i talked to the person in charge at sf region, and they said that the event is only one day and is the one in antioc.
the event that i did before was not as harsh on the car as one may think. with the exception or me rear swaybar problem, all wheels probably never left the ground. ie: a bounced wheel due to rebound from a rut, jump, or somehow bottomed out suspension. but you may use the rev limiter once or twice.
as far a tires, i was lucky and the tire shop screwed up and they gave me a/t tires instead of the summers i ordered. then i got my summer tires when i got back from the event. and i saw a guy there with a set of rt615's
the thunder hill venue is mild dirt with no rocks to report. i have no mudflaps, and haven't noticed any new scratches or chips.
oh and there is parade lap that i think autocross should adopt. (please nevermind if that idea has already been abandoned, i'm still new) it's a drive around the coarse after the walkthrough, before the race starts.
all in all, it's just really good fun.
