I decided to go autocrossing at the Lamar Dixon Facility in Gonzales, LA today.
I drove my RS to this event. I arrived at the Lamar Dixon Facility around 8:15am. I helped the other board members partially setup the course on 01/22/22, but due to a rodeo half the parking lot was occupied. After I used a backpack blower to clean grid, I got registered and passed tech, and I walked the course a few times. Our local SCCA chapter splits up the runs into (2) heats. I was one of the Site Safety Stewards today, and I got to run in the 1st heat. We all took a lunch break. Then I was SSS again followed by my final (3) runs. The hero run wasn't enough. I ran in the Xtreme Street (XS-A) class today.
We all got (6) runs today. I love Cenla SCCA! Weather was a 25F cold morning, and rose to a sunny high of 54F.
