Default looking to learn more about....

autocrossing.

how much to run the track/course?

safety issues?

how wide is the track/course (from cone to cone)?

how much space is needed to set up a trace/course?

any other issues?

i'm looking to hold autocrossing events in my hometown as a business.

Default You really need to go to a few events...

Definitely a fun hobby, but can get very expensive the more serious you get!

Default Go to one, its cheap and you would get a lot out of it

Designing the courses seems like it would be kinda tough. Last time I looked cones were pretty expendsive too. I was thinking of doing the same thing but just for friends of mine. Last time I looked they were like $7 per cone.
