Rick - the autocross being slow is what appeals to me. I have no desire to screw the car up or get myself killed. I was wondering how bad the cones mar up the paint. I expect a newby is likely to hit one.

I have to give credit to whoever set my car up. It hooks to the ground and handles better than any car I ever owned. It worries me a little, because everyone on here talks about what a handful these cars are to drive, and I find it easy to handle. Now I caution that with the fact that I have not pushed it hard, as I have only driven it on the street. I do not take chances with the car. Also when I was a puppy, I did build and own some pretty hot cars.

I had wanted to go to run and gun this past fall, but work had me tied up . I didn't plan to take my car. I was just going to watch and see what I could learn. Hopefully next year I will make it.

Thanks for all the advice.

Buy the way my first name is Rick. You have to admit it is a great name.
