FAST Autocross - Brooksville - Dec. 12
I hope to make it out there then. I know my car isnt really suspension modded for this kind of thing but I figured I would test the limits of the car safely and if I like it take some action and make a few mods.
competing with other cars in a class is really fun.
remember this event is at Brooksville so you will need to preregister before the event to be allowed on-site due to Homeland Security rules.
I hope you go and the addiction hits you

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

Heads Up, folks!
Just wanted to remind everyone that this is one of only TWO opportunities you'll have to autocross in the month of December, and THE last opportunity in 2009! Miss this one and you'll be carryin' your autocross jones with you until January 17th!
On top of all that, this event is going to be pretty awesome! (dare I say "legendary"?) Why? Because we're running not one but TWO courses! We'll be splitting into groups and running them both at the same time. Switch courses at lunch and do it again. You're looking at about 12 runs (possibly more) on two different courses!
All that fun, plus the World Famous FAST lunch, for just $30. You can't go wrong. So, spread the word on the other local car forums. We have a 60-car limit, and this would be a great event for us to reach that limit.
For those who aren't familiar with Brooksville autocross events, a couple of important things:
1. YOU MUST PRE-REGISTER - no later than December 3rd. (that's next week!) This is due to airport security rules, we can't allow you on-site if you're not on the list that is submitted a week prior to the event.
2. YOU MUST BE ON TIME - if you show up after 9am, nobody will be at the gate to let you in.
AND LASTLY, just to answer a bunch of questions, I'm going to regurgitate the info that Steve posted at the top of this thread:
