Anyone done it in their Volvo? What model?

I did it a few years ago in a 91 Honda Prelude, but haven't in my Volvo.

Let's hear some good stories!!

I've autcrossed my S60 and my 242. ITs fun, they run pretty good. With my s60 there is alot of roll but its almost effortless getting around the track without hitting a cone. In the 242 my turbo is like a light switch, I have no power then the turbo comes on and I ahve alllllll the power. So i actually turn my boost down for autocross. Number one thi ng when doing any sort of racing, tires.
