Congrats on trading to a manual. They can be tedious in traffic but man are they a blast.

Also a question for you guys, I know I need to put NOV and my number on the side of my car...but I'm not sure on the class...is it S2 or CS?
Sweet! I look forward to meeting with you and competing come Sunday!

I bought the Auto back in July of last year, mainly because I drive 130 miles a day. After doing AutoX, though, I realized that I should've bought a manual all along. Good news is, I bought the car with 40 miles on it (they had to drive it from another dealer) last Thursday, and between my normal commute and me taking light night cruises, I'm at 900 miles and pretty much broken in

You'll be S2, I believe. Now that I think about it, I never put NOV on the side of my car. Just my number and STX. The people reading times just would announce me as NOV after every lap I ran. But yeah, I'd do S2, but I'm no professional.

Same here, the course looks like a blast from the videos I've watched. Holy crap that's a fast break in. Mine felt like forever, but I have basically no commute for work.
Okay cool, I know CS is grouped within S2 so I wasn't sure.
Thanks a lot for your help, looking forward to my first autocross!

I'll be there! Feel free to come by and say hi, I'll have a black FRS with wedssports.

As stated earlier, get in the novice group and take full advantage of the instructors, I would highly recommend you let them drive your car. These guys are veterans and have a wealth of knowledge.

Awesome. I'm definitely going to utilize the instructors as much as I can, I'm ready to learn! Hope to see all of you guys there, should be a ton of fun.

I'll be there on Sunday too. It will be my first auto-x in my Fr-S. I ll be running in Novice to learn as much as possible, but my car is classed STX due to coilovers, swaybar, 17x9 wheels, catback and a tune. I look forward to meeting all of you. I may stop by Saturday as I also live only a mile from El Toro.
