Default Sedan?

I have a sedan and heard they were more stable so im thinking about keeping it... but i really want to do autocross instead of the ever popular drag... is a sedan to heavy/big for it?

nothings bad for autocross, especially as a novice where you need to concentrate on being smooth and carrying momentum.

I autocrossed my Integra sedan.. I was regularly beating a couple of Type R's.. (until they took Evolution Autocross school.. then my skills were insufficient to make up for tires, engine, weight, skill, etc.)

Don't let your car be the thing to stop you from autocrossing..

I've been autocrossing my GSR sedan for about the last 2 years, and it's a worthy competitor in our region's STS class. The extra 2" in wheel base and 80 lbs. (compared to the GSR hatch) don't really seem to offer any great handicap. Focusing on being smooth and carrying speed and momentum will yield good results in almost any car you drive.

I track an Accord sedan, they don't get much bigger than that in the Honda world
