1: Always look a turn ahead of you. Or if that doesnt make sence.... look FAR ahead when driving.

2: Go slow for your first run to "Feel" the course.

3: Make your goal to go as fast as possible without making the tires squeal (A good line with a slower speed will beat the person pushing outside their apex for speed)

4: Do a ride along with someone else (all the pros have NO problem letting you ride along). Actually some pros will ride with you to instruct you a little

5: Have fun

I want to auto-x this summer... Maybe I'll try it. They probably won't let my car in cause it's so ugly, but I can try still, right? lol

Let us know how you do! I've never actually seen a race before, but it sounds awesome! Goodluck man!

well since it is my first time autocrossin, with new suspension setup and all the rest, i am not lookin to pull lancer evo times around the mini track. i just want to see how car handles and go from there. but most of all, after attending the last autocross event of 2006 in my area, i got hooked and decided to to build a weeken track car. It seems like so much fun. can't wait till this weeken

Hey Khoa, I'm planning to get a NASA membership and register for the (HPDE) High Performance Driving Event on July 7 and 8. I was wondering if you wanna come along, since you've been wanting to see what you DB is made of. Just let me know if you're interested. The event will take place at Willow Springs Raceway in Rosemond.
