I just read this months motortrend and they talked about this type of street autocrossing. It sounds pretty cool and not to expensive. Im looking for anyone with information that has done this or is currently doing this.

Thanks,
Jeremy

solo 2, the best way to have fun with your car. i do alot of autocrossing with my school, but i havent been to a SCCA event.

talk to speedtoe.

I've done rallycross which is done by the SCCA. Its a very similar thing, except off-road instead of on-road. I love rally cross, and I've heard autocross is sweet. Celica's do very well at rallycross too, if you get interested.

I run Solo 2, it's a lot of fun. Haven't been out this year yet, but I will try to race on the 27th.

Im lloking for information on where to go to these events, how much it costs, what I need, what should I Do to my car...etc..

Thanks for the info so far >>

Go to:

SCCA Page

They have info on rallycross on the "Rally" tab, and info on Solo II in the "Solo" tab. It has an event calendar, and a locator to find your local club, as well as a number of Q&A type pages, to help you understand all the different kinds of racing you can do. Good luck, its a kick!

What does it cost: Cheap. Generally $35 per event, depending on your local chapter (at least for Rallycross, I think Solo II is about the same)

What should you do to your car: Besides buying a GT... Keep it stock. Its the easiest class to run in, and you'll get a feel for if you want to do anything to it. Also, if you do decide to go out racing an oil change/tune up/inspection by a mechanic can be useful.

If you have any more questions, feel free to drop me a line, and I'll see if I can help you out.

Auto cross is the most fun youll have in your celica.
i've done it once and now im so hooked on it! 35 might seem expensive to some people but its well worth it.

$35 aint bad at all.

id go with a friend and we would drive his 1.8T. I was going to start this spring but plans changed and I ended up deploying. So ill start next year for sure.

Theres one close by here in Cincy. I am going to go to that one. Umm do I need a helmet? Also, how do the races actually run... I mean how is it structured N stuff?

A good Q&A site for solo II:
It is a few years old, but the info is still right on.

Yeah thanks too! I am really interested in this now, and sounds like a cheap and cool way to really have fun with my car.
