A fellow dubber got some video of an event. This is the only one up yet that I am aware of. You will see me after the yellow Mazda. :D

Yea, that last corner was something else with elevation and angle changes. That was my first time and I hit no cones. Each run got better too :D

Three offical runs.
1. 72.264
2. 69.652
3. 69.327 Bad launch and last coner or would have been better.

Fun runs, same course.
1. 68.967
2. 67.986
3. 67.313
4. 66.912

it wouldn't be that hard to start up if you got permission to use a parking lot on a saturday or sunday


watching autocross can be slow and boring......... but once you're inside of the car, it seems 10x faster

you'd be surprised how many rules we have... you need permission from the owner of the lot, from the city (if they're not the owner anyways) you probably need an ambulance and firetruck attending.. stuff like that... it's no fun organising stuff here.

Nasty tirescreech, man! :p

We have some Auto-X here, called Autoslalom though. I've never tried it myself, only watched. YOu are right, it can look slow, but it depends in the driver. I remember once, there was an old 911 who took best times, but there was this dude in a 95 Corolla who had a sick attitude, he was really pushing his tires, lifted his rear wheel, yanked the E-brake, just drove like crasy! He wasnt faster than the 911 but he looked twice as fast :D
