So you’ve finally got that car you’ve
always dreamed of. Where can you go to drive it? I
mean really
drive it? The Sand and Sage Sports Car Club has the answer.
. . . Autocross!
What attracts drivers to autocrossing? Maybe it’s the fact they can safely
drive their everyday car on the edge without fear of damaging anything. It’s
just you against the clock, on a course defined with traffic cones. If you make
a mistake, you’ll only knock over a few cones. It’s great fun! You’ll
learn the same skills professional racecar drivers learn. Things like heel and
toe downshifting, the correct line through a corner, trail braking and more.
You’ll learn how to dial-in your cars handling with simple things like
tire pressure and alignment. If you’re into modifying your car, the clock
will confirm if your upgrades helped, instead of just believing some magazine
article.
