2014 Series Information
The 2014 "Push It To The Limit" Performance Driving Autoslalom Series is comprised of eight (8) events from May to September, 2014. This series gives the competitor a chance to competitively drive his/her car under timed, safe and FUN conditions.

The courses will be suited for both small and large sports cars, a different course every event. As this is a fun series, the organizers rarely accept protests from competitors, and politics do not belong in Fun times.

We hope you enjoy this year’s series as much as we enjoy organizing it for you. These events will take place in any weather conditions; rain, snow or SUN. If you have any questions, please see the event organizer, or contact the Club at thelimit@rogers.com .

Event Dates Are:
To be determined

Saturday May 24
Saturday June 7
Sunday June 22

Saturday July 5
Saturday July 19
Sunday August 10

Saturday August 23
Sunday September 7

All events will be held at the Bramalea GO Station. Registration is from 7:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m., competition starts following a drivers meeting at 9:15 a.m. Entry fee per event, per driver is $40.00. Any competitor who registers after the 9:00 a.m. deadline will be charged a $10.00 late penalty.

Event was awesome today. Everyone was super friendly and casual. I had never been to an autocross but had a great time. I placed near the bottom but not the bottom :)

What's the point of owning a fun car if you never drive it hard sometimes :)

That course is too small. Try the course in Barrie. It's twice as big. Lol

So Peel police and GO security shut down PITL #2 today after 3 runs citing safety concerns.....

(Figured I'd bumo this thread rather than create a 2015 thread that will not see much use)

When they shut down things like autocross events, an event that gives people the chance to hoon, they do stupid things on the street. I totally supports autocross and can't wait to try it

Ahhhh well then yes, that makes perfect sense :)

It's definitely not the end of PITL, but it does sound like an unnecessary hassle to renegotiate with GO/Peel police. It's not like either of them didn't know what has been happening when PITL has been allowed to use the GO lots.

Anyone else going to brave the rain tomorrow?

Zuluwun
06-27-2015, 07:03 PM
I was going to but I've got too much work/studying to justify going. I'd have loved to go; I've never really done any hard driving in the rain. Also, having not heard anything by mid-week, I didn't expect they'd be running

Even tho it rained all day had a great time.

Mods maybe should rename this thread to not be year specific?

Yes. The Powerade Centre lot is rough. But the course and people are great as usual

Sweet. I have heard that about the Powerade lot, still haven't run on it myself. I was busy both Sundays so far [emoji53] Hopefully, I'll finally make it out to #3.
