I am intereted in trying out auto-xing but don't know where and how to get started. Can someone direct me.

I live in Southern Calif-Los Angeles. Thanks in advance

 

Search on Google for some local clubs, or just try to find a local SCCA region. SCCA.org and then head to the Solo section. Should be able to find plenty of information there.

 

There are autox events held at the parking lots of California Speedway. I forgot what the club name was. All I remember was that they really enforce their dB noise rules.

 

LA is probably part of the Cal Club Region. Check out their site (can't figure out why they have two?) and contact one of the officers.

Our next autoX is at california speedway in Fontana on June 23rd and 24th. It is easier for a new comer to come on the 24th since the 23rd is usually packed really fast by the members. If you come as a new comer you can request a instrutor for your runs and also have an instructor drive your car as well. I would highly suggest coming in the morning (7:30-8am) in order to get a course walk in and also to register as well. Most likely we will be having a new comer course walk where an experienced instructor will take you out on course and tell you how to read the cones and how to take the turns. Also there is a driver's meeting in the morning that you have to attend.

 

Anyone know if any local socal S2000 clubs run autocrosses in the area? My dad picked up an 06 and would like to take it out. The North TX S2000 club runs an event a month here in Dallas.

 

thanks alot guys, nice info!

 

great info thanks! I'm a track guy looking to do autox for the summer (way to hot for a full track day). I'll try to make it to june 24th. Last few times, its been full before I can register. Who do I contact to register for june 24th?

 

june 24th you can register in the morning. come early in the morning so you can get a spot for sure. the 24th is a "championship" but it is actually the easiest way to try autoX since the cap limit for participants is much higher. plus it's cheaper so if you don't like autoX you wouldn't have wasted that much money. also there are lots of things that are geared towards new-comers for example new comer course walk.
