Hmm, may be able to get some of the other NC/SC guys to go as well, think you could get any of the ATL crew to come up?

Sounds good!! Let us know if you have any questions.

Actually, what safety gear is needed?

Standard autocross -- M00 or better helmet, working seatbelts, car won't fall apart.

I don't know who might make the trek from ATL, it's rather far. We're not looking forward to the 7-hour van ride with diesel at $4.50/gal :-/

Haha, well, I've got working seatbelts, and hopefully the G won't fall to pieces out there. She's got a ton of miles but runs like a champ. I should be able to snag up a helmet before then. This'll be my first event unless I can make a local autocross beforehand.

EDIT: Will an M2005 bike helmet do?

M2005 is newer than M2000 so you're all set with that!

I'm pretty set on going, looks like i'll have my new wheels and 615's on the G as well :teeth:

I believe at least one of my roommates may be coming as well, he's got a very well set up MR2, handles like a go kart.
