Next Sunday, April 22, at ECC North. If you plan to run, show up between 8 and 9, depending on how much you want to walk the course, and how much crap you have to remove from your car. $20 members, $25 non-members.
As for your car being ready - does it run? Is it safe to drive? Then you are all set! Your car only has to pass a basic safety inspection (seatbelts present and working, wheels on tight with all lugnuts present, battery tied down properly, nothing in car that isn’t secured, gas and brakes work without sticking, etc). Don’t get stuck in the mindset that you need a fast car for this - autox is a driver’s game. A good driver in a slow car will beat an inexperienced driver in the fastest car. So show up, learn, and have fun!

my car might JUST get running leak free by then. then i need to buy rims, tires, brakes and finish off paying for the car. so i HIGHLY doubt i can make it. although i could bring my civic but i think it would defeat the purpose since its an automatic. lol
and i mean my talon hasn’t been driven in 5 almost 6 years. they dont seem to want to work right. if i can manage to get it mobile by then i WILL bring it.
my civic is retarded as well although i wanna do this bad enough to bring it out and pray i dont kill it.
Automatics are fine. Bring out the civic, its fun no matter what you are driving. We have a kid who makes every single event in an automatic toyota corolla (the fwd old one)
sticker.
otherwise i would be there with the se-r
