The autocross is a hoot, we use the south end of the road course at Race City using a cutoff to loop back, two loops around makes a BEST time of around 1:27 for the fastest guys. The only cones involved are a few at the start and then a couple to slow you down before blasting over the finish line so it's a lot higher speed the the normal cross. You'll easily get into third gear and be doing around 130kmh coming into the to the first s curve. (Thats my numbers and I'm not a fast guy out there, my best time is around 1:33)
If you just want to watch come on out.
If you want to run reserve a spot with Ken as it can fill up pretty quick and it is absolutely limited to 22 cars so everyone can get plenty of runs. It's $30 for PCA members and $35 for others (BMW club shares the cost)
You need a SA 95 or 2000 helmet and your car will be tech inspected, which basically means they make sure your battery is fastened down, none of your wheels are falling off, and your brakes work. Bring a tarp or something to stick everything in your car on/under as you don't want stuff rattling around under the hood or inside.
