    Question Seeking Autocross advise

    All,

    I am now in charge of the Classic section of the Porsche Motorsport Club in France. End of june, we will have our Montlhery Revival meeting. The principle os to host all Porsche, with a special focus on classics : Tractor, Porsche roas legal and competition cars, automobilia etc...

    I am in charge of organizing activities, and one of them is autocross (we call this gymkana). I seek information such as rules, scoring, track drawings etc.. any information welcome related to this discipline.

    All the bets

    Xavier

    This is a good place to start. It's on the Tire Rack site. My book is now out of print but you can find used copies on Amazon.

    Any tips/example of how to organise the track for autocross ? What I have in mind is a short track drawn with orange plastic cones... what is the length in average ? ideal drawing ?

    Cheers
