We aim for 7 cars per session. Works pretty well.

Slow-ass cars are fine, as are slow-ass drivers. All we ask is that you be safe and if you're holding up a faster car/driver, allow them to safely pass when appropriate. Beginners will have instructors riding along to keep them out of trouble and help them learn the track.

Forgot who said it - but it was something along the lines of "It's more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow".

and

"the most cost effective car upgrade is always to the nut behind the wheel"

both apply 100% to the Primus Track Event.

well....It seems that I'll be picking up a 2004 Camry 4cyl 5spd very soon. I already planned on autocrossing it, so this might be fun too.

BTW: What classifies you as a beginner? I have Auto-x'd too many times to count (although only once in the past 1.5 years due to not having a car). I have also auto-x'd with sunriders about 3-4 times.

4-cylinder Camry... slow, but reliable!

We start just about everyone out in the Beginner group just to feel them out and see what level they're at, make sure they grasp the "not an autocross, can't drive at 11/10" concept, and get them comfortable with the track. The only exception we might make to that might be for someone with lots of actual track driving experience.

Your autox experience gets you in the door. Without that, or some other racing experience, we probably wouldn't even consider you for the Beginner's group!
