This one is not in some flat parking lot. This is on an actual race track complete with banked turns. Here, Check out the Videos. Look to the right of the screen and you'll see the other 4.

On that back straight I was hitting the top of second which is 80 mph in my car. Then brake and hold the top of first around the banked turn which would be about 50. Hit second and get about 65 before I'd get to what I called the Up, Up, Down, Down, Up. Watch the video and that'll all make sense to you. As you can see lots of almost 90 degree turns, but they are smooth and most cars kicked out on those and that just adds to the fun. Coming out of the final turn I was sliding a little sideways until I hit the rev limiter for first which was usually about 10ft before I'd go through the finish gates. And all that and I wasn't even pushing my car to the limits.
Hurry though, It's March 4th, 2007
Registration is $45 and you just have to print off the form and send it in. Sorry, but you can't just show up. Trust me though, It is absolutely worth it. Oh and ANY car can run. By April the track will be converted to dirt, so, there is no "I'll go next year to this one". This is it.

So, ever wanted to have a two day autocross here is your chance.
MAP
Good photo-like map for those that need it. The street number is wrong because it puts the star in the right place. You should be able to see the track when you click on aerial image.
