autocrossing is so fun no matter what car you got. i went to my first one last fall and two-drivered my cousin's stock 90 dx civic. despite the crappy car with crappy tires it was still a blast and way easy to over drive the car. we got up to about 60 i think in the long straight too. what i did was just walk the coarse a few times to get an idea of it, but i just wasnt sure of it yet, so my first run i just cruised around slow so i knew how it drove and everything. (plus i had only driven the car for 5 minutes once before to get the hang of it) after that i just tried to blast through as fast as i could and improve on the things that were slowing me down. each run was faster than the last too. its really rewarding that way. i cant wait to be semi-competitive and be able to compare myself to other racers.
