MoHud SCCA Auto X Sat and Sun April 25/26, 2009

Just realized that there isn’t a thread for this auto X yet or an (un)official shift attendance thing yet.

Here’s the MoHud SCCA auto X schedule threat that Eric (EJEvo )made:

MoHud’s website (auto X is “SOLO” ):
http://www.mohud-scca.org/

Location: Adirondack Community College ( 640 Bay Road, Queensbury, NY 12804 ) :

Google Maps puts it at one hour on the dot away from the Crossgates Mall and I87/I90 junction in Guilderland, so nothing crazy far away.

Schedule:

7:45 am - Registration and Tech open
8:30 am - Course open for walking
9:15 am - Registration closed
9:30 am - Tech closed
$10 late fee for late registration
10:00 am - Drivers Meeting
10:30 am - First Car Off

If you plan on attending more than one or two of the MoHud SCCA events this year, it would make financial sense to become a member of the SCCA. If you’re under 24, this will cost you $45 per year and if you’re 25 or older it is $65. Being a member brings registration costs per event down from $40-45 down to $20-25 (I can’t remember the exact costs from last year). On top of the lower registration costs you get a packet full of useful discounts, from car parts distributors to rental car companies and a year subscription to “Sportscar” magazine which is loaded with auto X, rally X and other tips, parts, accessories, reviews, articles, etc.

Some more information from Eric (EJEvo):

Pretty good, Ryan. Just some quick corrections - I want to make sure no one misses out on discounts if they decide to get a membership:

Event entry fees:
$25 - member
$40 - non-member (aka “temporary membership”)

First Gear membership (< 25yrs old) - $45/yr
No membership fee discount beyond the First Gear discount.

Individual membership (25+yrs old) - $80/yr ($65 nat + $15 local dues)
Discounts:

  1. If someone is interested in an Individual membership, make sure you get a referral from a member, and you get $15 off your 1st year’s membership fee ($80-$15=$65). Just ask a member for their membership number to put on the application.

  2. If you decide to join later, you can apply up to 3 events’ temp memberships towards a full membership ($15/event - up to $45 total = $35 up to $65 for 1st yr membership).

Lastly, a note on temp memberships:
On those weekends where we have 2 events (like 4/25-4/26), 1 on Saturday and 1 on Sunday, since a temp membership is good for 3 days, if you enter a Saturday event, then you pay the member price ($25) for the Sunday event.

Hope that helps. If you have questions, just let me know.

Awesome, thanks Eric, just added that to the first post.

I will be there to rule all…discuss…

I feel like I should go take pictures…

Thats a great idea…we never get to take pictures because we are kinda busy doing car stuff…i only get a chance to take pictures at track events.

Someone drive my ass up there, the Eclipse hates it’s life.

I leave from c.p…thats where the batmobile resides…

theres a batcave in c.p? who knew…

updated first post.

There are a couple of batcaves in C.P…

I’m pretty sure I’ll be there- just gotta get working on ‘de-winterizing’ the heap.
