Advice for first auto cross?

[tocheck]

Thanks for the advice everyone. The weather wasn't very good but I decided to trailer the car to the event and see what happened. It rained all night and threatened rain all morning but thankfully we only got a light mist a few times. Because of the weather only a few cars showed up. I was able to make as many runs as I wanted, having to wait in line no more the a minute or two. There was a SCCA guy there to help people that wanted it. He walked the track with us and then took me in his car around the course a few times. Starting out the track was very wet and I spun out the second time around. As the morning went on the course started to dry out and I started running a little faster each lap. I had no idea how well these cars corner! I know it could have gone quite a bit faster but felt I was at the edge of my ability at this point. Needless to say, I am hooked now too. After working with the coach from SCCA I am going to go to one of their events. If it is as fun as what we did Saturday, I am joining up.

Thanks again, the advise was very helpful.
