OK, blasian- I'll eat my words! Autox is fun as hell!
 
I'm at the ABF Road Tour event at Citizens Bank Park in Philly beatin the dog**** out of some modded turbo Mini Coopers. :driving: These little things handle like effing go karts! Makes the Z feel like a 79 Caddy. :bowrofl: Suspension mods are def next on my list after paint and boost.

I'm hooked. :o

Imagine doing your suspension mods and autoxing the Z:D

Auto-X is an addiction. Be careful!!

adamciya350 May 16, 2010 12:09 PM

RIGHT! I actually just got home from my first autox event today. Had a freakin blast :thumbup:

Glasgow Smile May 16, 2010 12:37 PM

Hell yea, those Coopers are fun as Hell to toss around.

Have a blast, Torrey.

Autocrossing is not just a summertime event, in the winter the cars have soo much more power. I knew from the start coiloverZ, sloTTed and driLLed rotors, ss brake lines, dot 4 brake fluid and fat & griPPy tires and lighter wheels make a huge difference.

I am addiCTed as well.

Vid when I get home. :D

Wouldn't it be funner to Autox cars that aren't small and peppy? I think I'm gonna take my dad's Toronado GT to one and watch the hilarity ensue,

G4nismo May 16, 2010 02:00 PM

i used to auto-x my max a lot believe it not. Understeer was a b!tch though. Have yet to auto-x the Z. I also started looking into circuit cross like the ones at VIR hosted by Nasa. They seem more exciting but the distance and limited locations would be the only downer.

ErkTheJerk73 May 16, 2010 02:39 PM

was there a red e30 BWM there?

phreaktor May 16, 2010 02:56 PM

First lap was pretty conservative as I wanted to feel out the track in a different car. Second lap I was smokin the tires, lol... The ride along guy was so impressed he took it for the third lap to see if he could outdo me... :icon17:

Yup thats the one. The BMW was sick looking. I didn't get too much time there because I was at the wrong lot, but there were some bad rides there...

Wait till you do your first real official AutoX where you'll use your Z and have to wear a helmet. You'll feel like the stig mang :thumbup:

davids May 16, 2010 04:42 PM

Now just step up for a track day in the Z ;)

Boost is the fastest way to make your car slow.
