Can I add how difficult it is to unlearn old behavior? I raced FWD for the longest time... Not that I've had issues recovering by lifting, but I think I'd have been better off almost every time staying on the throttle.

I think AutoX is an interesting practice opportunity for learning to read a course - it changes every event (or so the theory goes.) It's probable most people won't see many tracks, so memorizing the good line may be faster but...
