Default Autocross sucks!

Seriously. Why would you spend all day to race for 5 mins in a parking lot? I can go to Gandy and race all night for free.

At Gandy your car will get inspected by uniformed "tech inspectors" courtesy of
TPD or Deputy Sheriffs who will also write you a "citation" stating how fast your
car was going while they were using official timing devices provided by tax payers.

There is a charge for the citation, but if a person glues them to
the roof of the car on the driver's side, that will impress the next uniformed
tech inspector who stops them to issue a citation for their driving skills.

Collect enough citations for displaying a person's racing skill on Gandy and a person
will be receiving time-outs for 30 days, 90 days, and one year. Driving during
those time-out periods will result in a free racing suspension for your car.

Sometimes as a bonus, a person will be sponsored to free housing and food while
the free racing suspension is applied to their car.

And if you don't want to talk to the cops,
