We hosted an enduro weekend for our autocross season kickoff this year, running the same track Saturday and Sunday, with Saturday doing 4 runs of 2 laps as practice, and Sunday one run of 5 laps for the enduro.  Both were points days for our Club members.  The track was very fast, the weather perfect, and we had a very smooth event.  Our thanks to everyone who made it out to race with us!

Saturday, David Winterburn got his JBS Sports Racer out for one squirrely run before suffering a mechanical failure – the one run was good enough to take the Top Time, with Danny Ide about a second behind in the Willys, followed by Shawn McNeely in his SSM Miata.  Sunday,  it was Shawn McNeely taking his first ever Top Time win, followed by Danny in 2nd, with Nate Woodmency in 3rd in his VLR Kart.  PAX both days went to Blake DeWit, who has returned to the helm of an ES Miata this year.  Eric Harris was the fastest novice both days in a Mini Cooper Clubman S that by the end of the weekend was missing most of its tread.  Everyone did a great job, we had a lot of novices out for their first time racing, and we all had a lot of fun.  Photos will be up on Facebook soon.

The start of the Shasta AutoX Challenge Series is this weekend, March 26th & 27th, at the Shasta Speedway in Anderson.  We are considering the weather and will confirm by Friday AM if we are doing an Enduro event or not.  If we do the Enduro course, it is two laps per run for practice on Saturday, and one 5 lap run of the same course on Sunday.  Otherwise, we’ll have a traditional autox weekend, 5 runs of one lap, with the course reversed on Sunday.  Both days are points events for Club members.

We had great weather for two days of autocross racing at the Shasta Speedway – a huge thanks to everyone who made it out to spend the weekend with us!  

Saturday saw Nate Woodmency at the top of the speed chart in his KM classed kart, with Jeremy McNeely close behind in his XP turbo Miata.  Garret Murphy took the PAX win in his STX classed 300ZX.  David Winterburn returned to the track Saturday with his newly rebuilt, Hayabusa-powered JBS Sports Racer for some shake down, and took top time on Sunday with a blistering 39.06 run.  Apparently one front wheel touching the ground is enough to steer that thing.  Keith Smith took the PAX win Sunday in his CAM-T Camaro.

Our first autocross of 2022 saw a sunny January weekend and a lot of very close competition!  Jeremy McNeely fought off all challengers to reign supreme over Top Time of Day with a 0.156 margin of victory on Saturday over Shawn, and 0.099 margin over Patrick on Sunday.  Jeremy, Shawn (both in turbocharged XP Miatas), and Patrick (in a wicked Focus RS) were the only 3 drivers to make it into the 36 second bracket.  Saturday’s PAX went to Keith Smith in the CAMT Camaro, and Sunday saw Heinz Simoneit at the top of the PAX scoreboard in his Honda CIVIC SI.  Our fastest Novice was William Schatz in a MazdaSpeed 3.

It was really a great weekend to have fun, shake down some cars, try out other people’s rides, and get some seat time.  We did 6 runs for time each day, and had an extended ‘fun run’ session Saturday afternoon.  Thank-you to all of our volunteers for making it a smooth event, and we are looking forward to doing it again February 19th & 20th.  See you there!
