Whooda thunk! Finally an event without rain. We haven’t had one of those lately. The re-make of the Spring Thing autocross took place at Pellissippi State Community College, on Saturday, 06.08.13. The day was cool and overcast, but turned sunny and warm, as we brought the event to a close at about 1:00PM. The site used offers the designers multi-challenges, but Clyde Peery, Rick Berry, Rick Brooksbank, and I put together a quick, and flowing course. Our timing equipment worked the entire event without fail, and volunteers from all sides helped in course set-up, course management, chased cones, and helped in a quick clean-up.
A really great event. On the way home, after having lunch with everyone at Doodles BBQ,Carol remarked, “You know… todays’ event reminded me of what the autocrosses were like in the old days…”
She was right.
