Default AutoX Pics
A couple of pics from Sunday's wet AutoX.







I'm not sure if it's an optical illusion caused by the water but in that second picture it sure looks like I'm 3-wheelin' it.

19" LE37T's 9½" up front, 10½" in rear. Michelin PS2s 255/285. I was really impressed with the way the PS2s handled in the wet and standing water.

From what I can tell, the pics were taken on either my first or second run. From what I remember, there was one or two corners I went into way too fast and had to brake hard. The pics don't show enough of the course or background for me to recognize where I was at the time.

Nice pics Dave... how'd you do?

Instead of starting a new thread... here's a pic of my car "launching" out of a corner at the first local autox this year.

Nice meeting you too. I'm sure we'll be getting together at future autox and Z club events.

I took 1st place (I was the only entry in the class ). I was 13 out of 33 in PAX though. Still waiting for the official results to be posted.

Hey Greg - I'm still waiting for you to get out there. There's another event on the 21st. I'll post an announcement in the South Central Region forum.

BSP is "B" Street Prepared. The stock Z normally runs in the BS ("B" Stock) class.

Once I get my extra set of wheels I'll be down for some autocrossing

Changed my mind about wheels AGAIN, think I'll settled for some OEM Track wheels as a cheap alternative. Moving into a house and its going to be a bit more expensive per month so I can't spend as much as I want on wheels
