There are a few guys who will beleive AX is the end-all. They like the short intense competition. That is totally cool with me.

Once a person does an open track event, AX will typically seem tame. The duty cycle of work (picking cones) to play also is a negative for AX (but needed for the whole event to work).

Open track is the coolest thing - until you race wheel-to-wheel. At that point lapping seems pointless :-)
I was addicted to track days until I started Spec Miata racing. Not that I won't track the Camaro, but I don't do it much. With the exception of Motorstate and Optima Faceoff, I have not autocrossed in almost 7 years.
