Location: Probably somewhere near an autocross.
Six runs, fun runs, trophies, packed and on the road by 4 PM. It was a really fun course @ Wilmington's new site.About twice the size of Gville, they laid out a 50 second course that had something for the Vettes as well as the Minis. Who'd have thought that 3rd in Pax, (me) would be buying dinner for FTP, Bernie? Congrats, Sweetie.

What is the surface like (grip, bumps, formula car "friendly", gravel (aka Sanford) )???

Thanks!

Brand spanking new asphalt so not dirty or gritty. It's smooth, but not quite as good a grip as Sanford. No grates that were anywhere near in the way, and no light poles. It would be great to see you come out again.
