Come AUTOX with us, I will even pay your entry fee ok, but i will put money on the fact that you are NOT even close to being competitive. What autox allows is you to bring your car to the limits of its handling capabilities ina controlled enviroment. You will NEVER be on the ragged edge like you are autoxing, driving on the street.
Hey I know it sounds boring as $hit, come to a parking lot and go around some cones. That is what I said until I did it. OH BTW I am a "real racer" I have quite a few races under my belt, yeah road courses not DRAG, and I think AUTOX is more challenging that Road Racing.
