I would like to try autocross at the Laurinburg event. How do I tell what class to enter? I will be driving a geo metro 1300 cc what class will that be in? Thanks SAM

It'll be in H stock, unless you've modified it.

Why not bring the Pinto? It'll be street mod, but the soft front end might make it pretty spiffy for autocross.

Not sure. It might actually be in one of the prepared classes, depending on how much of the interior's been replaced.
