OMRSCCA Regional Solo2 Event #1
Canceled (see below)
Neosho, Missouri [Map]


After being snowed out on our first attempt, Ozark Mountain Region SCCA's Event #1 is ready to show Winter the door. Join us on our rescheduled date, April 11, for plenty of smooth, unobstructed asphalt at the Crowder College Truck Driving School in Neosho, Missouri. 8)

Register Online!
Due to the date change, we are opening registration with a clean slate. Here's the new link:
[Registration suspended - see posts below]
Note: 2010 events will use online registration via MotorsportReg. Additional registration instructions here.

Event Information Car Numbers and Classes
Car Numbers are exclusive for the 2010 season, meaning only one person is allowed to run a number during the entire year no matter what class you are in (e.g. Car number 76 Matt L in ST, you would not be able to use 76 even if you ran a different class).
Amenities
There are gas stations, Wal*Mart, and fast food on Highway 59 about a mile North of the intersection of MO-D. There is no air available at the site, so prepare accordingly. We anticipate making lunch available on-site.

Directions from Springfield
Take I-44 to US 71 South, and exit at Highway 60 Neosho/Seneca. Go East to the light at US 59/71B (Wal*Mart will be on your right). Turn right to go South on 59, and follow the signs for Crowder College and Highway MO-D. Turn left onto MO-D, and it will take you straight to Crowder College. Once you reach the stop sign at the entrance of Crowder, turn right onto Doniphan and head towards the windmill. Turn left just past the windmill, and follow the SCCA signs and cones to the site.

Run / Work
We had roughly 80 entrants at the previous March event at Crowder. We are watching pre-registration to determine the number of heats. We expect a sizable turnout, so prepare in case of a three-heat format based on a first-come, first-served basis:

Work heat 1 / Drive heat 3
Work heat 2 / Drive heat 1
Work heat 3 / Drive heat 2


Work assignments will be balanced to ensure even work coverage for all stations in all heats. If you show up at the last minute, your choice may be full. If you show up late, you will not be able to participate at all!

See you there!

Looks like this one is also heading towards a reschedule.

About an hour ago, I was just told we have a conflict with a motorcycle training class scheduled on the site for 4/11/2010.

We'll try and get something concrete ASAP.

Any chance Ducks will be "ready" by then?

The reschedule for the snowed out autocross on March 21 has not worked out for April. We tried a lot of avenues to get in a regional event before the Divisional weekend, but it looks like we will have to make it up in months to come.

Crowder College has a very active driver education program, and a motorcycle school also has the lot leased on the majority of weekends this year. When there's a good site, a lot of people want to use it!

Ducks Stadium is in a marginal state of repair. The rough patches caused by the repeated trucking maneuvers were sawed out and packed with gravel, creating a motley surface in places. That does not mean the site is unusable, just that we need some time to examine it more closely to make sure it's ready for the caliber of autocross we want to offer everyone.

We'll work on scheduling a makeup in months to come. Keep an eye on the calendar!
