My local organization is hosting an SCCA divisional in 2 weeks at the Tire/Vehicle Test Center in Pearsall Texas: the grippiest 800 x 800 ft of asphalt in the state, and the course designer is regionally-reknowned Roger 'The Real' Johnson. Its just outside San Antonio Texas.

Huge selling point: SCCA trial memberships are FREE!!
For more info: http://www.spokes.org/TVTC.htm
If you sign up by this weekend no late fees!! And registration is $50. That is ~$25 cheaper than a national tour, and you get the SAME experience!!!

Locally we have 3 SCCA 2005 national champions, several multi-time national level trophiers, and some 7 SCCA boardmembers (SEB and class boards). This is what is so great about this sport: you get to go head to head with the best, see how you measure up, talk to the boardmembers and then at the end of the day: share a few drinks with them in the SPOKES biergarten.

If you live anywhere near by, and have EVER wanted to autocross at a big event, this is one you can't miss....
