An autocross is a test of a car's handling ability and a driver's skill. One car at a time drives through a course laid out with rubber pylons. The top speed and driving challenges are designed to be similar to those encountered on our highways. Cars are divided into different classes, depending on their potential, and level of modification. The fastest car in each class earns a first place award.
Many people consider autocrossing to be the best driver training in the world.
Rallying has been compared to an adult parlor game, where the countryside is the playing board, and your car is the game piece. Successfully following the instructions will get the teams to the finish location. Answers are found along the rallye path and getting the most right will determine the winner. Tidewater Sports Car Club, Ltd. is a non profit organization that has been active in the South Eastern Virginia area since 1953. In addition to the autocrossing, rallying, and other events, many of TSCC's members are involved in SCCA's road racing programs.
