TrakTime.ca - Autocross Stuff.
I'm not maintaining this as well as I used to. Watch the dates.
I should probably just link to the
MG club calendar ... I don't tend to drive with the other clubs...
I don't own a porsche, or a vette, and there's some bad will
that hasn't fully faded away regarding vmsc.

I should put a couple blurbs up here about what this site is
about and who I am.
The name comes from an idea I had to form a company/organization who's
sole purpose would be to provide cheap and plentiful track time to autocross
drivers....
The idea is still valid, but the autocross scene has changed significantly
since I started driving in 2000. There are now a fair number of active
clubs and the are several events each month if you drive with all of them.
Due to the limited number of venues, cost is still an issue (although
at least insurance rates are back to sane levels).
This site. Currently it just documents some of the events I have attended.
It is not here to sell anything or convince you that I am great.
In some cases it provides more complete results than the individual clubs
do... and there is accelerometer data from some of the events (and multiple
cars).
Me. That would be Tom Brown, owner of the miata shown above, once an avid
autocrosser, and still president of
baremetal.com inc. You can email me at
tom at traktime.ca .
(Note that traktime.ca and AutoX.ca will all bring you to this site. Hey cool!, so does http://miata.ca/ )
