Well it was an scca event (divisional ) at Salina, KS. It was the long
and narrow East Crawford Airport. The shape dictates high speeds to a
certain extent, but in my opinion, this one got out of hand. They used
to hold the "Mirrorkhana" at this location for about 20 or 25 years.

Last I recall....Autocrosses were considered 'low speed' events with
courses
to be designed to limit top speed to about 70 MPH for the fastest cars. 
I
suspect this was not an SCCA sanctioned event.

Subject: [F500] gearing ratios

I topped out in gearing at an autocross the other day with my 5.58 ratio
final drive gearing. What ratio would I need to gain another 5mph in top
speed? I bet there is an internet site that would answer that for me. A
125 shifter cart clocked 104 mph at this event!!!!!
