AutoCrossing
Anyone here go to them, or race in them?
I've been to a couple, but never actually raced it one(due to the fact that I don't have a license yet), but my brother seems to do pretty good with our car(shared car, main reason to get a 240).

Definately give auto-x a try. Its a great way to safely learn the limits of the car. The worst thing that could happen is that you hit a cone in the process of honing your skills. I used to do them when I was in the US. Had a blast at those things. Used to trade off cars with friends just to see what their car had. The only thing expensive about them was buying the tires that I was going through.

I see you gave in and bought one of your own. Let me guess you do aleast 10 events a year right? Only really started out to do the close one a few miles away? I had that happen to me. Who knew I'd end up clearing my weekends for racing.
