Here's a vid of the autocross I was in on June 14th:

This is just the first run. No sound unfortunately. I came 4th after the blue Integra, the white and blue Ignis and the red and black Datsun (as driven by the white guy, who isn't the owner but is a huge Datsun nut!).

Holy cow! Can you say "draggin' the doors!?" Very cool that you can get together an event on a 166 squre mile island!
That 'Yota was wagging the inside rear tire everywhere! About 24 seconds in, just past the green Geo or Suzuki in the grass, now THAT was a tight turn.
The roads in Barbados are definitely fun. Had a lot of fun getting lost on the east coast in my daihatsu mira rental a couple months ago Riding the bus was also an exciting experience, kind of like a ride along in a 40 foot long rally car

That's nothing, the Autocross here is the smallest event. There are huge numbers of competitors for the offroading events and stunt shows. There's a group trying to set up drag events right now that should attract more competitors than all the other events combined,.,and motorsports attracts more spectators than any other sport here.
