The Southern Indiana Region is holding an autocross event at the Mid-American Air Center in Lawrenceville, Illinois on Friday and Saturday, September 10-11, 2004, the weekend before the Solo II Nationals in Topeka.  It will follow a Test and Tune format where you work a little and then drive and test a lot.

Lots of people would like to run the Saturday and Sunday events at Topeka but those events fill up fast and you have to get all the way out there to run. We’d like to offer you an alternative to the pre-event in Topeka.

We are hoping to attract a lot of the right coasters who would be driving right by us.  The autocross site is about 10 miles west of Vincennes, IN off of US 50.  Vincennes is about 60 miles south of I-70 and about 40 miles north of I-64.  Anyone traveling from the northeast or mid eastern US has to go right by us. Hotels are plentiful; just see the list at the end of this document.

The surface is concrete much like the courses at Topeka.  It offers a 40-50 second run with a long sweeper, long straight, decreasing radius corners, a long slalom and some sharp 180's.

Limit 60 entries

Pay via regular mail.

Entry fee is $50

Weather permitting you might be able to purchase a ride with the adjacent glider club or a flight with the local air club.

We look forward to a fun event as we burn those tires in and hone our concrete handling skills on the way to Topeka.
