Cool video about Auto X
Well I am picking up a civic as soon as its running again(burnt valve so the head is getting replaced). I have been tossing around the auto x idea for a long time and this video pretty much sums it up if you aren't familiar with it.

Re: Cool video about Auto X
I dabbled in Autocross before I bought my first Jeep (1992). I was one a few racing with a truck at the time.

From the days before digital cameras... 1.3L cone squisher.
![]() I enjoyed it (wandering around the pit areas checking out cars was half the fun), but it's like anything involving cars- "Hey, I can run it in a stock class and do this on the cheap", but a few months later, you've moved up several classes and have spent more on the car than you paid for it, and then some asshat with no insurance rear ends you at 40mph and the car is destroyed the week you finally got it fully sorted out... and you wind up in a Jeep. |

Re: Cool video about Auto X
I'd love to take my car out to autox one day. Hopefully before I die of old age it'll be finished.

Re: Cool video about Auto X
Wheel your Jeep!!!!! Its a $900 car thats in good shape. Need something to drive so I can tear into my jeep anyways. I'm sure if I get the Auto X itch I will find a way to get a WRX. NOt in the cards right now. Look at an auto X field and see how many people run civics. Now go do some school work like a good boy!

Nothing against civics, just people seem to make them out to be something they are not. It's like with anything else, sure it will get the job done but the other people out there with an actual investment will look at you as if you were wheelin with blocks. |

I would love to auto X my 87 supra but the thing is a serious pig and would suck on a tight course. I would also be in such a high weight class I would be up against corvettes/vipers and the such where I would stand no chance ha. |

Re: Cool video about Auto X
That Civic in the background is one of two at regionals that year- they had been trading the #1 spot for a few years. They're basically go-carts in Street Prep trim (some IT prepped road racers were also in the same class- they were almost as hopelessly outclassed as my RX), and they did very well. It's not just because they're cheap.
