Maybe I'm confused by what you are saying, but the link that djlomas posted is an autocross, which is what we're all talking about.

Ahh ok, i just got the terminology mixed up. So autocross is like a parking lot track and track day is... well a real track course, right??? or am i still wrong?

Ah! Alright, I see what you are saying. Terminology miscommunication!

Yeah, this type of event is called autocross... where people mark out a course in a big open area (like a parking lot) with cones, and navigate through/around them. Most people that I know call it a course as opposed to a track. If you just say "track" most people think you are referring to a REAL track.. a course that's completely paved, and doesn't need cones because you either follow the pavement or go into the grass or walls, hehe.

Sammy is truly a gifted driver, 4 seconds faster than 2nd place.

DJ was awesome for his first time out and beat me by 4 seconds as well.

At least I beat two of the STi’s !

Look forward to seeing you guys this Sunday !

Nick

My burn went away as well. Just in time to get burned again at Sunday's PCA event! :D

I still can't believe the times I had... must have been my lucky day...

I'm glad we were able to beat on a few STi's and EVO's because they usually are my arch nemesis (along with S2000's)!

I had such a blast! :dance:
