FAST @ Tampa Bay Downs - May 9, 2015

[Loren]

NEWS FLASH: FAST Championship events will now be known as "FAST Open Events". Still the same split-format autocross with competition towards our annual championship, just with a name that makes it more clear that these are unrestricted events, open to all!

We're nearing the end of snowbird season, which means Tampa Bay Downs is becoming available to us again!

May 9th is the date, registration and full event info is here:

Be sure to share that link anywhere and everywhere!

Here are the basic event details:

• This is a FAST Championship autocross, that means that it is open to all licensed drivers.
• Novices and first-timers are encouraged to enter!
• Pre-registration is REQUIRED for all drivers, and closes 3 days before the event.
• Driver entry fee is $37, guest entry fee is $6.
• Guests are NOT required to register at Tampa Bay Downs unless they want to have lunch with us.
• Guests can watch from Racetrack Park without registering or even signing in, you can bring your kids out! (but they have to stay in the park area)
• This will be a split-format event. You can enter the Early session 8am-1pm or the Late Session 12pm-5pm, or both.
• Lunch and drinks are included for all drivers and registered guests.

Bummer...this conflicts with kids soccer...I was looking forward to this venue!

Have fun!

I hope I can make it. Also glad to see the name change to "FAST Open Events" it's much clearer now.

I'm in. Got the Nissan straightened out today, again, (bad cat, O2 sensor, blown resonator this time) hopefully this is the last issue for a while.

Just signed up for the morning session

I will have family in town that weekend so can't stay all day (I would love to drive both sessions since this is on the doorstep for me)....

See you there, for my first event anywhere other than Brooksville

And don't forget the Facility Map to help you and your guests figure out where to go!

[Carracer]

This looks like so much fun, I really do hope I can somehow make this.

[Tim_M]

Looks like fun...can we move this to Sunday???

[Carracer]

What is the limit for number of entries? I know brooksville has a site limit but I can't remember if that applies to TBD.

[Loren]

The limit is 50 drivers per session, which we sometimes fudge as far as 54 per session. That generally gives us about 45-50 drivers per session after no-shows, which is what the split format was designed around.

Sounds like a fun day is in your future!
