The event everyone's been waiting for! For those keeping track of such things, this event will count as the third autocross of the 2012 Championship Season. This time we'll be in sunny, and hopefully dry, Laurens, SC. This is a joint event: points will count toward both SCR and CCR championships.

Anyone age 18 or older with a valid US drivers license is welcome to participate. Our apologies to our younger drivers. The age limit is a Michelin rule.

NOTE: Join SCCA today (first-time members only) and we'll waive your entry fee! Go ahead and register without paying.

E-mail your membership confirmation to membership@scsportscar.com and we'll credit your event registration.

Michelin Proving Grounds is a limited access site. Getting in is easy, but due to the site configuration, getting off site requires a pause in the event. Exit times will be worked into the schedule throughout the day as time permits. Please plan your schedule, and that of your guests, accordingly. Because this can make lunch-runs a challenge, we will bring in sandwiches for those that pre-order. A sandwich, chips and drink are available, if paid in advance, for $5. Order yours on the on-line registration form.

In my opinion, the site is BETTER than ZMAX - Big, perfectly flat, and NO LIGHT POLES OR CURBS ANYWHERE. It's just way out in the middle of nowhere. Look it up on Google Maps.

Couple of site notes: Michelin is FANATICAL about preserving their surfaces and safety. Traffic inside the site is ONE WAY - pay attention to the signs. Jacks/Jackstands must have something under them. Bring a couple pieces of plywood.

SCR has posted a couple of event hotels in Clinton, SC:
The Hampton Inn is offering $84 a night for a room and $94 a night for a one room suite. Their number is 864-938-1040.
The Quality Inn is offering us $55 a night. Their number is 864-833-5558. Mention you are with South Carolina Region SCCA.

Entry is nearly 160 now and growing. If you can get away for a Saturday event, this one should be on your list.

Just remember, bring your lunch, or sign up for lunch when you enter. Leaving the site is difficult and there's really no place to go for lunch anyway.

220 drivers at last count. 50 in Pro. This is going to be fun! :redcool:
