What do I need to bring with me? How do I Classify my car?

There is only four things to bring or do to run an autocross:

Helmet - You should bring a helmet with you with a rating of Snell 2000 or higher*. You can find out what your helmet rating is by peeling back the cushion on the inside of your helmet. It will have a decal stating the type of helmet and its certification rating. Motorcycle and open-face helmets are acceptable for use in an autocross. If you do not have a helmet, please try to borrow one from a friend before you arrive. Your helmet MUST be teched before you can run.
Car - While your own car is not necessary to participate (you can share a vehicle), the car you bring must be in good mechanical condition. Things to check are:
No leaking fluids (oil, coolant, power steering)
Tires must have air and tread (no cords showing)
Gas cap and battery are secure (battery must not be able to move)
Misc Items - Plastic to cover your belongings since they are not allowed to be in the trunk and its Rainy season. Also an umbrella for shade/ due to rainy season. Sun tan lotion. Remember to bring a cooler with enough water / refreshments during the summer events.
Your car will need to be teched before you run. Please remove EVRYTHING not bolted down in your car, remove the wheel covers/locks and valve caps
