Driving between buildings at work today I passed this parking lot- set up by the U of M FSAE team for practice.

I soooo wanted to drive my work van through it!

Edit: here is the link, can't get the image to show here.

Uh, upon viewing an unattended autocross course I think I'd have just about as much self-restraint as Mötley Crüe visiting a college cheerleading convention.

The worst thing about big box shaped cargo areas is they always tend to fill up with things that are not adequately secured for violent maneuvers. This always seems to be the case with my 5spd minivan. Plus that thing has some stupid cupholders that become drink ejectors when i shift hard.

We call that "Darwinian Cargo Selection." What survives, lives.

What's the tallest vehicle you can autocross per SCCA/NASA?

I know you guys are crazy for that Cherokee, but it looked pretty slammed and I know some pickup trucks that run SC region events.
