Thanks.
I will fix this on the results. Did you use an index barcode for smallbore?

Thanks for such a great event, course, and atmosphere. This was my first autox with CDC and in the vette. I live 10 minutes away and had no idea you guys have been doing this :oops:

Found my car in the pics and I'm shocked the photographer actually captured a moment where the car was pointed in the direction I needed to go. My 5 and 6 yr old sons made it out for my afternoon runs and leave it to kids to speak the truth. One asked what happened to my car when it made all that smoke and the other asked if i was supposed to do donuts. :P

I recently started playing with doing home alignment stuff and went from 0 to 1.5 degrees camber in front. Went to do the back Friday night and the camber rods were frozen. The car used to push, it was a completely different animal Saturday. BTW, I am very green, so it's not like I would have been fast, it was just incredible how completely different the car handled compared to my last track day.

Here's a link to the video. (I need to raise the mount) It takes vimeo about 45 minutes to make it available.

Thanks again and I look forward to getting out there again with CDC.

Good question... I'll have to take another look at my barcode. I know I signed up for the event with smallbore but my barcode might not be right. Thanks for the heads up!

I thought that we didn't use an index for SB. I know that my time was indexed for SB, but since it didn't change the results at all I didn't say anything.

I looked at a couple others and it looks like their SB time was their raw time, so again, I didn't say anything.

it's not indexed, but you need a different bar code with a special "small bore" tag on it.

I feel like an idiot...

I printed my bar code at the begining and I knew it would still work, although we changed the format to be better for almost everyone. But I was being lazy.

I guess its time to re-print my index (notice my index says I have r-comps, yet I have been too busy to cut my fenders ...)

No worries. We're accepting either format of bar code this season just to give people time to make new ones. The newer one should have the index code on it, e.g. C322S where the 'S' is the small-bore flag. I'll check the code to make sure the old index still uses the registration small-bore flag. If you use the newer index bar code format, it *will* override this flag in case you actually switch cars during the event. We save the index with each run. Next year, we'll probably no longer recognize the old index bar codes.

If you pre-register with the right index, and if you don't switch cars, and if nobody else uses your car (that didn't also pre-register with that index), then you really don't need the index bar code. I did this at the last event (my index flew off at Woodbridge). But if someone wants to take a run in your car, this could cause some problems.
