Autocross is dumb. Closed tight courses where only 1st and 2nd gear are used is what drifting is for.

Kinja'd!!!

The streets is where real driving happens.

*this post is fake and does not reflect the views of what should be done. If autocross is your thing cool but i dont like it*

Hot take, 3 minutes of driving is not worth 4+ hours of standing around in the sun

The simple answer is to:

1. Sign up for your local autocross,

2. Build your car for a very specific kind of driving,

3. Arrive the day of the event and pick up cones first,

4. Get into your drift car,

5. Set the slowest time of the day completely sideways and have the time of your life!

Tepid take: If you’re having fun, it’s not dumb. If you’re not having fun, don’t do it.

They’re sitting in what’s effectively the runoff area at the end of a straight before a hairpin. Here’s the corner from approximately the photographers’ view.

Yeah, autocross sucks. 5 hours standing in the broiling sun for a collective 7 minutes of hard driving.

In some places, all they have is autocross. racetracks/dragstrips are literally needles in haystacks.

Oh c’mon they are special snowflakes. Nothing bad can happen. Kinda like pointing a gun at someone and using a thick book to stop it. It worked once.(Suppository) It should work that way every time.
