driving Club autocross on SATURDAY July 23rd. We will have the football stadium bathrooms open. So you be able to use real bathrooms with running water.
Registration and tech inspection will be at 8:00 am and will promptly close at 8:45 am to try to accommodate the full field, while still giving 6 runs. You must be DONE by 8:45 am. So if you arrive at 8:00 am you won't have a problem. Don't arrive at the last minute.
Due to increases in costs from last year, the event fee for the Saturday autocross is $30 for members and $40 for non-members.
New Bar Codes
Make sure you download the new bar codes for 2011 (some of the early barcodes in early 2010 won't work. So if you want to use last year's barcodes, make sure it is the same format as the new barcodes).
We have a new index for lightweight cars (under 1500 pounds) and the bar codes are now different for small bore cars from the early barcodes. The early bar codes from 2010 just won't work. If you have a car weighing under 1500 pounds, we are in the process of updating it (we can also print it out at the event in this case).
So to be on the safe side, print out new barcodes that can be found on the web forum under autocross section. You have to register on the forum to open the attachments.
If you have problems, you can e-mail me at capitaldriving@yahoo.com or we can also print barcodes for you at the event.
On-line Reservation System
Member reservations (or participants that will join the club upon showing up) for any events can be made at any time at www.capitaldrivingclub.com under "Schedule". Open reservations for non-members for this event begin Friday July 15th.
