The next CMC Autocross will take place in South Portland at the Jetport Annex lot (up behind the Turnpike Authority off RT-22) on July 25. This is a change of venue (from the Colisee). This will be our only event at the Jetport this year.

Preregistration is open for both the Saturday and Sunday event (you must register for each day). Follow the link below, and select "CMC" as the club. Preregistration will close Aug 16 at midnight. Pre-registration discount will not be available after that point...
Your next chance to test your ability at A/X with CMC will come on July 11 at the Lewiston Colisee (same venue as yesterday, but a different course). While this one does not have a Subie theme but that should not deter you.
I dare say talk to any Subaru driver that was at yesterdays event and...
SNELL M is approved for A/X is DOT M. Just need to be 2000 or newer. But there are loaner helmets. Yes there is car sharing, car numbers should be chosen so that driver switches can be made without interupting the flow. Look forward to seeing you there, my avatar shows my a/x car.

Event insurance allows higher speeds than we run here in southern Maine. You can expect higher average spped and higher top speed on the Loring Tarmac.

It called an "optional slalom". You must go through the slalom, but you can choose which side you start on (and alternate sides from then on). Typically there is entrance advantage to one side and exit advantage at the other end. SO you must determine which "advantage" is better for you...
Yesterday I did a site visit at the Loring Commerce Center (the former Loring Air Force Base). In a word the pavement areas of the airfield are IMMENSE. CMC will be holding an autocross utlitizing runways, taxiways, and staging pads. This will be the largest A/X course run in the US this year...
yes, should be available on the CMC home page. Get your parents to sign it in advance and just bring it to the event. Or if they come to the event to, then you can fill everything out on site.
Does it have lower a-arm rot, if so you would be well served by an outfit in Rhode Island that makes weld in patch kits to fix it. Very robust and I highly recomend them. I have installed the kits on two different cars with great results.
