I've wanted to do this since before I had a driver's license. As a kid I was around this sport all the time. I went with 2 goals. No DNF's (Did Not Finish - means you did the course wrong) and no hit pylons. I succeeded at both and got a bonus at the end of the day. 2nd in my class!!
Where are you located? Do they have Time and tack in your area...

I try to run these 2 to 3 times a year... here are the guys that run it over here in NJ. http://www.realtimeattack.com/

This was last April 2011

I'm near Vancouver, B.C. (Canada) The club I joined (and several other clubs in the area) does do some events at Mission Raceway, but I'm not planning to do any track time this year. I'm not ready to race with other cars on the track, yet. The car I'm doing auto cross with is my daily driver, I need it not broken so I can get to and from work.

I'm not totally dead yet! Got a email from TinyRC on the Mini Z buggies and decided to drop on by...

Now that I have a license, I've been working on cars.

I really want to drive a manual car and get into autocross, but I drive an X5. R/C's have been put on the backburner for a while even though I can't get into autocross.

Nice to hear from you. Maybe it's time to trade the X5 for a 328i 5 spd.

I used to autoX many years ago.

My parents won't let go of that X5; they've spent over what the value of the car is now on maintenance. Plus, I'm only borrowing it for this year until I go off in college so unless it gets totaled, I have to drive it.

Now that I have a license, I might be able to sneak out a few times and play with Mini Z's again. I passed by Maj's on Black Friday when getting some stuff at Harbor Freight.
