I am wondering how many NY area schools would be interested in a regional SAE car autocross. I had proposed this idea to some schools last year with some positive feedback, but never got around to organizing anything.

The event could be run with help from a local SCCA region, especially with timing/scoring equipment, and finding a good site. The other would be to do it all ourselves at one of our schools.

How many of you guys out there would be interested in something like this? We're in Troy, NY (15 min north of Albany). The closest schools to us are:
NY: Columbia, City College of NY, Cornell, RIT, Clarkson, Syracuse, SUNY Buffalo, and us at RPI
NJ: Rutgers
Mass: WPI, MIT
CT: U of Hartford
RI: Brown
and our neighbors to the North

That's 12-15 schools potentially, within a 4 or 5 hour drive. With the geographic spread, Albany seems to be a pretty centralized location.

If I could get some feedback as to who would be interested in coming and when, maybe we can start working on organizing something.
