NCR Autocross #4—July 22, 2007
sponsored by Gravity Performance
by Joe Kraetsch, NCR Autocross Chair
We had 49 drivers for Autocross #4 on July 22. This was a lower turnout than expected, possibly because of the conflict with DE at Mt Tremblant, possibly because of summer vacations and possibly because of the rain forecast earlier in the week. The forecast changed later in the week and we were treated to perfect autocross weather—sunny, temperatures in the low 80s, and a mild breeze. Those who came out to drive were rewarded with five runs in the morning session and another five runs in the afternoon. This was ten runs total and a relatively smooth event in spite of our generator dying sporadically. Ron Mann from the Northeast Region was there and generously loaned us the NER generator which was stored nearby.
I would like to thank Ron Mann and the Northeast Region for the use of their generator. I would also like to thank all the morning workers who worked double duty to make the event run so well and Kevin Bobbitt for coming down to help set up even though he couldn’t stay and drive. Most of all, I would like to thank Gravity Performance for sponsoring this event and providing t-shirts to the winners.
