Is anybody autocrossing a 1st gen j? If so are there any tips for a newbie?

if you are plz update me cuz i want to with my 1985 type 10

Yea prolly uprgade your suspension. Body roll is a killer. Second, get your self a set of take off rims (toyota celica shares same bolt pattern)the put on a good set of tires such as falken azenis. Take everything out of your trunk (spare tire, jack subbox). And go have some fun. You might be suprised class1 is pretty competitve. @!#$ I lost to a civic si in my celica gts. Just know that when u go with rims bigger isn't always better (heavy) .
