Then you go to the SCCA event (mostly Japanese and American sports car). These guys haven't shaved in days and probably did not shower that morning, their jeans must have at least one oil stain per pant leg and they are probably hung over. but they drive the wheels off what they can manage to buy. The gaps in the time sheets might be down to tenths of a second down to sixth place. And if its its Autox you'll be lucky to get in six laps because the turn out is so much higher than the Porsche event.
The Porsche club of Texas doesn't even do autox anymore because there's not enough interest. I have to do it with the Houston BMW club which is full of BMW, Minis, Miatas, and the random Viper, Porsche, Subaru, Mazda 3, S2000, MR2, and others.

Then there's the SCCA but getting 2 of 3 runs in after an entire day because 150 people show up doesn't sound like fun/ROI.
