I've been to 3 autox's this year, and am fully hooked. Haven't given the DE a shot yet, I've been too busy looking forward to AXs and getting faster each time. Only thing that seems to happen is the tires get a bit gummy.

Regarding someone's point about dealers...I know for a fact my dealer sponsors autocrosses, in addition to driver's ed and driver's events. These cars can handle these sort of sporting events - its what they're engineered for. Bouncing off the rev limiter day and night is NOT cool, but 5-6 AXs a year and a DE event here and there won't hurt a thing, IMO.
