I did my first (and only so far) on 3/22 with the BMWCCA and I loved it, the only possible down side I could think of is it wears out your tires a lot faster than normal driving but not as much as I would have thought, I had brand new tires all around about a month before I went to the autocross and afterwards they were still fine.

I tended to do a little too much drifting because I'm immature like that and I'd also go into a turn hard and lift off the throttle to get my car to slide that way but sometimes I would accidentally trail brake into the turn and end up understeering and that did a number on my front tires, they were chunked up a little and made a lot of noise for the next two days but after two days they smoothed out from driving regularly and everything's been fine ever since.
