Cool weekend for Vancouver autox!!

Saturday (PCA) and Sundays (VCMC) course will be the same, but run in opposite directions, which is what you see at big competitions like SCCA National Tour.

I'll be out sunday, who else planning to be out there?

Went both days. Got tanned on saturday and more tanned on sunday..

Awesome weekend, really good layouts very open and technical at the same time.. Excited for Porsche's auto event on May 27, 2012.

Also Dina & Gene asked me to get the word out for BC Champs on June 22-24.

Get a chance to Race the new Scion FR-S. Everyone gets a chance to race it and the best time get a prize.

BC Autoslalom Championship 2012

Hi folks!

The 2012 BC Autoslalom Championship is being held June 22-24th on the newly expanded 10 acre Pitt Meadows skidpad. This year's BC Champs will start with test and tune on Friday, competition and fun runs on Saturday and will end Sunday with the final day of competition and the weekend highlight - the 'Scion FR-S Equalizer'. All drivers will be given a chance to drive a new Scion FR-S, with top times winning prizes.

Registration is open at BC Autoslalom Championship 2012, with an early bird rate of $95 until June 1st. The Ramada Inn is holding rooms at a special rate of $99 (standard room) and $109 (kitchenette) until May 23 - info can be found at www.bcchamps.ca/location/accommodation

Trophies will be awarded to top novice, top PAX, and for all group winners. There will be many other door prizes and cash prizes for drivers. Your entry includes the event t-shirt, free appies at the Saturday afternoon pub social, and entries into all the prize draws. The Lions Club of Maple Ridge will be serving food and refreshments on both Saturday and Sunday. Money raised through food sales will go to support camps for kids.

This event is the first in the three event Western Canadian Slalom Tour that includes a two-day event at Namao Airforce base in Edmonton (July 14-15) and the Super Slalom Credit Union Centre in Saskatoon (Aug 31 - Sept 2). This three city tour celebrates 50 years of ASN in Canada and highlights some of the best venues in Western Canada. Special prizes will be awarded to drivers who participate in at least two of the three events. Info can be found at http://www.bcchamps.ca/2012-western-...an-slalom-tour

Update April 26, 2012
Maple Ridge Lions Club will be at BC Champs serving out coffee, soft drinks, breakfast, lunch and snacks.

If you are planning to attend -and I really hope you are- consider leaving your food at home and buying from the Lions Club instead. Every dollar you spend at their kiosk will go to projects and camps that help kids on the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island. The Lions also raises funds for BC Children's Hospital.

The money you spend at the Lions Kiosk will help our future members, BC kids.

Woot.. Signed up.

Just a heads up, this is a perfect chance for novice drivers to come out and learn how to control their car.. Very relaxed and friendly environment.. Doesn't matter what you drive.

If it's wet out, are you going to go up against Ken for his title for Drift King?

Lol I'm too slow to try and match DKen, really hope it doesn't rain though, although it'll be interesting to try out the AD08's in the wet. Learned a lot more with these new tires than my old S. Drives, handling is more neutral and I could see the effects of throttle control very clearly

Are you gonna be running R Comps?

I wish I could run my R Comps, but I'm pretty sure it'd going to rain... Can't run them in the wet... the AD08's will be so much better.

I want to try them in the wet though, see what they're like. The R Comps were a little too much for me... I couldn't get a good feel of how hard I can push it. I definitely need to lay down power a lot earlier.

There is a steep learning curve with R-comps. They "mask" a lot of driver errors and bad habits.

Street tires is where it is at. Late into the salom, the tires will tell you you are trying too hard to make it up. Late on your braking point, again the tires will tell you.

I'm still undecided if I want to go out this sunday and try the R888's in the wet.
