Not trying to piss anybody off i just was wondering what is auto x?

 

it is a bunch of weekenders who get together in parking lots and race. Courses are set up with cones in parking lots and you race against the clock. The are like time trials on coned courses in huge parking lots. The are several clubs in virginia that run autocrosses.

www.vmsc.org
www.tidewatersportscarclub.com
www.odr-scca.org

The SCCA runs autocrosses nationally. Solo 2 is another name for autocross. go to www.scca.org

This page will tell you about autocross, too: http://www.vmsc.org/autox101.html

hope this helps.

 

you get to drive like the crazy idiot you are, legally. what more can you ask? heh

 

To add:

It's a great way to test both the limits of your ride and yourself.

You will learn more about how to drive and how to set up sways,shocks,and bars in three events than you will with a year of street driving....

Good and bad:

You will QUICKLY find the weaknesses in your ride AND your driving.

Stick with it and you'll have a bad-ass handling car and you'll end up a MUCH better driver that you ever though was possible, and you'll be able to smoke any Corvette driver through the twisties (except Gill Smith).

so when do these autocross events usally happen

 

Never, they are just imaginary events we all dream of in our heads. There is no cone. We aren't even real, we're just programs programmed to tell you this. Do you want the door to the left or the right?

 

you just saw the matrix didn't you?

 

on sundays. the schedules are on all of the club's websites. the next one for ODR-SCCA is June 1. VMSC has an event on june 22nd.

 

autocross is a great way to screw over your tires.

 

hahaah, i might see you tomorrow. i'll be up at Atlantic to drop off two of my rims to mount new tires.
