You appear to be in MA. If it's anywhere near Boston, definitely checkout Boston chapter's very active program:

The Boston Chapter covers MA and RI (and maybe parts of CT, I don't remember). If you own a Mazda (or are and SCCA or BMWCCA member) there's also Renegade Miata. NE-SVT is another OK choice.

I would personally avoid TCUSA events. Unless they've changed recently, their courses tend to be more road course, and less autocross.

I guess NE means New England? I would love if Nebraska had one out in the Air Park area in Lincoln. I'm in.

I looks like something has gone on somewhere there. Fairgrounds probably, guessing. Check the picture.

Dallas by what I see. That's a long ways away. 2 tankfuls with a nice feather foot anyway.

Yes, but what I was attempting to direct you to is the picture on the homepage of one of our members doing an autocross in Lincoln. If you see that picture, I think the 3rd panel down, there is an inscription on the picture from Lincoln and in the right corner of the picture there is the Nebraska state with the SCCA logo on it. Something or someones go fast in Lincoln!

If you mean Mass then here is a thread you would be interested in:
https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...kin-powah.html

The biggest is probably SCCA, but you might also try BMWCCA.

Also, try posting in in the competition forum:
https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...d-prosolo-199/
"Solo" is SCCA's designation for autocross.

They do. Its called SCCA Solo Nationals. Just under 1200 participants last year. 6 days of racing. Its the ultimate auto-x

An active region, and they do host the National Championships in addition to their regional activities.

Cheers,

This site lists many, if not all the autocrosses on the left coast. I have seen listings for the NE. As the schedules for next year get finalized, they should show up on a search within a specified radius from your location. I have found some fun events that were not SCCA that were great in addition to the championship series I run in Portland, OR.
