I would like to address some concerns that I have seen popping up on our new format of "High Speed Autox." Yes this will still be run on the 2.5 mile competition road course. The main difference that you will see between the Time Attack format and High Speed Autox is that instead of doing a chunk of 5 laps (1 warm up, 3 flying, and 1 cool down) it will be one lap at a time. This will allow us to utilize the experience of the Central Wisconsin Sports Car Club / Fox Valley Sports Car Club along with their timing equipment in a familiar format that is certain to be a success. Please feel free to express further concerns or ask questions. I follow these topics closely in the forums, or feel free to e-mail me at [email protected][/B][/SIZE].

Now that you have the road course, this sounds very likely....

 

Truly was a blast last year. Will likely attend again.

 

We will be there again this year, hopefully running two vehicles.

might have to attend if the car is tuned the way i want it when the time comes. what is the difference between autox and road course?

 

the standard autox will be like a parking lot auto x... smaller, lower speed with cones.... the high speed auto x is on the road course, much higher speeds, and follow the 2.5 mile track.

 

Ok cool thanks
