Z34Luminasty 32 Report post Posted February 8 1 hour ago, Imp558 said: SCCA meeting tonight and finally dates on the calendar. This year autocross events will be Sundays so they can set up Saturday nights so those weekends are June 9th and July 7th. Sunday could be better for us since not everyone will want to attend autocross for various reasons so some may just want to head out. Track walking will be around 10:AM, racing will start shortly after. Damn! I won’t be able to make either one of those. They’re race days. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vipmiller803 492 Report post Posted February 8 That June date doesn't sound too shabby actually... My trip got pushed away from June and the Detroit Grand Prix will be over by then. I like it. 2 Imp558 and Psych0matt reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Imp558 4,399 Report post Posted February 8 It would be Friday the 7th -Sunday the 9th if we do June. if the consensus is that autocross is not important then realistically we can do any date all summer here in Erie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Psych0matt 2,424 Report post Posted February 8 I like the idea of autocrossing, and that is a weekend that I already have off so that would work out great, but I wouldn’t be heartbroken if we didn’t do an autocross event. It’s only about a 4 1/2 hour drive so I’m all for that, I would just have to make sure the GTP hasn’t developed any issues from sitting all winter LOL 1 Imp558 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
White93z34 1,006 Report post Posted March 3 Sorry for being ~5 months late to the discussion. I'd potentially be down for Erie. Its only 1,5 hours from me. I feel like Erie has been an enigma for years now, lets make it happen. Life's changed since the last Toledo meet I made it to, I could probably make a day trip on Saturday. I'm probably a couple years out from making a entire weekend due to the little one Autocross, I don't care, my shits too old for me to want to really rag on. And lets be honest If I know us, 60% of the crew would be just as happy in a salvage yard (though IIRC Erie's are seriously shit-tier), 35% would hang around and just be content and 5% would have interest in something else (AutoX, Tracks in general, Antique stores, Firearm ranges). But don't let me be a old man and spoil a good time. Like I said I'd likely only be able to make it up for a day trip on Saturday. 3 Z34Luminasty, Mach 5 and Psych0matt reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
runt 741 Report post Posted March 4 Erie is 2.5 or so for me so not out of the question. I'll keep my eyes on this thread. Might not be in a W at the time but I'll just park far away from everyone. LOL. Being June, and assuming I'd only make the day trip, I'd likely ride the motorcycle assuming it isn't going to rain. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Imp558 4,399 Report post Posted March 5 Erie has a paved oval, a dirt oval, and a dragstrip. Our dragstrip is garbage though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Imp558 4,399 Report post Posted April 29 I'll have something this week. I thought I had a motel but when I went to see it it wasn't up to par. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Imp558 4,399 Report post Posted April 30 Checked out a few more motels last night. One was better than the others but still a house next door. I'm going to look at another now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Psych0matt 2,424 Report post Posted April 30 Unfortunately it looks like I’m probably going to be out, if it happens in June. The way things are going, if our house sells then June the last month that we are in our house, moving to our new house Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Imp558 4,399 Report post Posted April 30 Do we all want to do july? It doesn't matter to me but I should probably know before I make plans with one of these motels I've been talking to Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
