First time at Giants Stadium in over a year due to the construction of the new stadium and it was worth the wait. The lot is large by huge and then some. I ran in the first run group in the morning session. We got 8 runs. Weather was beautiful.
Today was a bunch of firsts for me. First day on a set of Hoosier A6's (used, but new to me), first day using my GoPro HD camera, first time trailering, loading and unloading at an event by myself. The hoosiers seemed to work fine, but I have to learn what air pressures they like. The camera worked fine when I pushed the right buttons in the right sequence. And loading/unloading on the trailer is easy by yourself, just gotta get lined up straight drive it up on there.
Here's a link to the only video I got of the eight, gotta read the destruction manual some more. Skip forward to about the 1:50 which is the beginning of my run. If you listen, you can hear me clip a cone near the end, in the off sets. DOH! Sorry about the sound, lots of windnoise. I don't know if I can do anything about that or not?

I don't know how I finished up with timing, but they'll have the results posted and I'll put a link here when that happens.

If you have itch to try autoxing, this is a great venue to try it at. Big, open, lots of run-off, lots of runs per event. Classing is kinda crazy as they base it on a points system. Certain mods are worth certain points and blah blah and so you end up with some classes full of weird stuff.
Still plenty of fun and a great venue.
