Is this mostly 'fun' or will i come away with opened eyes and better autocross times?

Not currently planning to do any DE's this year.

There is an HPDC in April, and another one in September. Been this way the last couple years.

You need to shift all your clients to a fiscal year for tax purposes. They'll understand.

If you want better autocross times, I suggest the autocross school. I've been skipping a day during tax season to instruct at the autocross school, some times you just got to get your priorities straight.

You would have to spend some time with congress to get the laws changed first.
