2010 Runoff Autocross

TWO full days on the Big West Lot June 26-27
Choose either day or a 2 day combo -- Runoff on Sunday for the big trophy!
Register Online June 5-22 at sdbmwcca.motorsportreg.com

June is the time for our annual Autocross Runoff! Every year we honor the memory of Rug Cunningham during this special two-day autocross weekend, with 7 drivers qualifying for our 2010 Runoff. This is when we find out who’s really the fastest and will get their name on the perpetual trophy. BMW South County will provide a Bratwurst Barbecue to add to the atmosphere. Saturday follows the familiar sequence of morning lap practice, afternoon timed runs, and trophies for class winners. BUT, each first-place winner on Saturday earns a runoff position on Sunday driving the same “mystery” car, like competing in Top Gear’s Reasonably-Priced Car. The rest of us get to enjoy a different course for our second day while the Runoff laps are merged in. On Sunday, drivers who register online for both days may return with ANY make of car. It’s your chance to try out your BMW’s garage-mate. Sunday’s runs are timed for comparison, with as much driving as we can fit in on the new course. Saturday drivers returning in the same car won’t need to Tech again and won’t need Instructors (though some will be available for first-timers). We’ll still run in color groups, and we want you to keep your wrist band and car numbers from Saturday. Three sign-up options are available: Saturday only ($60), Sunday only ($60), or both days ($115 for BMWs).
Since autocrosses can sell out with online registration, don’t miss it! Online registration will be open from June 5th-22nd or whenever the 80 BMW openings and 20 X-car openings are full for Saturday (no X limit Sunday). You can register for both days and select a BMW class Saturday and a non-BMW class for Sunday. We’ll still offer registration on-site if any openings are available for either day after online registration. Check www.sdbmwcca.com for space availability after June 23rd.
You must be a BMW CCA member to participate. The cost for one year’s BMW CCA membership is $48, and you can join online at www.bmwcca.org in advance. For this event, our Chapter gives priority to current members who are driving BMWs or MINIs on Saturday. Members driving non-BMWs may participate if space is available; the first 20 are guaranteed on Saturday and it’s wide open Sunday if you also register for Saturday.
REMEMBER: IF REGISTERED ONLINE, BRING PROOF OF MEMBERSHIP AND ARRIVE BY 7:30 (BEFORE ON-SITE CUT-OFF) TO KEEP YOUR RESERVED SPOT
When you arrive:
1. If you registered online, stop at the gate to sign the waiver and notify the Gate Greeter. Your name will be checked off the pre-registration list. All participants must show their BMW CCA membership card. Those who did not register online will receive a numbered card at the gate in their order of arrival; take it to the Registration table. There is no guarantee that spots will be available for those who wait to register the day of the event.
2. Empty all loose items from your car, then go through the Tech Line and have your car inspected. Bring your Tech card and you will receive Tech and helmet stickers.
3. Take Gate card and Tech card to registration to get checked off for pre-registration or pay your $50 entry fee. You will receive car numbers to place on your side windows.
4. If you don't have a helmet, you can rent one from the club for $10.
5. Your entry fee of $60.00 includes one lunch and unlimited beverages. Additional lunches can be purchased at Registration for $5 each.
Gates will open at 6:30am; tech and registration will open at 7:00am. Tech will close at 8:20am and no cars will be inspected or allowed to run after this time. There is a mandatory drivers meeting at 8:30am and the course opens for runs at 9:00am.
Car Classifications: See the list below for our simple classifications. We also offer the "Gold Class" to any drivers who want to be classified with the Instructors. May the hottest shoe win.
Women drivers and Novices are classified based upon the car they are driving. We also award a Women's Class trophy to the woman with the fastest time, and two Novice trophies to the two fastest novices. This means women and novices will be eligible for multiple trophies. For example, a very fast novice could win a novice trophy and a trophy in his car class. Remember, you are only a novice for the first and second time you autocross, and if you win a trophy, you are now a ringer, not a novice.
Stock class may run any size wheel and tire, aftermarket shock absorbers, and any air filter or cat-back exhaust system. ANY other performance modification, including but not limited to springs, "R"-compound tires, and engine software, puts the car in Modified. We use the honor system. Please class your car accordingly.

• B 4 cylinder models, modified or stock
• C 6/8/12 cylinder models (everything from 1 to 8-Series), stock
• D 6/8/12 cylinder models (everything from 1 to 8-Series), modified
• MC All MINI Coopers, normally aspirated and supercharged, stock or modified
• MS All M cars (M1 to M6), stock
