Sad but true.

 

yup

List + 1:
You know you are AutoXing too much when you watch the weather channel 14 day forecast to see if you can run on your summer slicks, in the winter (wonder how many other people autocross in rain and snow)

 

It helps to be where snow is minimal or non-existent. There's 6 or 7 event days here in Dallas for Nov, Houston has an event in Dec, etc.

If you buy an executive track membership you could run almost every day if the financial resources can support it.
