Well, as long as your car will pass tech (clean out all the junk from the interior/trunk, tight lug nuts, good seatbelts, no leaks, no NOS) you can just show up and run! We've got loaner helmets, and a Novice program that will help guide you through the process of racing in an autocross.
Price is $35/day for non SCCA members, or $25/day if you're a registered SCCA member. Also, novices can run both morning and afternoon to get extra seat time, and the afternoon session is only an additional $10.
Since you're new, I'd suggest coming out to the annual Autocross School being held April 1st if you can make it, as there will be instructors available for ride-alongs, more track time than at an event, and lower stress since there's no competition going on.
