About Autocross
Autocross is a driving skill contest that not only tests a driver's ability, but also a car's handling characteristics. A course is set up using traffic cones at a low hazard location, such as a large parking lot. Course speeds are no greater than those typically encountered in legal highway driving.
What attracts drivers to autocrossing? Maybe it’s the fact they can safely drive their everyday car on the edge without fear of damaging anything. It’s just you against the clock, on a course defined with traffic cones. If you make a mistake, you’ll only knock over a few cones. It’s great fun! You’ll learn the same skills professional racecar drivers learn. Things like heel and toe downshifting, the correct line through a corner, trail braking and more. You’ll learn how to dial-in your cars handling with simple things like tire pressure and alignment. If you’re into modifying your car, the clock will confirm if your upgrades helped, instead of just believing some magazine article.
