How do you find Autocross events in your area

I'm in the middle of nowhere Western Kansas and am having trouble finding autocross events that are near me. It may be that there aren't any close but I was wondering what y'all use to find these events? Being new going into it there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of information. I just show up with my car, helmet, license and cash and I am good to go?

Ask your local track for a paper that shows the events the're having for that year.

I think my "local track" is a good 5 hours away. I found some events on SCCA website and the closest is two hours away, which relatively isn't bad.

I have signed up for their monthly email of events. So far it is the best resource I have used for finding events in my area.

MotorsportReg is a good site.

Your local SCCA, NASA chapters are a good start also.

You can google "racing car clubs" and your area and that might also give you some other outlets.

I run with the BMW and Porsche car clubs local to me, they just offer discounted rates to their member so an outsider, like me, just pays a few bucks extra.

Do you not need a BMW or a Porsche to run in those events?
