It's $25 for non-SCCA members. $20 for members. Only $12 to join our region, so if you attend 3 events you already get your money back.

Also read my autocross novice website: http://home.dejazzd.com/mlouie/autocross.html

We have loaner helmets, so all you would need is money, driver's license, and a safe car. Checking your lugs is #1, make sure you battery doesn't wobble, pedals should return to normal, brake pedal should have feel. Make sure you have at least 40-45psi in your tires.

I'll be working under the registration tent most of the morning. Don't know if you know what my car looks like:

Yes I was the tan Accord... it was my 3rd event. Around the paddock I was known as the nutcase that drove 4 hrs from WV. My brother co drove the Type S with my sister in law, he actually raced past Sunday on the last event too. My sis in law might be running full season next year, it was her first auto x and I think she did well.

Welcome again to the board...

Edit: Finished last in class as usual. The Renault and the Omni are too damn fast for me. I think with more experience I can catch up with them before I need a better car and better tires.
