Hey guys, I'm going to my first autocross april 22nd. I don't know if yall have heard of spokes, but its a texas autocrossing group and they're coming to a stadium parking lot like 5 min. from where I live on the22nd. Best part is, the price for a non member is only 25 bucks. I'm so pumped. Anyways, give any advice if you have it! later guys.

awesome. is this a private club event? i highly suggest having an instructor ride along with u every run...maybe even let him/her drive ur car just to show u how fast it really is. make sure battery tie down is tight, lug nuts are on tight, tire pressure is good, any loose items out of the car are out, all the fluids are at correct level, and floor mats are out...

Thanks for all the tips...i think i may have my dad run with me, cuz he does racing with scca in a spec racer ford and his been top of a few autocross classes back when he had a corvette z51and other cars in the late 80's.

also check your throttle cable, make sure it is nice and snug....check tire pressure too, exp if you are on poopy street tires....

and dude, when you actually get out on the track, if you arent hearing tire squeling then you arent going fast enough....lol

part of tech inspection, you need to have all loose items out of the car.

thats why...i kno some come with little clips or w/e but others dont and they will not make exceptions. saftey is the first thing when it comes to events, thats why tech inspection is stressed so much and we have drivers meetings where everyone thats on the event grounds must attend so they know the rules and all the saftey precautions.
