EQUIPMENT GUIDE FOR AUTOCROSSERS

Autocross is one of the most affordable forms of motor sports. Basically
all you need is your car and a helmet...however there are several other
products we recommend to enhance your experience and have put
together a comprehensive guide to help you out.

 

WHAT TO DO BEFORE YOUR FIRST EVENT

Disclaimer:
Listed below are some general guidelines for novice autocrossers. For your first event, you don't
necessarily need to adhere to all of our suggestions below. Heck, for your first event, just make
sure your car is in good working order, and if it is, just go and have some fun. Ask allot of questions,
and try to hook up with some experienced racers. If you have fun and want to continue honing your
autocross skills, come back to this guide, study it some more, and you'll probably find some ideas
that will make you a better autocrosser.

Research
You can never know too much. Study this guide as much as possible and also review the websites
listed at the bottom of this page. If you autocross long enough, you'll soon realize that you learn
something new at every event. It can't hurt though to know as much as possible before your first
race!

Study the rule book and know your class
If you are going to attend an SCCA autocross event, study their Solo II rulebook and try to find out
what class your car is in. You can find out more by visiting www.scca.org.
