    Go fast, don't hit any cones.

    I've never auto-crossed so I don't really know much else.

    Have fun! People tape up the bumper edges tho to keep it from scratching if you hit cones. Believe me you will hit cones haha. Don't feel bad if you don't run the fastest times cuz it's all about having a good time in the competitive game of autoX.

    I have a few Friends in the sport and there are a few classes so it'll depend what car you have and what mods you have. Alot depends also on your tires. The pros use R spec compound tires.

    Bring a helmet and just have fun man.

    When I ran mine, I put the car in M2 and left it there, start to finish. I also left traction control on. Kept me in the power band. I imagine it is easy to overdrive if you are used to going fast in a smaller car! With my stock suspension and modest mods, I was able to go faster than the cammed, full pedders G8 I went along with. Have fun man!
