Autocross courses are set up using soft orange traffic pylons which will not damage your car, but they do melt! Events are run at speeds usually between 40-65 miles per hour, usually in second gear. Autocross is a \u201cperformance driving event\u201d and a safe way to learn how to drive your car at its limit.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-kz37o2mx-fca76c8b61e31de9a635f99a049f063e\">\n.flex_column.av-kz37o2mx-fca76c8b61e31de9a635f99a049f063e{\nborder-width:1px;\nborder-color:#2b653c;\nborder-style:solid;\nborder-radius:15px 15px 15px 15px;\npadding:15px 15px 15px 15px;\nbackground-color:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-kz37o2mx-fca76c8b61e31de9a635f99a049f063e av_one_third  avia-builder-el-4  el_after_av_two_third  el_before_av_two_third  flex_column_div  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-kz37q65k-2dabda38ae0b855b795960e238b1218d '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Autocross Chair<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Autocross Chair:<br \/>\n<\/strong>Chris Grenzberg<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-button-wrap av-kz37r41g-1b248ddcdee18350c4147b94c8cd4c3d-wrap avia-button-center  avia-builder-el-6  el_after_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-last '>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-kz37r41g-1b248ddcdee18350c4147b94c8cd4c3d\">\n#top #wrap_all .avia-button.av-kz37r41g-1b248ddcdee18350c4147b94c8cd4c3d:hover{\nopacity:0.5;\ntransition:all 0.4s ease-in-out;\n}\n<\/style>\n<a href=''  class='avia-button av-kz37r41g-1b248ddcdee18350c4147b94c8cd4c3d av-link-btn avia-icon_select-no avia-size-large avia-position-center avia-color-theme-color'   aria-label=\"Contact Autocross Chair\"><span class='avia_iconbox_title' >Contact Autocross Chair<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/p><\/div><\/p>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-kurg2c-91482e752164ec8b7fdf83562be39d0f\">\n.flex_column.av-kurg2c-91482e752164ec8b7fdf83562be39d0f{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-kurg2c-91482e752164ec8b7fdf83562be39d0f av_two_third  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_one_third  el_before_av_one_third  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-jsbp90-c55112879836adada33e7a7e52f4d842\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-jsbp90-c55112879836adada33e7a7e52f4d842{\nheight:25px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-jsbp90-c55112879836adada33e7a7e52f4d842 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-8  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-knvw4wpe-0a5ef73e34cbad0ff50c71a19fcfb4d1 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3>Exhilaratingly Fun and Competitive Events<\/h3>\n<p>You not only learn how to handle your car at speeds that you drive daily, but you also:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Gain confidence in your driving ability<\/li>\n<li>Learn the limits of your car\u2019s brakes<\/li>\n<li>Learn correct seating, hand, and feet positions<\/li>\n<li>Learn the limits of your car\u2019s tire adhesion<\/li>\n<li>Finally, autocross is a social gathering of new and old friends and LOTS OF FUN!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-f8l2gk-3adf343242ef2736361d9d1e35754572\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-f8l2gk-3adf343242ef2736361d9d1e35754572{\nheight:25px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-f8l2gk-3adf343242ef2736361d9d1e35754572 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-10  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-knvw2fdq-35895d6f2bbfb3787d127388960382c0 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3>Things You\u2019ll Want to Bring to the Track<\/h3>\n<p>Bring a small cooler with drinks, snacks, and lunch.

Make sure your gas tank is full, your tires are properly inflated, and you have enough brakes and tires for a \u201croad trip\u201d. If you wouldn\u2019t drive cross country on those tires, they\u2019re not ready for an autocross! Take everything out of your car that may go flying around while cornering hard. Bring a helmet (see the rules for requirements). If you don\u2019t have a qualified one, be prepared to rent one at the event. When you arrive in the morning (get there early!) your car will be subject to a safety inspection. If it fails, you will be sent away to fix it, so don\u2019t be surprised.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-ctun1w-9097674bc0c8e3c10ced95099910053b\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-ctun1w-9097674bc0c8e3c10ced95099910053b{\nheight:25px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-ctun1w-9097674bc0c8e3c10ced95099910053b hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-knvw0ed4-ba208b467182927c017a59958c6ee257 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3>More Information<\/h3>\n<p>Want more information on Autocross?
