Another fun weekend at the silverdome. I ended up 3rd out of 6 in ESP and took 45th out of 180 in the overal pax. The course was fun and required some patients with all the loose gravel (didn't help I ran first)
 
Has anyone else attended any events or plan on from here? I went to the nwor event #2 at the airport in Toledo this last weekend and got 55th out of 201, and 2nd in ESP

With all the different white lines on the course how can you tell which way to go? At :34 & :48 the white lines went on direction and you went the other. Either way it looks like fun with room for run off if you mess up, and don't have to worry about hitting a guard rail.
 
I went to the event on sunday at the Chrysler Plant in Hamtramk / Detroit. I ran my brother in law's Scion FR-S. This was the first time I ran at an auto x , It was a blast. Def. check it out if you haven't
 
I made it to the last MSCC and last CCM events with the wagon. Auto crossing is definitely not a 4300 lb, 556 HP car's element. But it still holds its own.

The CCM course was very awkward for the gearing in both the Wagon and my wife's Mustang. I should have made a run in 2nd gear and would have probably been faster like that but I think I won TFS anyway. It took second to an E39 M5 at the MSCC event. Not bad for the first event in the car I got more than one run in and considering it is on an inferior tire to that car.

The white flower isn't the end all course to stay within. I focus more on the cones. The areas you pointed out like one of them I was hugging the inside pointer cone and going into a slalom that has no white lines at all. I was walk the course in the morning to help know where to go also.
 
The last MSCC event I was even very deliberately crossing a white line between some cones for a better corner entry. Like said, it is really just an additional tool to help keep people from getting lost on course.
