The 2010 GGLC Autocross series is sponsored by Boardwalk Lotus

GGLC Autocrosses are designed to allow the Lotus and sports car enthusiast enjoy driving in controlled conditions without random traffic and law enforcement. GGLC autocross is the perfect place to explore the the capability of your car.

The GGLC Autocross season will begin with a practice event followed by a Autocross Clinic. The next 6 events will be points events leading to the 2010 champions. Of the 6 points events, you'll be able to throw out your 2 worst scores.
 

GGLC AUTOCROSS FORMAT
GGLC Autocross events will be will have a limited number of drivers to allow drivers to get a large number of runs. Drivers are broken into groups and the groups rotate between running and working. All drivers are required to work.

Drivers are asked to arrive early to help set-up and to attend a driver's meeting before the first run group.

For newbies and novices, there will be experienced drivers available at the event to give you tips and coaching. Plus, as an added bonus, the GGLC is co-presenting with the BMW Car Club two 2-day EVO Autocross schools at Great America in Santa Clara. The 2-day schools are broken into Phase 1 and Phase 2. Drivers can choose to do both days or just Phase 1 or Phase 2.

Starting with the 2010 Autocross season the Golden Gate Lotus Club is creating a single consolidated trophy for all Elise/Exige variants that replaces all older classes for street and race tires. The new trophy uses a PAX Index which is a commonly used handicapping system for comparing times of cars which are not in the same class. The index is composed of data from across the country, and tries to take the driver out of the equation and compare only the cars. The PAX index value is multiplied against your raw run time to provide single comparable time that shows the driver performance within the car. The points and overall winners for the 2010 GGLC Elise/Exige trophy will be based on the PAX indexed times only.

Assistance- putting on a autocross, is very much a volunteer effort. There are a couple of areas, that we require a pool of helpers to cover. Two or three to get the equipment set up. Four or five to help set up the course. You will need to be on site 7:15- 7:30, to get started.

Thanks and see you at the autocross,
Alex and Colm
