Mile HIgh Autocross










I did my first RMR region PCA autocross this weekend. Unfortunately, it was the last one of the year. But great weather. A tight, tricky (hence the event name Trick or Cross) course and no breakdowns made for an enjoyable outing. I drove my SC but let a friend of mine drive the Boxster. As expected, he bested me by just a tick under 3 seconds. 

The Boxster did very well. The SC being bone-stock had a lot of push in the slow speed turnarounds. A lowering would do wonders. But than, it would not be as the Germans designed and American safety standards dictated.

Kevin,

I've never done an autocross, but have contemplated it for a while. Would you recommend it?

For sure. Doing an autocross is the easiest, best, simplest way to get into driving your car fast in a safe environment.

And if you do it through the PCA, it is a nice, calm affair. With SCCA it can be a bit rowdy.
