Sunday, Sunday, Sunday

The Midwest Corvette club is having an autocross at the Dakota County Technical Center on Sunday 30 August. Crouse (Curt) and I will be there showing the Corvettes and Miata's how the big cars do it.:P

$30 for six runs. Pretty cheap entertainment.

Come watch the cones beg for mercy:eek:

With any luck someone got the big black sedans dodging cones. I only murdered two cones:eek::eek: all day. I think Curt had a clean day:bows:

Awesome pictures Jeremy. I will try to make it out there for the next one and I'll bring a camera with. Can you describe the layout of the track? The one they set up at the fair grounds here takes about 40 seconds to run through.
