OK. I'm pretty nervous. I'm going to try to autocross for the first time at the Porsche Parade in Charlotte. I need advise. My biggest concern is seeing the course layout. And overdriving. Or being laughingly slow. How should I approach this? I've been reading "Solo Driving Secrets", and done a couple of DEs, but an AX is so condensed. I think if I missed something I would get lost in a sea of pylons.
Anybody wanna guide me down (then over, and back, and over again, and back, and around to the left, then back down) this asphalt path? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) |

It will be different for everyone. I hate walking the course as it just makes me hot. I like to go out hard and fast to get my tires warm quickly. Make sure you look ahead as far as you can. Just start out with what you are comfortable with and then push it after. If you can have an instructor ride with you that would help a lot.
