Autocrossing article in the Washington Post

[JST]

Great. Now the events are going to fill up even quicker...

Maybe positive exposure will lead to more lots?


EDIT:

You know what's weird? My first autocross, back in 1996, I did in a Mustang GT. And I got beat by a Cavalier wagon.

I'm curious as to whether the article will actually affect registration for local events. I mean, we have enough problems as it is dealing with demand during the season. I hope that it bolsters the image of the sport; while those of us who are regular participants understand why we do what we do, there are tons of others who can't figure out why we like driving around big parking lots every other weekend.

I finally read the article. I like it. I'm glad the author did his best to understand the sport and our enthusiasm for it; it's clear to me that he gets it.
