Does 5 years of autocross count for experience or does only track experience count?

There are two different elements: Time Trials and Track Event. The latter is open to everyone, no experience of any kind needed. The former has requirements. They are explained on the Texas Region Time Trials page.

Quoting from there:

This event has two elements – Track Event and Time Trial. Please choose the correct element during the registration process:

• The Track Event (TE) element is open to novices with little or no track experience. TE drivers will have an instructor assigned to them for the day.
• The Time Trials (TT) element is a timed event (SCCA level 2 Track Event), with the option to participate in the 2018 Time Trials Championship Series.
  
  • Driver qualification for Time Trials will be as follows:
    
    1. Hold a current SCCA Competition license, or a history of tracking events with SCCA or SCCA recognized organizations such as PCA, NASA, CHIN, BMW, PBOC, etc; or
    2. Hold a current SCCA PDX License; or
    3. Hold an SCCA PDX log book that indicates the ability to ‘solo’ and has successfully completed at least 3 SCCA PDX events; or
    4. Has been approved to drive solo by any of the following HPDE schools: Apex, Drivers Edge, Chinn, Eagles Canyon, Texas World, Edge Addicts.
    5. Receive an entry waiver from the Event Chief Driving Instructor.
    
    
  • If you do not meet the requirements of 1-4 above, you can request an entry waiver by contacting the Chief Driving Instructor, Brad Flack ([email protected]). All drivers approved for participation who do not meet 1-4 above and who don’t have and entry waiver will need to choose the Track Event (TE) option when registering. TE drivers will have an instructor assigned to them for the day. Log Books will be provided at registration. The log books will be filled out after each session and can be used toward PDX licensing.

Didn't Brad say something about all of us getting our license at the last event?

^^ I wasn't there when he talked about it, but someone told me that anyone with 3 or more TT events would get a National Time Trial license. Less than 3, Novice TT license. So, that is hearsay at this point, and I have no idea on the time frame.
