good posts cyronman, appreciate the education on this, yes, rally x'ing is definitely much more in-line with something I might try, seems like a lot of fun and like you said, not terribly dangerous unless you do something stupid while driving an SUV

ive been thinking about entering an autocross near my moms house, from what ive seen all sorts of vehicles..mostly roadsters and coupes since they are very tight courses, but i've seen a few WRXs and EVOs out there, i havent seen them but friends say they have seen a couple of 2 door blazers and small pickups out there too. Id be willing to bet the VX would do well, based on the website, the courses are mostly dependant on good braking and tight turning.. both of which the vx is capable of..

I still think I'd feel better doing the rally-cross over an autocross, I've done several autocrosses before and with the drastic direction changes (left, sharp right, straight, brake, right, left, left, right, etc) I would really fear for upsetting the balance of something as top-heavy as the VX, yea it handles well but you can't overcome physics
this rally cross thing appears to be mostly sweepers and if there are tight corners, they don't seem to be one right after another ad nauseum
last thing to consider is autocrossing is pretty hard on your tires and your brakes
but hey, if you do it, let us know how you do!
