Default What is the Best Forum to Discuss Autocross Driving Skill?

I have some questions. I could ask them here but isn't this more an S2k specific forum, more on setup and prep than driving?

I've googled around and the few forums I've found generally seem to have one post every few months. Others are also focused on setup and prep. For example, Grassroot Motorsports has headings "Build and Project Cars", "Tech Tips", and "Shop Talk".

I'm more interested in how to approach certain types of turns (e.g., a tight left 50' past the start), etc.

Thanks,

David

Who orchestrated the Josh Owens for DavidNJ trade?

Does this person really exist, or is this just a super long-con troll? if it's legit, can we combine all these threads into one and sticky it or something?

Josh ended up at Miata.net from what I was reading in the ND section. Still the same 'ole guy making new friends




So I wonder how many people registered here...

I am 100% that DavidNJ is a humorless cyborg sent from the future to kill the Racing and Competition forum by relentlessly asking idiotic questions until people like us come home from work (Work: something OP clearly does not do because he is able to monitor this forum 24 hours a day) and respond to his half serious, half "you gotta be f@#king kidding me" questions.

http://www.sccaforum...grams/autocross Ditto. I would have expected more, but it is basically a dozen posts per month, nearly all on equipment or setup.

http://www.solo2.org/ Another regional site with cobwebs. This time St. Louis area.

Let me add http://www.corner-carvers.com/, which I thought would be the answer. They even have a racing and driving sub-forum. That has more posts about Indycar and Jenson Button be robbed than about autocross.

I'll match my google skills with most, my driving skills seem a bit rusty but I'm applying WD-40. The question is posted because either the answer is not obvious (the case here), there are conflicting opinions, or the practices mentioned elsewhere are different from what I understand to be best practice.
