racerx78 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 This was the first point’s event of the season. I had just gone to an AutoX drivers school the day before and learned a lot. I ran consistent all day, getting faster as the day got warmer. I came in second in RTA right behind a STi on upgraded street tires. I was only behind him by just under 2 seconds. Better tires will help a lot; there just aren’t that many options for my car. Body roll is not a major concern as the car doesn’t have much of it. If can find a way to upgrade the sway bar bushings that should help out some what. Besides that it was a busy day. We had over 160 people register, we had 5 runs each. There was one ms3 there but I didn’t get a chance to see it run. There were droves of BRZ/FRS there mostly in RTR. It will be interesting to see what that car does this year nationally. Here is a compilation of my runs from today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These cars can do a lot more that go fast in a straight line. I will be glad to get this car to a full road course later this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAiLs Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 That looks like a lot of fun. I've personally never done any auto crossing myself, but I rode passenger when a friend did it in his Evo... it was sweet as hell! Very nice! Can you post a video without the music? Love to hear the motor and tires....the music's good though. I thought this very same thing! I'd love to hear a little motor rumble and tire squealing with a little bit of wind. I too didn't think the music was bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racerx78 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Very nice! Can you post a video without the music? Love to hear the motor and tires....the music's good though. I would but there is no motor sound, very little tire squeal and massive wind noise. But if you want to hear that i can post it up if you want.
