Lone Star Chapter BMWCCA Night AutoX!
Saturday, September 14th, 2013

Limited to the first 35 cars registered!

Our intent is to have drivers do at least 5 runs in the daylight session so that they can familiarize themselves with the course… With 15-20 drivers and a course time of about 50-60 seconds. Ideally, drivers should also be able to get at least 4-5 runs at night.

3:00 Course Setup
3:30 Tech Inspection Opens
4:30 Driver’s Meeting
5:00 First Car Off – Group 1 – 55 mins
6:00 First Car Off – Group 2 – 55 mins
6:55 DINNER BREAK

The dinner break is a chance to enjoy the Texas summer sunset, grill, cook out, and socialize in a way that we just don’t normally do at most autocross events since everyone will be taking a break at the same time! Food can be cooked on site, or brought back from any of the restaurants in town.

8:05 PM first car off – group 1 -55 mins
9:05 PM first car off -group 2 -55 mins
10:00PM Finish

Most drivers have the best results by driving with headlights OFF and parking lights and foglights ON… E36s and E46s do this well..

Keep in mind that the NIGHT autocross is on Saturday. The regular points paying event is on SUNDAY. Normal times apply for the Sunday event. The price for each event is $30.00

Registration is now open for the Lone Star Chapter BMWCCA Driver Education weekend at Motorsport Ranch in Cresson. We’re running the 1.7 mile configuration in the CW direction, and the weather is usually perfect for October events.

Registration and more details can be found at http://msreg.us/LSCFall13DE. We’re offering Early Bird pricing until September 23rd, after which the price of registration will increase by $30 for the weekend. Registration is only being offered for the 2-day weekend – no single day options this time.

NOTE: If you want to attend a future BMWCCA DE at Circuit of the Americas, and want to be eligible to register in the first tier of invitees, you must have attended a Texas Region BMWCCA event in the 18 months prior to registration opening for a COTA event. Registering for and attending this event will ensure you are on the list of those eligible for a Tier One invitation.

Questions regarding the event should be sent to:

We hope you can join us!

Let’s support the Tejas chapter and join our fellow BMW enthusiast at the ALMS event.

During the ALMS event at Circuit of the Americas on September 20-22, Tejas Chapter will be hosting an official BMW Car Corral on behalf of BMW CCA, sponsored by BMW NA.

We will have a 30′ x 30′ white tent, approximately 20 chairs and 4 tables, and a video setup that will display the same programming as the Jumbo-Tron near the main entrance.

COTA is also offering a reduced-price ticket and parking package for those 3 days for $139 per person that will include:

• a ticket holder & lanyard
• close-in parking
• reserved grandstand seats
• a group photographer
• pit walk
• a select number of “hot laps” on the circuit itself for purchasers of the package

We will have club information on hand, including flyers on the club itself and membership benefits, the BMW CCA Foundation, and their Street Survival Course.

Volunteers are needed from those who purchase the Corral ticket package to staff the tent and greet visitors, which will include representatives from BMW CCA National and BMW of North America, along with numerous club members from across the country. This is our chapter’s opportunity to put a face on the BMW CCA and Tejas Chapter for this event, and everyone’s help will be most appreciated. We anticipate that with enough volunteers across the 3 days, it won’t involve more than a few hours’ time working in the tent, but all volunteers must be event ticketholders.
