Hey guys like the title says I'm a newbie to competition racing and I would like like to starting doing some autocrossing or track events. I've never been a track driving a car before but I've been wanting to start for sometime. I'm really just looking for some advice and helpful input to help get started. If it helps I'm located in Northern Jersey. Thanks in advanced....

 

Go to www.scca.com and find your Local AutoX chapter. AutoX and HPDE events are very different, but both teach you how to handle your car. I think it's good to start out at AutoX, then move up to some HPDE events, also, AutoX is alot safer. As far as things for the car, you don't need to change anything when you AutoX...

 

www.nasaproracing.com (look at your regional site's HPDE program)
www.chinmotorsports.com

both have comprehensive track day instruction for beginners.
