Nice run. First time I've ever seen an autocross where the course was not only marked by cones but also white lines. What did they use for that???

We were the only heat that got rained on. So we only had two dry runs and everyone else got 5.

This kart of his had it all. it was a nice looking thing with laptrax and stuff built in. I felt bad for him cause on his last run he was looking even faster, then the exact moment I thought SPIN--- he spun.
He was fine. No damage or anything. Just a littel dusty.And I cheered.:o (by accident...well sortove by accident
)Oh well, thats the competition part.
All in all it was a GREAT day of racing for Red5.

We actually use the "baseball line marker" dust because flour was too apt to be blown by the wind and mess up the timing lights (plus a light rain would wash it away before the last heat). And yeah, we do use the broom trick.
I try to get newbies to come out to our events because they're so well chalked, much easier than starting off at Sharonville or Cardinal Stadium, nothing but a sea of cones.
I don't know how Red5 did so well on that course, I couldn't find any time out there; but I'll keep comparing videos...
