    From recent posts it looks like Black Roadster may, but he doesn't Autocross!

    I will be attending the Autocross!

    I am sorely tempted. So far I would be the only NC out there (though I understand that the 6spd NC's are less than optimum for AutoX).

    Anyone know how full the school is so far? My main hangup is that I have a design project due that following Monday, and I think it's going to wind up being a mad dash for the finish.

    You can check dlbracing.com for school availability, or you can go to the Texas Region website-- autocross.com/texasregion.

    They just have a list up for the 18th not the 17th, but I will assume that since the school also includes the following Sunday then the number signed up for the school is equal to or less than the number signed for Sunday.

    Doubt it would be a factor at Pennington since it's so small. I don't know if 6 spd NC's are geared significantly different from 6 spd NB's but it's never been a problem for me. C'mon out! The more the merrier.

    What I have heard is that with the 6 speed, you have to constantly shift from 2nd to 3rd. Whereas with the 5 speed you can just put it in 2nd gear for the whole course.

    What will hurt more is that I lack the LSD option. I was a student looking for a deal so I got an '06 in December, so I didn't get the pick of the litter.

    Don't worry about those things. Come out and drive and your car will surprise you. You don't have to have an LSD to be fast, just ask Majik!

    Oh don't worry anyone who drives his car can't go faster than him (trust me I know) :)

    If by some snowballs chance in hell I get the day off work I'll daytrip it up there and run the Jetta in GS (worst case), or borrow a certain promised suburu :p

    Speaking of which....anyone coming to Houston the following weekend? (last one in March) We have a Saturday practice and a Sunday event.
