The All-purpose track-day, autocross, and performance driving thread

If any lurkers are curious about any of this, post your questions! It’s super easy to get involved.

I autocrossed for most of a decade and then took a decade off because we lost the local site. I didn’t want to drive my old car 2 hours for 5 minutes of seat time!

I’ve since bought a newer WRX and made the drive once. I’ll probably do it a couple times a year — listening to podcasts is nice — but it’s still too far to make it a regular thing.

I would LOVE to get into RallyCross. The car is under warranty but I’m not too worried about breaking things. What does worry me is whether my car will ever be clean again. It feels like it’s in way too good of a condition to roll around in the dirt.

That’s the angel on my shoulder. The devil wants to beat the hell out of the car!

I had experimented with my ABS before on the street. It was a coarse and loud engagement at very low speed. This was a different type of chatter in the pedals even at 100+ mph.

I’ll get the rotors checked and report back.
