Where in MD are you located? I'm in northern DE and am a member of Brandywine Motorsport Club. We do between 6 - 8 autocross events each year during spring, summer, and fall. PM me if you want more details.

Looks like Spatz will give you great info.

This will give you a better idea. The SCCA(Sports club car of America) usually handles these types of events.

It's great fun. You'll get to see $100k Cobras along side highly modified Honfa CRX and everything in between. Bring tour own helmet if you can. Sometimes they have one on hand but that has me thinking. Lol.
Good luck. You'll learn a lot if you stick with it. Also see if you can ride with some instructors. THAT will leave you stoked.

UPDATE!!!

ALMOST READY! Just needs a few more finishing touches, my guy said it'll be ready on Friday!

The RSR SUPER DOWN Springs have been installed.

I was thinking about getting 25mm spacers. What mm do you recommend on the RSR Super Down?

Looks great in the pics above. Hard to believe it's the same car as the wrecked photos. Body shops can work miracles.

Capital Driving Club holds laid back autocrosses also (SCCA is a bit more focused).

Great that your car is done; that's the way I've seen it done a few times for friends / family.
