I know this can go in the NorthEast Discussion forum, and it is... Just trying to get it out in more places...
I have been racing with the Philly Region SCCA for the last year or so and I hafta say, it's been a blast! My only regret is being one of the only few Stangs there. I want to see if I can turn more people with Mustangs on to this. If your not familiar with auto cross, just imagine a mini track, setup in a parking lot or airstrip using cones with tight turns, both increasing and decreasing radius, slaloms, and tons of gates. These are 100% legal SCCA sanctioned events where all cars of any class can be competive with each other. Driver skill plays a large portion on this type of racing.
Next event in the area (aside from Ripken Stadium in Maryland on the 22nd) is at Warminster Community Park in Warminster, PA at the old Naval Test Airstrip on November 5th. This is actually the last event of the Summer Series. Entry is free and $35 to race. Normally you can get 4 60 second or so runs in but sometimes 5 if things run smoothly.
I encorage anyone interested to seriously check this out. Like I said its alot of fun. Let me know if you are interested by replying to this post, and maybe we can meet at a common area before heading there. Check out their website for more information.
