Autocross Questions

I've been out of the auto-x game for a few years now and plan on running my on-the-way '09 cooper next season.

Any input on the hot set up for a H-stock cooper? What about if I want to jump to STS. (Not sure if I wanna stay stock for racing sake, or just mod the car to my liking and deal with the class that I end up in.)

Also, are there any active forums that have a lot of MINI specific auto-x discussion on it?

Thanks in advance for any input!

-Ben

Wow, duh! I totally missed those somehow!

Thanks for the heads-up!

Just be sure to spec the sports suspension and get a set of r-compound tires. You'll be set to dominate your local h-stock competition.
