I went last year and it was a lot of fun. Test your skills and just have a good time. We almost got kicked out becuase they let you test drive the other cars on a "test drive" track where you just take it slow. Since there as a Miata there and it wasn't ours . . . we pushed it and they got pissed! hahahah you can say we knocked down quite a few cones along the way.

So is it on some low-speed autoX course, or do you actually get to drive on the track? I went to the HIN where they had the BFGoodrich event where you got to drive a Mazda 6 around an autoX course, but it was seriously underwhelming. Also, are the cars auto or manual?

I was quite impressed by the Mazda 6 last year. It didn't feel like a Corolla or anything, but decent. They were autos with auto stick if you choose to use it. Top speed you ever go is like 30-35 on the mini coned track. Still it was fun and you really put the abs to work on those things.
