Rippy:

Glad to hear that you had a good time.

The secret of autocross is balance. Every time the tires squeel you are losing time. The fastest drivers are the smoothest drivers. They don't look fast but they are fast.

For a good book on autocross you might take a look at Secrets of Solo Racing by Henry A. Watts.

To see what an autocross is all about see http://www.ner.org/soloII/whatis.html

For detailed information about autocross see http://www.tirerack.com/features/solo2/handbook.htm\

For information about driving at an autocross you might like to take a look at http://www.bmwmseries.com/xcross1.html

For detailed driving information you might like to take a look at http://members.home.net/rck/phor/

Good luck and hope to see you at an autocross track someday.

Lester
