I think there were 7 Boxsters there. I don't know how many were Ss, though there was at least one. I know two of them had upgraded brakes and DOT legal race tires. It sounds like everybody's using pressures that are around where I ended up.
I was surprised that there weren't more cars there, and at the layout of the course. It's not anything like driving on a track. However, it only cost $35, and it's a hell of a lot of fun if you are at all competitive. I am, so in that respect, it's more fun that HPDE. I prefer HPDE, but it is great fun to compete and try to continually improve your time. I guess I could do that on the track if I invested in a lap counter. That's not a high priority now though.
The course at the tire rack was really spread out. Much more than any other autocross I've ever seen before. My only prior experience with autocross was those Mazda Rev-It-Up events where you get three runs on their autocross track in a Mazda 6 (or whatever model it was). Those courses were always much tighter than this one. It was fun as hell though.
