    Welcome to a brand new street car event called Road Trip – Cars and Cones 2016.

    The Road Trip event is scheduled for May 2- 6, 2016 and will be a traveling autocross caravan. The Road Trip will begin in Concord, NC and meander through four states, concluding in scenic southern Indiana.

Raffle prizes include everything from suspension kits, ultra high performance tires, big brake kits, batteries and chargers; up to a complete set of wheels and a full chassis. Nearly all raffle prizes have a minimum $1000 retail value!

      I signed up, this is going to be fun! I love getting into new stuff. I was thinking of taking my 67 442 convert, but maybe I should see if I can talk my bride into letting me take her '61 Vette. BTW, I've never autocrossed before, but I have been wanting to for a long time. This event is getting me off the fence and into the mix. I'll have to try to learn how to do it asap this spring.

          Bring both cars! I think first timers will enjoy it as much as the seasoned guys/gals. I know I am excited to see the turn out and all the sweet cars that are guaranteed to show up!

            I can't see the rules as the logo covers most of it.

                  It starts in a month! Who else is going? I needed to get my car dug out of storage and see what it needs.

                    The only autocross event that I can find around here in April is already booked up. So I will be coming into this autocross as a 100% newbie.
                    I know I'll screw stuff up, but I hope my car holds together. Looks like I'll be driving the 67 442 convert. Tires are 225 70 R14 ta radials on the stock Magnum 500 rims

                              Not sure yet Vic. We have the hotel for Sunday night but Kathy and Dennis want to get out of town fast as we can. So we might leave Saturday and sight see along the way. I hear they may be a new Dinner to check out in lower VA. So we might be in your area on Saturday. I will talk with them next week and try to make a plan.
