Default Eddyville Midnight Madness & AutoCross this Fri. 12th & Sat. 13th???

I was on Eddyville's website checking to make sure everything is a go for this Friday nights Small tire challange and Midnight madness and stumbled onto this Saturday they are having an AutoCross put on by the Mustang guys MICC, for non-members like myself it'd be $30 and they use both return roads and the circle track if i understand it correctly..... thinking about going to run either my C5 or my murdered out Yaris lol

Anyone going?

I'll be there Friday night as will brandoz28 - he got his N2o hooked up and I (think I) got my problems that I had last time sorted out. Too bad the yellow mustang is sitting on a trailer broke, I was gonna give him a run this time STAY AWAY FORECASTED RAIN!

When they say both return roads you mean the paved roads in the pits right? The last time I heard there was auto-x they used the gravel for some stupid reason and some poor dude rolled a pristine Mopar (can't remember the make )

sweet about the N20 - can't wait to see you guys run

Dunno bout the return roads thing, from what it looks like from the pics on MICC website its the return roads thats at the end of the dragstrip, as far as i can tell the entire autocross track is east of the timeslip shack aka at the end of the track....... i can't even think of any gravel around at Eddyville? That blows about that dude rolling it...... i might have reconsider this idea lol

it was on the OTHER side of the track, behind the tower. I don't know all the details about it.. it was a long time ago, so maybe I remember it wrong. :p

I'll be there! I just hope the weather stays away... driving down from Ames for nothing would suck bad...

ksths - good to hear! Hopefully you can hook that **** up on the spray, would be nice to see you get a clean pass.

If they do reschedule stuff I'm down cause I want to play now that I've got everything kinda sorted out

News flash: the yellow mustang is broke

Take it to TriState, it is a better track & worth the extra drive. Or go to kcir, it takes about the same time as to get to CFR.

Probably going to hit up the Eville Friday night deal.

No shows!

They canceled the Midnight deal, glad I got there early enough for some runs. I was one of the only cars that showed up to race that wasn't trailered there. Pretty pisspoor showing, only 15-20 cars ran tonight.


Made 4 full pulls & 1 aborted run.

Here they are, in order of when I ran them.

60'=1.59, 1/8=7.34 @ 93.17
60'=1.61, 1/8=7.39 @ 92.86
60'=1.78, (Peddled it a few times @ gave up, ran 11 something & hotlapped it straight to the burnout box.)
60'=1.58, 1/8=7.31 @93.56
60'=1.59, 1/8=7.32 @ 93.57

DA was pretty dang good all night 1200-1300 above sea level, even with crazy high humidity & the track hooked nicely.
