Autocross Challenge at the 2005 Rotary Revolution!

Indianapolis, IN- Want to find out how fast you really are in your rotary vehicle? In 2004 a lot of male attendees felt they were pretty fast on our autocross course. And yes, there were some decently quick times throughout the day. So, we decided to throw down the gauntlet and challenge all of our attendees to see how they compare to a ringer (or two).



Lateral G proudly welcomes Beth McClure-Strelnieks for her first appearance at the Rotary Revolution.

Now we can already hear our past autocross winners scoffing, so let us bring Beth's credentials to the table.
Nine years experience autocrossing and road racing with the SCCA
Former contract driver for BFGoodrich Team T/A
2004 ProSolo Overall Ladies National Champion
2002 ProSolo L2 National Champion
2001 ProSolo L2 National Champion
2000 SSL National Champion



Impressed yet? Ready to see how well you run against a former champ? Well be prepared because when she decides to take a breather and spend some "quality time" with the attendees we're going to let her husband Erik get behind the wheel (he THINKS he can beat Beth's times).

Who's Erik you might ask? Well, let's just see what his resume holds:
Twenty years experience autocrossing and road racing with the SCCA
Former contract driver with Bridgestone Tire Corporation
Former contract driver with BFGoodrich Team T/A
McKamey/Evolution school driving instructor six years
2004 ProSolo SS National Champion
2002 Solo II SS National Champion
2001 ProSolo SS National Champion
2000 ProSolo SS National Champion
1999 Solo II SS National Champion
1995 ProSolo2 Stock 5 National Champion
1995 Solo II ES National Champion
1990 ProSolo2 SP3 National Champion
2003 Mazda Rev it Up 4th place overall finish

It's all in good fun, so come on out and compare your times on our two autocross tracks to Beth and Erik, and help us welcome them for their first appearance at the Rotary Revolution!

As many of you know, there will be 2 autocross tracks this year.

Our team of three track designers just finished the layouts for next year’s courses. In addition to much shorter lines and improved traffic flow, the new courses were designed to test entirely different aspects of your driving skills. Track one is in the same location as in past years. It has been lengthened and expanded to give you more driving time. The second track incorporates a portion of the road course with a long sweeping turn.

You're really gonna like this

Something like this:

Standard track on the left. Track with a portion of the road course on the right.

If I am not in desert, I wll bring my FD and compete. I am no national champion but I still race SS and proudly beat Z06s when I race. I will be excited to see the more experienced drivers race.

Dan, the two autocross tracks, two days of drag racing and seminars are all included in the basic registration fee. On Saturday you will just get in your car, pull into the staging lane and decide if you are going to drag race the car, challenge autocross track 1, or challenge autocross track 2.
