scca website has announced plans for another autox school for the fresno fairgrounds on may 24-25
last time it was 60 or 80 bucks.
1st day schooling
2nd day laying down the rubber, they had unlimited runs last year
i went last year and it was very, very, very educational
braking pressure, steering movement, course strategies, driving criticism and input from experienced drivers.
i highly reccomend this event for everybody
take all the time they give you to learn more and get that needed seat time. i was the last one off the track during slalom practices i get alot better at driving,period.
from basics and intermediate they will instruct as you go thru the various types of corners you will encounter on the track. they probably wont show you a high speed 4 wheel drift, remember they're trying to teach you how to get around the track as fast as possible, not the flashiest.
so tune up your cars for consistency and longivity, fill up the tank (i forgot to do that part last year, sad seeing someone pull off the track to fill up) and rack up those experience points.
this event was pre-regristration only so keep looking at their website or ours for more info for where to sign up.

you do not need a helmet, one is provided for you
you have to trade in your cali i.d. for a helmet, and afterwards return it to get it back.

I wouldn't count on it. If you have a helmet , bring it. Out of all the autox events i've been to , they only usually have about 7 or so helmets. If you plan on doing any kind of driving as a hobby , you should try and get a helmet anyway. I'll ask how many helmets they're going to have on hand.

That wasnt really my question. I was asking if they physically check for a license. As in, do you need to show a license to participate in the event.
