My wife and I are both long time autocrossers and have won many year end championships in various classes. I was wondering if there would be any interest in an autocross "training" session for novices. On Sunday at Bridgewater Commons Mall, the NJ BMW club is holding an autocross. I would be happy to arrive early and help anyone who is interested by walking them through the course, giving advice for the best driving lines and techniques, explaining rules, and helping you get your cars set up.
I can even get my car classified as an instructor car and carry passengers on all my runs. If you've ever wondered what it would be like to fly through an autocross course with an expert, this would be your chance. I can even drive your car if you are interested in seeing how fast it could go through an autocross and getting an evaluation of your suspension and tire setup.
The details and directions for this autocross are at the
NJ BMW Car Club autocross site. Please
send me an email if you are interested in participating and would like my help.
If there's anyone who doesn't know what an autocross is, feel free to email me privately and I'll be glad to explain the basics. Or you can go here:
