NWDE has slightly re-scheduled their June event to Saturday the 21st, so now you can do a WWSCC / BSCC double-header weekend.  This is event #4 in the WWSCC Championship Autoslalom Series for 2014, and it will be held at Sanderson Field in Shelton, WA.

The origin of the event's name is the pronunciation of the club's acronym: NWDE = "nude".   Drivers are, however, expected to wear clothing in public.

ONLINE PRE-REGISTRATION FOR AUTOPILOT IS NOW CLOSED.  You're welcome to join us at the event and register on-site Sunday.

Bill Zerr took his second PRO1 class win in a row, and the overall battle in that class between Dieter Beldi and Glen Hernandez tightened to a margin of less than 0.6 points out of 500.  Watch out for Kevin Dietz, though; he's missed a couple of events but his 3-event total of 298.166 makes him a likely contender as the season progresses.

In some of the Stock classes, Scott Dixon has firm control of SA; Kurt Rehm leads Gene Baker in SB; Rick Smale is 4-for-4 in SE.  All three were winners at Autopilot.

ST2 and ST3 have good races going, with Nick Ruiz presently on top of ST2 (but Greg Lee has won the last two events he showed up for).  ST3 shows Geoff Clark winning when he makes it out  (with Dan Podhola not far behind), but the current season points leaders are Russ Hill and Larry Carnahan.  An interesting battle of Miata vs. Neon ACR.

A fun treat at this event was the attendance of five enthusiastic Chevy HHR drivers, led by Dave Lawniczak's now-familiar (and mean looking) dark blue 2009 version.  Sam Dai came on top of the group who ran in NovPM, and Seth Butkey showed the versatility of his black (with purple flames!) HHR by helping bring most of the course cones back to the equipment truck when the event was over.
