Not at the moment, and we have a few people waiting for freebie spots if any open up. I'd recommend being at the registration table at 10am to find out. If not, you can always just grab one of the regular spots in the regular heats... of which there are at least 11 or 12 available starting at 10am...

I'll be there from before 8am until at least 6pm, with a ~90 minute drive on either end! So I have no sympathy.

Also you wouldn't need to be there until 10, and hopefully we will be done well before 5.

We love putting on 4-heat events with the half-day format. We have done them before, in fact I think we invented it around here, and other groups liked the idea so much they borrowed it. We would just need a lot more people to sign up (75+ entries to make sure four heats worth of work assignments are handled.)

Regardless, this is your last chance to autocross with NASA-MA at Langley Speedway. And the weather forecast looks perfect. So if you can handle being there for ~7 hours... please join us.

Had a great time today. I was really suprised how well the G8 did on track for a nearly 4000lb 4dr sedan. The handling and balance were better than I expected.
