Any Autocross-like Practice tracks near Dallas?

Hey guys, i want to take the car out and have some fun on a track that has a lot of twists and turns, sort of like an auto cross course. I'm not lookin for a competitive event or anything like that, just looking for a place to drive.

I found this place, but you have to pay to take the class and to drive out there... I just wanted a track to drive on. Might have to wind up paying.

thanks guys!

Yikes, to get a membership out there is 3700 dollars (and thats before you can even set foot on the track!) for a basic membership! Looks like im going to be paying either way....

Wholly crap. Didn't even look at that.

Looks like this place has open track days for $150.

Autocross is a blast, and pretty cheap entertainment for a Saturday or Sunday. There are several clubs around DFW that run events on the weekends, and they usually run $30-45 to enter.

Check out www.dfwautocross.com or https://www.facebook.com/DFWAutocross, they keep a full schedule and have links to each club to get more info.
