Unknown at this time. They're still working on the autox location, so we'll have to wait and see where it's gonna be. I hope there's no noise restriction, cause with 3.5" duals and straight thru mufflers, mine's probably gonna be pretty loud :D

Awesome! :woot:

Are you guys planning to work with SCCA or do you want to try to use the equipment we have? I know we tried to use it in Houston and couldn't get it figured out. I'm pretty sure we have cones and everything.

it's a decent sized lot. of the three sections of this lot i believe we're getting the lower right one. it has some islands in the middle of it (circled in red)

Has that lot been used before for autox? I don't see how it will work with those islands and light poles is the reason I ask. I can't see it being a speedy autox, but that's fine too. I wouldn't want to be going that fast with curbs and light poles around! :jester:

IMO looks pretty tight also, gonna be a slow autox, disadvantage to CC's? Not trying to criticize just an observation. :D

Now you know how I learned to do the autoX. Clemson U's parking lot was big Oak Trees and cement barriers. As long as they make the sweeping turns going around the trees and not into them you are fine. Even with this, the CC gave many a car fits trying to beat it. But, no FTD's ever for me.
