Thanks guys. Yea it is top notch event indeed. for $150 you get 2 full days autocrossing on a real deal track, 3 full meals, an event T-shirt, shop tour (ours was given by Scott and it was very comical), and get to really push your car and yourself along with about 100 other drivers and friends. good times indeed

Also, they have stuff for kids too: a bouncey-house, a mini-autocross course with R.C. cars, food, i think face-painting.. and MOST IMPORTANTLY... RIDE-ALONGS in the UMI team cars. I don't remember them saying a specific age, but tons of kids were getting 5-point harness strapped into the high-horsepower, purpose built, UMI driven team cars and doing laps out onthe same course we wee running. how cool is that!

Ha yea, I did use your screenshots too! they are pretty cool. I think they are from the 10 minute video on youtube... Our cars are towards the front in the middle two columns of cars. And the blue canopy (R.I.P. broken canopy) is where we hungout when we were taking a break from the perfect weather but hot sun.



Lateral-G.net also did a nice (short) writeup of the event, along with some high-quality photos of cars on the track.

Pro-Touring.com also did a writeup and there are two drone videos after the photos on this page:

I just got a chance to type up my "long version" of the event. It is up in post #1 on this page if anyone was looking for it.



I'll try to get the videos put up here next
