There are directions posted on the 411 Dragway website which is on the same piece of property:

Only a couple of more days! To get everyone in the mood, I thought that I would post this video that CathDoc made for me back in 2005. Enjoy!

I hope you all have a fun safe weekend. I wish I could be joining in on the fun but my car isn't back together yet. I will see you all at VIR though.

That wind was brutal today, but the SSLED loves cold air. I'll be running with the exhaust uncorked tomorrow. Bring your earplugs!

Many thanks to the SCMC folks for hosting this event today. This 411 autocross deal is going to be sorely missed. Thanks again for the many years of fun at this place.

I had a great time today. Already back in Ohio though.

I wish I had listened to Jason and gone before today. I was very happy with my 73.434 and wish I could have another opportunity to improve upon it.

Thanks to everyone who put this together.!!

I enjoyed it as well even thought I was watching. It was my first time at the 411. I did talk to this one guy driving a late model (maybe 03) white gt, complimenting him about his exhaust setup, his name might have been Tony, I'm not for sure. The impalas were awesome sliding around and that one black vette could wake up the dead. Leadssled what happened to your car after that last run when you dnf, it sounded like your car just stalled out. I also took a pic of that 07 shelby.

Yeah, it sputtered and died in the turn. It refired and drove fine after I pulled off of the track. I'm 90% sure that it was just a fuel pickup problem. I should have topped the tank off before running yesterday, but didn't. I would have never caught that 2nd place car anyway - he was a full 1.5 seconds ahead of me. But I thought that was probably a 62-second run before it died. Oh well... I had a blast anyway.

Thanks to everyone that attended! It was good to see some familiar faces and or course some new ones. Hope everyone that traveled a distance made it home safe and sound with the weather we were experiencing here of late. There were some people out there driving at 10/10ths Sunday, thats for sure!!!

Well, I am already at work! I had a blast running all weekend, the car drove great, and no serious issues, who needs fender liners anyways. Thanks again to everybody for letting us buckeyes run with ya down south. The 411 was my first autocross, and I am sad to see it go. I seem to have more and more fun everytime I run there. Take it easy everyone, hopefully our paths will cross in the near future!

Quoted for truth

We also had a blast this weekend - I'm gonna miss these jaunts down south. Take care all and we'll catch you soon I hope!

Thanks to the Mustang guys for letting the full figured taxi fleet play. It was a truely great send off for the 411 Raceway. I will surely miss the trips to TN to run it. Hope to see y'all around the other racetracks.
