^holy shit I never realized how expensive it must be to put on an autoX event... at least a couple hundred cones at $5 - $15 a pop!! Unless they get them used or something.

For our local region, we need about 70 cars to run for us to break even. we average 75 cars an event........


but we get 8-12 runs per event Vs 3 at most regions (with 200 cars...)

^damn u suck, last event we were supposed to have 4 runs, but we got shorted one due to an assload of people showing up that day. It was kindof cool to see the sport growing, but sad at the same time, I worry that it will get bastardized as with everything that gets popular.

You know what...I just might...


It'll prolly be towards the end of the season, but I just might. You could show me a few things.


BTW...do you guys have a winter series? If so, THAT would prolly be the optimal time for me...



(You're prolly saying "Oh shit, I was just kidding..." ... SORRY man, you made the invite, lol.)

You should come up to Colorado, and run with us. Less runs, but it's a HUGE event every time. We even have it catered!! (Barf wagon, but it's still grub!)

Back to the topic...

one more site that sells cones and other safty equipment.


CivicMexicano, get ahold of the SCCA . I know you are in Mexico, but they may be able to point you at who does autocross in Mexico! or they may be able to help you start a club.
