I believe novices are allowed for both VCMC and UBCSCC, logic dictates that everyone who are veterans were once novice so I don't see how they are limiting it to seasoned drivers. I've attended one of these and basically you sign up in groups A,B,C,D with A being the most advanced and fastest and D being first timers. I was a novice when I did one of these last summer and drove in Group D. These events are truly a blast for everyone who likes to push these incredible machines in a safe enviroment.

I think what you are talking about is the autocross events held in Maple Ridge airport, not the actual road course in Mission.

When the heck are you putting those new tires on?? Don't even drive (much less come to a meet) with those wrecked tires, buddy. It's just not safe and asking for trouble.

As far as I can tell, having tires is usually a prerequisite for coming out to meets.

Okay, just so you know, we don't street race at these meets. We do go for a cruise, but nothing crazy (okay, those of you who've been to these, just keep your mouths shut ). I just don't want you to get the wrong idea as to what's in store at these gatherings.

Vince, I hope your being "out of town" isn't for business or work or something silly like that.
