No help on the specific area....

But as a general tip try googling the name of a popular area around you and autox...

For example after hearing that the local airport had them I found groups by googling "Camarillo airport autox"

You get a lot of crap your not looking for, but if its a large area chances are pretty good that you come up with some forums talking about local events...do some digging and you should be able to find a contact number or two.

I've only been on Gingerman and Putnam Park. Gingerman is kinda tricky and technical, I felt MUCH more comfortable at Putnam, but its about 4 hrs from Chicago, whereas Gman is 2 and has open lapping days for cheap (good once you have some instructed experience). Road America is supposed to be open, fast, and somewhat scary. Autobahn is private except for occasional open events.
