A Swiss friend of mine posted this Swiss Autox video link, there they call Slalom. Just a bit faster than Scca may allow. Sure looks like fast fun.

That looks like a blast! I'm thinking the Swiss are not as litigious as Americans, as the safety/insurance issues seem to be non-issues. Going into that tall, thick, lush grass sideways would seem to be a recipe for barrel rolls.

He didn't stop for that one downed cone ... not many course workers. If I recall correctly, I think it's the swiss that are very strict about mods. I imagine you're either an unlicensed trailer queen or stock.

It's Interlaken! They have sky diving, paragliding, canyoning, white water rafting, etc. Fun place!

To me seamed more airport road course than autocross. Though substantially longer, kinda like running a Solo 1, or time trial out at Holtville (SD Regions old track) using cones rather than clangers.

Lot of good footage in this vid. The formula cars look like fun.
