This should answer all three of your questions. Just go here.

That's the local one. There are a few others throughout the state too. They require a few hours of driving to get to though.

One thread with a bunch of questions probably would have sufficed.

BAAAASTARD! I was just writing up answers to all his questions and the thread disappeared! Here are the answers:

-No idea how far the cones are apart. It varies
-I would think the cones are 18" tall
-All cones are the same size, cones lying on their side are directional, showing you which way to go.
-No idea how wide the course is, maybe 2-3 car widths? Something around that
-Average speed on the straits is probably 50-60ish, depending on the strait and the car
-No idea on turn speed, as fast as you can go w/o hitting a cone
-For some reason I'm thinking around 100 cars? I'm not 100% sure though

Usually about $50 + gas/tire. But for you it'll be $100.

Yeah I saw the schedule. But if you look on the front page of the website it is misleading. Poor website layout. Thats all.

+gas and tires????????? beginner means stock tires $0 and its a 10 minute drive away and i'm sure people burn 2-3 times the gas on a wednesday/ Saturday night.

$50?????? i've never paid more the $40 for an event and i've raced in Philly, MD/Dc, Miami, Nor California and Fort Myers.

The Redwood Sports Car Club has been the best autocross club to deal with so far and has the most it does for it's members. Oh and its the cheapest too. So if you feel like driving 4200 miles it's cheaper then there.
