You're running at the wrong autocross events.

Not a real huge fan of auto-x to start w/. That and the car just spins the tires in the low gears which really makes it pointless. Would much rather run open lapping road course then auto-x any day.

thats why i feel option 3 is the best of both worlds. its basically a full lapping day, and as a bonus, we'll be doing timed laps at the end.

As would I, but I'd rather have seat time than sit at home.
