NTAXS Autocross #6, 11/22/2009, Pennington Field
The North Texas Autocross Series (NTAXS), presented by the North Texas S2000 Owners Club (NTS2KOC), is hosting our sixth and final autocross of the season on Sunday, November 22, 2009 at Pennington Field.
We are dedicating this event to Dennis Rothermich of http://www.autocrosspictures.net/. For those that do not know, Dennis has been battling cancer and he does not have adequate insurance coverage. You might have seen Dennis at various autocross events taking pictures so he can post them for everyone to download on http://www.autocrosspictures.net/. He never charged for the pictures and few of us have ever paid for them, making his work and the site a labor of love for the sport and a gift to us.
When you sign up for this event, you will be given the opportunity to pay additional money as a donation to Dennis. We will also be accepting donations at the event. The North Texas Autocross Series/North Texas S2000 Owners Club will donate all additional income from the event (after covering our event costs) to Dennis. If we can fill the event with all 60 available spots, then we will be able to provide about $1000 to Dennis, plus whatever extra money you donate. We will be opening registration early for this event, on 10/30, in order to provide the most opportunity for generating donations for Dennis.

I am registered, but it has the entry fee listed as $0.00. I guess I will pay on-site, but someone may want to fix that for everyone else.

I just registered and it charged me the correct amount. I am really excited as this is my first event. I've been looking forward to this. Hopefully you don't mind a newbie on the course!

Hi Ryan - Please unregister and then register again and see if it works. It should show the $30 event fee and give you the option of donating to Dennis. Thanks!
