Well, you can check out the scca homepage for info and links to clubs in your area: http://www.scca.com/
As for literature, Grassroots Motorsports is a good periodical. I think there are more than a few books on driving technique. I purchased Secrets of Solo Racing Expert Technique for Autocross and Time Trials, by Henry A. Watts. It was helpful to me with discussions on choosing lines, braking and stuff like that.

Good Idea. I will work on that.

Have you considered a driving school just for Autocrossers?
