An Airport 1

On Saturday, Ryan pulled the SW11 up to Edmonton for an ASA auto-x at Namao air base.  This isn’t a venue I’ve ever been able to drive.  I guess the three hour drive has been a deterrent, but in addition to that a background check is required in order to get security clearance to visit the base.  I feel like I might have to undergo the effort though…

…that’s auto-x? Definitely not as I know it. Looks like a pretty sick venue. Not a course I would walk three times as usual though! His description on youtube reads “Slowest run of the day but only one that recorded”.   He actually told me not to post it… but check out that course!  It’s not a great example of driving, but it is his first run of the year. At the end of the day the result was a good one: 1st overall, and 2nd in PAX. Pretty nice with two former SCCA champions present, and a host of other very experienced and respected drivers. Good venues always bring out the best.
