An autocross is a skill driving event in which one car at a time negotiates a prescribed course, using traffic cones to define a variety of turns. The course is set up so that you are operating in lower gears. During each run you will be able to drive your car at it's limit of acceleration, turning, and braking...and yours. You will develop a sense of timing, judgment, and ability to interpret your vehicle's handling characteristics - at safe speeds and in a safe place.

You're welcome! And I talked to a friend earlier today who's a very experienced driver, cool as anything that's looking for a co-drive if you're interested. I told him to get on here, but he only does about twice a year, lol.

Fun was had. Did terrible but to be on beyond bald tires in a 4 door 4 cylinder car it could have done worse.

Yep. Raised is what usually raises concerns due to the increased possibility of rollover.
