I take the silence as a no :-)
For future reference, did 1st autocross today with the santa clara corvettes down in crows landing. No video...thought I pressed record the GoPro but it just took one lousy picture instead of actual video. Had a blast. So much power, so much torque. Couple of things about autocrossing the f-type:

- factory tire pressure seemed ok, didn't really have any issues
- need a long, fast course. was lucky today, crows landing was fast and long, probably 1.2 miles. really enjoyed the power and the hard braking. brakes were great. on a tighter course (something setup in parking lot) probably wouldn't be as fun. So I recommend only courses setup at abandoned airfields and the like, no parking lots (leave that for the miatas ;-0 )

seems like a very fun time.... Will definitely want to do something like that when I get mine in.
