For eveyone, click the link and read the procedures. Only 100 will be able to sign up on June 4th at Noon EST. The remaining 100 spots will open up June 5th at 7pm EST. I know I'll be sitting at home to register, and my guess is that it will be a nightmare. - AB

I'm really on the fence. I've heard that this is one of the most fun autocrosses you'll ever do. But, the Peru National Tour is that same weekend, and I think I would benefit from going heads up with the likes of Wynveen, Hahn and Disimo in AS. I think the practice at a National event would also help me going into Topeka this year, since I've never done one of these before...

Decisions.

But yeah, I think this thing will fill up really fast.

You'll have more fun in Atlanta, I promise. Atlanta >>>> Peru no matter what the event is, IMHO. I'm a big fan of concrete, but if your problem is still not enough loud pedal, that will only get worse up there. That said, sometimes insane grip has the opposite effect...it's easier to get big balls and really go on it. Something to consider, though.

Peru is also notoriously hard on cars. And it's a lot further away. If I was autocrossing that weekend, I can say for sure that I'd do Atlanta. This from a concrete addict, too.

I don't see any of those guys signed up in AS? Disimo has been running STS2 this season, Haven't seen Wynveen or Hahn out yet. Altho Bullis and Flynn would be a good benchmark. 4 soli drivers out of 8 entries...
We'll be in Atl practicing for running on asphalt at Topeka.

Thanks for posting this. Although when I saw the subject line I was thinking I'm hosed since navigating an unfamiliar site on a Treo would be the suck.

Needless to say, I was thrilled to see that it won't open until June.
