At 5'11" I need the roll bar and stock seat slighlty reclined to pass broomstick. Since I always need the rollbar, I didn't read the rules closely.

is that photo next to your name coming out of the S's ?
I am just to the right of 1470 on your track map - I think of that as mid-Esses since there is an important apex on my left. (I'm a little wide here since I just passed the 911 on approach to the corner at the bottom of the hill.)

I'm hoping to do the novice school listed on the trackmaster.com
But I'm still getting used to the power of my S.
A few times its caught me out in a BIG way. Hopefully after a few Autocross events I'll be more confident.
Coming off a 94 Sentra, It took me about 3 months to learn to ease on the throttle rather than just mash my right foot down to the floor.

For perspective, You do know that Autocross is HARDER than DE driving - right?
