Thanks guys, I appreciate the advice. It's an SCCA event this Saturday, I am going early to walk the course a few times in response to your recommendations. They have a mandatory driver's safety course as well before the first drivers head out which I hope will cover that stuff.

I will make sure to catch some GoPro footage so that I can have evidence of my noobish autocross skills!
