Both days will count towards points event #5. You can come to both days or just Saturday or just Sunday. Your best time from either day counts for the points event so if you come both days, you get twice the looks. The course will be the same both days.
This is a disadvantage for anyone who can't make both days, or for those who want to run a different class for fun on Saturday. Plus, just changing a few elements (or reversing) can make for a good varied course. Just curious, what was the reasoning for the new format this year?
Just my opinion, no big deal; it's still two days of fun autocrossing, and I'll be there.
James already summed it up pretty much and might I say I'm jealous Mr. Short, 4+ beers in at 2:11 in the afternoon, very nice, wish I was on vacation. The idea of using this format this year was to encourage two day participation primarily. This format has a long history with the club as James stated, the last time we did it was
Laurinburg in 2005 which doesn't seem that long ago to me but I guess I'm getting old. Once we started running the NCAC as a two day event this type event format kind of dropped off the table. Before Laurinburg in '05 and before we lost the old Rocky Mount site we used to run a two day event there every year running this format, we also had Hawaiian Tropic trophy girls every year brought to us by Karl Kaufman who was actually at the NCCAR event this year. I even have photo evidence of this somewhere I should put in digital format. That is a tradition I have honorably tried to preserve at least every few years when we host the NCAC, I will not be doing so this year for Jimmy V, I've already spent enough of the clubs money this year. It was also a tradition to have a club poolside party Saturday evening, not sure how the Hampton will feel about that. Photo evidence of this is
available here. I'm quite sure the Hampton won't be allowing glass beer bottles poolside.
