Evolution Autocross Schools are very good and well worth the price of admission, even if you have to travel to attend.

Here in Vancouver, the UBC club runs a slush series of Auto-X all winter. It runs rain, shine and yeah slush too. The track is an airport. I just got my STI and so I will run in January-after I break in the car a bit. Choice of tires can get tricky- I will probably run my winter all season Proxes 4 rather than my RE070 summer tires.
During the regular season [April to Oct.] AutoX run rain or shine and again, tire choices are critical. Most people here run R rubber and if they have Hoosiers or Kumho V710 rain is very tough for them. Kumho Victoracer, Pirelli Sport Comp R and Yok 032R do better, and those on ultra HP street tires do relatively better in the rain. Track work sucks then!
BTW: Has anyone tried the 245/40 Yok A048? They look good on paper.

BTW2: In Vancouver, The VCMC club gives a Velocity driving course in April. This is a 2 day course [1 class, 1 driving] and it teaches how to set up your car, and practice on various parts of a Solo2 course [slalom, 180 turn, 360 circle, launching and braking]. Since I have a new car, I will sign up for this. Last year's winner in AS drove an STI [he went from RE070, to V70A to V710- the last being his fastest tires according to him] and just narrowly beat 2 S2000s.
