Chicagoland MG Club: Driveline May 2019
Autocross


Autocross


Depending on when you receive this our first autocross of the season may have already happened. More about that next month. Remember to register early for these events on MotorsportReg.com. Go to the Windy City Miata Autocross schedule and double click on the date of the Autocross. This will take you to the MotorsportReg.com website where you will
register as a NON-Member, Non-Miata. Cost has gone up slightly to $40. Please drop me an email @ wb9rro@foxvalley.net after you register so I have some clue who to expect. I usually get there about 8am. After you check in you will be given a map of the course and the opportunity to walk the course. I strongly suggest you do walk it and also follow along on the Novice walk. The novice walk will give you a lot of good pointers about how to drive the course. Drivers meeting is usually about 9am. YOU MUST attend the drivers meeting if you are going to drive. As Sparky pointed out it is best to plan to use your first couple of runs to find your way around the course. It can be very confusing the first time through. Don’t worry if you get a “DNF”. Don’t be afraid to ask Pat or Tim to ride with you and help you get around the course.

Our next outing is July 27th. Our final date of August 10 has been canceled. We may reschedule depending on available dates. Toby Keith is playing a benefit for veterans on August 10th so Boomers has cancels our event. I’d be mad if this wasn’t such a good cause.

If you don’t want to drive you can still join us and cheer for those who are running. Also I would really like someone to take pictures of the MGs while they are on the course. It makes the articles more interesting for the Driveline and those of us that are participating can only take pictures during our “Rest” period. So we miss those that are driving while we are working the course.

I NEED A PHOTOGRAPHER! PLEASE!
Til Next month. Jim Compton
