1) You over hear your colleagues talk about LaGrave Field and you immediately think of Auto-X, not baseball 2) When you say you plan to spend $X on equipment, it means you actually spend two times $X 3) You have a bench-mark ‘driver’ who you compare your times to - to see if you are improving month over month 4) You have read a book or have done searches on the web on Auto-X driving techniques 5) You know who Randy Pobst is. 6) When your budget takes hit (eg. $4 gas, a new child, divorce), you find other ways to cut back, like eating out less often. Giving up Auto-Xing didn’t even cross your mind. 7) You plan your vacations around Auto-X events

When it comes to Auto-Xing, I'm like an elephant

I used to plan business trips around AX, too, not just vacations!  The only additional few? 8) You've know what the Evolution courses are and/or have actually taken one (or all)... 9) You laughed out loud every time that one guy on the 1st season of SpeedTV's really crappy "Setup" show says to another (ultimately faster) guy, "Watch it, you stupid autocrosser" over and over again... (e.g. see #5 above) 10) Your wife just stops asking about tires when new sets show up via UPS.
I'd rather be autocrossing...

More reasons......
11) You proudly say you were autoxing when people ask about the worn shoulders of your tires.
12) It's too hot to do yard work all day but you will stand on an asphalt lot with no shade for 7 hours.

I like that one. That's why I traded the AX sickness for the DE version. I prefer to spend 8 hours sweating into my helmet, at least I'm on track with 80mph breeze the whole time.
