OK, I'll dive right into it.....
- Agree. Same venue for next year since the parking lots are great, facilities are great - club level restaurant, concession stands and rest rooms
- Agree. 3 or 4 run groups. Due to the high volume of newcomers, one thought could is to let the newcomers drive with instructors for the first runs of the day, without timing, but still time them to work out any potential timing issues. Then later runs would be the regular autocrossers with Gold Pass drivers. I'm also thinking if there is a rookie / newcomer division, they could pay less and maybe get a total of 3 runs; sort of a "taste of track" for AX. This would have to be set up in registration.
- Agree. I like the actual idea of a physical ticket to give to the starter for the Golden Tickets, when they're gone, they're gone. Just no scalping the tickets!
- My two cents, we should SCCA timing. This way drivers see their times displayed on a large clock at the end of their runs, and they can broadcast driver numbers and names over the radio like at Porsches and Planes years ago. Also need an area to display driver names, times at a public area so people know the standings. Even some spectators who are familiar with AX asked for a display area to post times and standings.
- Agree. on Both accounts of not dumping finish line right into Paddock, some drivers were flying through paddock at end. Also agree about not having high speed approaches and hard brake zones right in front of paddock and especially not in front of spectator areas. That made me nervous.
- Don't shorten it. I think a longer course is something that could be the "signature" for the RTR sponsored event. We do enough other short courses, a long one is nice every once in awhile.
- Agree. Love the idea of having our own AX'ers act as instructors for newbies. Help grow the sport by bring new people in and see that we are a great group of guys and gals.
- Disagree on the two courses idea. That would take double the manpower and also not give us a longer AX course.
- Agree. Provide water for drivers and volunteers
- Agree. On show and shine location along main entrance.
- We'll have to check on having more concession stands open. This would have to be worked out with them as to what is available.
- Maybe place vendors along opposite side of main road entrance from Show & Shine. Foot traffic in that area would be high and car traffic low and slow.
- Lastly can't promise the same weather as last year, but here's hoping we can.
