The event on the 14th is not an SCCA event. It is sponsored by GulfCoast AutoCrossers. They have a mile long course. I have been there but reccomend you go to their site for Directions as it can be hard to find. I wish you luck if participate they have a nice set-up.

And to answer your Question I am an SCCA member.

I just read the first time part. For your first event:
Sunblock
Helmet (Some clubs have rentals)
Car in decent shape
Car cleaned out (No floor mats things in the trunk/interior etc...)
Everything on the car secure (Hubcaps removed battery tied down)
Lugnuts secure and tire pressures checked (add a few PSI before arriving)
You might need registration and Insurance card as well as a valid license.

If you decide not to go I reccomend the Epcot SCCA event on NOV 3-4th. I should be there BOTH days and will be assisting SEVERAL new people with Registration Tech what to expect etc...

DAMN! that is a GOOD question. I think you need to have your parents sign a waiver if you are under 18. Never really thought about it...I was 18 a long time ago :)

HOLD OFF!
Solo 1? Try Solo2 first. No Licenses from SCCA just your florida DL. Solo1 is a whole different ball game. And clubRacing? Do you NOT love your car?

Hey....you met my buddy brian sanrock the other night. He talked about your civic....said it ran 13.2(i think). thats awesome.

id love to run on down to orlando! but i dont see it happening. isnt there another event later in november? By then i should have some springs and a cold air intake. Maybe even advace my timing! so...whats the scoop on the solo 2 then. that sounded the more exciting of the two. Awesome...things just seem to work for me.
