Snow+Salt+Cold weather > no autox
I do hate winter too. Washing car with hat and gloves on during winter sucks more. Freazing below 10 degrees weather

Green Civic is an unknown quantity at this point
ZZyzx is in Las Vegas. I dont think there is snow there. If you want to autocross year round, come to Louisiana. No snow, or atleast quite a few years in between each time. Last time it snowed here was 1991 and before that was 1984. I cant remember before that because I was born 1983 and moved here 1984.

snow? whats this snow thing you guys keep talking about....?

seriously though, it gets cold here in Vegas durring the winter... Like mid 20s at night. so the only reason it doesnt snow here is because we dont get enough precipitation.

I wanna go race...

lucky! we get a total of 7-8 SCCA runs, and a bunch of smaller runs. I need to move someplace warm!
