my FIRST autoX I'm road racing this friday and I'm doing my first AutoX next Sunday(4/25)
i'm doing both of these events with stock shocks. i got all my parts, but wanted to
learn how to autoX on my first time with a pretty stock car. and i don't feel like installing
all my stuff for road racing this friday and taking everything out the next week to autoX.
i'll run stock on both
parts in my garage waiting to be installed:
JIC coilover
neuspeed front strut bar
neuspeed X-brace
cusco rear strut bar

Autocross is a good thing to learn, even if you plan on road racing. It will teach you how to read the lines, and get you thinking "how should I go in to or come out of this corner, to better set me up for the next."
and I think you may enjoy having the car on its handling edge for 70-80% of the course, Just think of it as a road course with all the straight-a-ways removed.
Good luck with both!! and keep the shiny side up.
