Jeff, any plans for marking off the cone location during setup? Most autocross clubs use chalk, or sheet rock, to make a white border around the cones. It washes away, and really usually just wears off due to the elements within a day or two.
One of the things I noticed at RTTH last year was that the cones weren't marked. Technically, the course changes every time a hit cone gets replaced.
I've got a ton of sheet rock that I can bring. I hope to be there early enough to help you out with setup.

I'm glad you reminded me.
If we mark the cone positions then it will easier to replicate the course on the second day ..
If you bring some sheetrock pieces or chalk , that would be great ...
Thanks ..Jeff Tate

Jeff, although it's a little late in the game, how does one become a sponsor for the event?

I can't believe this event is right around the corner. I'm so freakin' swamped! It will be nice to put my brain in neutral and just enjoy the PSMC.

It's nice to have an excuse to hang out...
I can't wait to see all you guys again.
To me , the event of hangin' with your buds , and driving the cars full-out is what's important.
No matter how big or fancy the event is .
I can't wait.
I work on ways to improve the event all the time.Jeff Tate

Jeff, couple of questions that I hadn't seen asked yet:
1. restrooms at the autocross? As I recall, last year they had the building open for that kind of thing...
2. food / drinks at the event: is anyone providing / selling food & drinks, or is it a bring your own? If someone is providing / selling, is it cash-only or cards accepted?
I know they may seem like silly questions, but for an event in our hot-as-heck Georgia summer, it would be good to plan ahead. I've been to several events in this kind of heat and it's REAL easy to get dehydrated / etc. I'm going to bring a cooler with some drinks, so if anyone forgets theirs I'll have a few extras.

I hate to bring this up, but I'd suggest blocking in the cars at night since the locations of the track and hotel have been listed. Brian and I were discussing what happened to the air ride Guys at the Braselton Bash a few years back.

Car alarm systems are getting cheaper and if you have one like me you can sleep at a motel knowing that if anybody screws with your car about 600 people will find out! Parking where you can see your pride and joy from your room, Agreed Value insurance and LoJack also provide some piece of mind.
Sleeping in your car works too...if it's a cool night.

Jeff I posted in a different thread but haven't had any response. Is it possible to register last minute and are newer cars allowed to attend? My Falcon will never be done at the rate I am going but I can always bring the wifes Mustang (06).
