Other Events / Packwood Tour and Pro Solo (July 13-15, July 20-22)
« on: May 08, 2018, 10:32:08 AM »
I can see a lot of competitive spirit in the club these days, and for those of you aiming to go to the next level in autocross and do some touring (hiking/wine tour etc), I would encourage you to try the Packwood Tour and/or Pro-Solo at Packwood, WA in July. 
1. It's probably the most friendly regional Tour you can go to, and they have got used to the Canadians! Ask Stephen!
2. Lots of national champions and national caliber drivers to pit yourself against.
3. Probably the prettiest site of all
4. head to head up against our BC neighbor
5. The Tour will qualify you for the National Championship in September
Many moons ago, Reijo took a few of us down and opened our eyes. We didn't even have the car prep correctly, wrong tires, wrong class and got lost getting there etc ...
We were "chewed" up alive, but we saw where the bar was set.
I encourage those of you who are serious about getting better give this a try, I'm certain you will learn something! Besides, it's a lot of fun.
It may be already too late not because the event is full, but the accommodation in town is limited. There are vacation homes rental available in the area (ask Tom), so if you can find a few people to share the accommodation that would be quite economical.
I am sure Stephen can give you some secret pointers as that was his home region! (And he was past Pro-Solo Champion!)
