Registration for the SCCA RMSOLO autocross at Front Range Airport is open at http://rmsolo.org/index.php Come on out and run, spectate, take rides, and hang out with a bunch of other fun car nuts.
It's easy, inexpensive, and a total blast!

I'm happy to help if you have questions, come find me and get a ride in the crazy silver Scirocco too.

not sure I am having problems, but it sure is loading slow. Are you thinking of heading out there to drive on the 18th? I have to look at my calendar, but would like to.

Edit: the page isn't loading for me, and it looks like I will be skiing that weekend in Snowmass.

All signed up! Going to this one. I have done this back home in Cali, so hopefully these are as fun and friendly.

I went to get a feel at the last one.it seemed so well organized and they give the new guys a mentor. If you are at all interested and have the time, I would just sign up and go.

It is a great time. I suggest getting there early 8-8:30 (winter series) getting registered and talking with the other racers. It is much easier to get a feel for things if you talk with someone before the course walk. There will be a novice walk (course) just before the driver's meeting and then the racing begins. New people who get there at the end of registration are rushed to find out what is going on and are ususally "lost or confused" when the driver's meeting ends.
Just come out and ask for Jamie, me or any of the racers. We'll help and get you and your car in the right places.

Do you mean the "RMSolo Autocross Introduction" link? That's a Flash-based tutorial. It won't load at all on most mobile devices, and you'll need the Flash plugin for your PC browser.

Brrrrrrrrr

Also, really fun. Great turnout for such a cold day, solid course, event ran smoothly. Great personal results.

Met coreyblee too.

On the downside, my buddies truck broke down on the way back.
