I run open track events and would like to try autocross. Is there a group that runs autocross events in the San Jose area?

I have done some A-X. Not in my last car though. Too many issues with it..
They race at the Collosium. In the Bay area. Also at Caslte AFB. A bit of a drive but they do NASA there too.

Open track 2-3 times a year...well, except for this year, saving up for a paint job. Tried autocrossing once, just didn't really float my boat.

I opentrack with the Shelby Club and Green Flag mostly. Didn't do much this year. The Shelby Club usually runs some "fun" auto-x's during the summer. Lots of runs (like 10+), unlike what you'd get with the SCCA or NASA (~3). Timed, but no awards.

Not exactly regular, but have been doing both for about ten years.
Haven't autox'ed in a couple years though.
I try to open track two or three times a year. (Might be at Sears Pt Mon-Tues with tracquest).
I've instructed a few OT events. Once before for Tracquest and several times for Team Miata at Thunderhill. No, I don't have a Miata, but I know THill best and it's a well-run event. And I get free track time and food--sometimes even beer!
I do it in a nearly stock car (I'm resisting the tempation to buy track-only parts).

Chosen1 got me hooked too, his fastback was out of commission so we both drove my drop top in a Golden Gate Fields event which has caused my to purchase a myriad of Suspension parts. Once I get my hood and cowl fixed I plan on racing regularly
