Please register for the July 21st autocross

Postby EricMarc-Aurele on Tue Jul 10, 2018 9:16 pm

Hello everyone,
If you are already registered for the upcoming autocross, thank you. If you haven't and are able to attend, please register ASAP.

The AX co-chairs have decided that we need to have at least 65 drivers registered to continue with the event.

To be transparent I wanted to make a post for interested members.
The financial break-even for an AX is approximately 65 drivers. This number could be changed by cutting beer, sodas, and only having one restroom. More critical is having enough people working. Both volunteers such as tech, and drivers for cornerworking. (Timing, starter, scanner, gate, and grid subtract from the number of workers available each run group) We have successfully run events with 65 drivers registered in the past, often this has required volunteers throughout the course of the day to work two shifts.

The corner working situation could be alleviated with fewer, therefore larger, run groups. We haven't yet come up with a plan for four or five run groups that allows people to break between cornerworking and driving, and that allows instructors to work with their students.

While we would like as many drivers as possible the AX co-chairs have decided for now to set 65 as our pre-registered minimum to hold the event.

We will discuss this with the board at the meeting tomorrow, and if anyone wants to discuss this requirement further please feel free to post questions in this thread.

Eric, it doesn't seem that the pre-registration email was sent. I certainly didn't get it.

For those that would be helped by a direct link, here you are:

I got one, but it might help if it was sent again. Currently showing 55 as of 2:35 pm with a little over a day left to register.
