i think this is a very useful/important website. it will tell you where the cheapest and highest gas prices can be found in toronto and the surrounding area.

Brandon, in addition to the idea about the weather icon, how about the gas info too?

ya, that was an autox event at the Hershey Centre last summer.
I'd love to see a good showing of Celica's this year.
You see everything there from C5's to BMW, Jags, Muscle Cars, Honda's of course. Lot's of fun and one of the best adrenaline rushs you will every feel, after I well driven run you will be shaking in your seat :devil:

The great thing about Autox is that there is very little chance you are going to damage your car. Speeds are generally kept below 100km in a straight and less than 60km in long sweeping corners. No chance of hitting other cars as only one car goes on the course at a time and the worst thing you are gonna smack and you will :twisted: ... are the cones.
Autox is designed to show drivers skill in tight corners and slaloms rather than straight ahead top speed.
They say good autox racers always make great track racers but not vice a versa. Autox develops excellent car control/handling skills.

The TAC http://torontoautosportclub.ca/ usually holds a 2 day course for autox racing. One evening is in class basics of car control and one full day is in car training with and without instructors. Everything from skid pad testing, treshold braking, slalom and of course doing some autox runs are completed that day. The price last year was really reasonable at around $40. That was probably the cheapest and best mod I ever done/taken. Most of the in class stuff I knew already, but I never had a chance to practice driving like a controlled maniac before. I highly recommend it! I'm planning on taking a more advanced course this year and every year after. Nothing better than learning how to really drive a car :D

I will definately be signing up. There are places like http://www.driverforaday.com/ the same sorta idea except you get to ruin high end porsches and I hear the speeds are pretty high in it. But the problem is 1 day course is like $1,000
