Classic is intriguing. Would I be competitive, no. But would a week's work of autocross be excellent fun, absolutely.

No class where my supercharged Challenge Miata would fit well.  The last rule would get me disqualified......smiley

I messaged them.  They will accept my turbo Miata in the boosted class.    It's $500 entry for the week, I'm seriously tempted.

In reply to KyAllroad :

I mean a turbo BP did come available as an NB, close enough. Makes me wish the 323 was together for more turbo fun.

It's about 1.5 hour from me but I have not autoxed at Dragway 42.  The Akron Sports Car Club holds events there often.  

As a dragstrip, it is grass padocks with paved roads to those padocks.  The autoxing is done on those roads. 

The events are notorious for 3rd gear and high speeds.

And sometimes the grass and trees next to the roads.

But for this kind of big event you should really have autocross insurance anyway, so that risk probably isn't as much of a concern as for their normal season events.

With 300 entrants it's going to be some long days to get more than two laps on a course if you are looking to improve times.

Also last rule WTF? :

7. The use of two (2) or more expletives in a single sentence. (you know who you are.)

 

With that said, I'm tempted.
