    how many runs do you guys get in a day and how long is each run on average?
    we usually get in 6 runs at anywhere between 45-60 sec's a run...
    this year i think it will be a little longer since we have more space to set up course.(50-75secs)
    Last weekend we had 100 drivers and got 6 runs. My quickest run was 39.9 and the FTD was in the 35 second range.

    The length depends on the site we are using as well. Our region likes to have a course with at least 2 cars on course at one time which means only 1 or less crossover.

    Really early or late in the season we have access to a lot at an amusement park that is huge. Run times there are in the 70 second range with a distance covered of over a mile with no crossovers.

    We also have access to part of Michelin's proving grounds in South Carolina which is a 'lake' of perfect asphalt which is about 1400' x 600'. But the costs for that site are a little higher and the remote-ness of it only warrants about 2 events per year. Times there are in the 70 second range as well.

      sweet, we have a little more room this year so we will be able to send a 2nd car once it hits a certain point on the course. But all last year we had to wait for the car on the course to almost finish before we send out the 2nd...

      aww all this AutoX talk is getting me amped for next weekend.

                  omg back from the dead. This video is from this past weekend at zMax dragway in Concord, NC. I was driving an 2007 Mini Cooper S in STX class.
                  The run is total crap, only run I coned on. I think the time was 83.xxx



                  Oh and you can even watch it in HD!
