82 entries and counting! Lots of high-powered cars entered but I've got the only 350Z! We've got some EVOs, STis & RX8s to beat!

 

Just my luck, its on a freaking Sunday. Why sunday?

 

What!? It's always on Sundays! 87 entries and counting . . .

 

I didnt know that. Sucks I have to work on Sundays

 

If you can't go, just drop off your Z and I'll drive it for 'ya! I'll let you know how it handles . . . I promise not to hit or drag any cones.

 

ok, let me know when you want to pick it up

 

97 entries and counting . . .

 

Over 100+ entries so far. Today is the last day to pre-register online. Walk-in registration on Sunday from 8am-9am.

 

Well, it was a fun day today! There were 86 entries and I had the only 350Z. Took 1st place in my class and beat the 2nd place STi by 2.151 seconds. Click on the link below to see the results:

If you look at the results, I also posted better times than several STIs, a couple of Vettes (to include a C6), a couple of Lotus Elise, a couple of RSXs (yes, Zs are faster than RSX), a couple of 300ZX TTs, an SRT-4, and yes, an M3. Overall, it was great day to be at an autocross!!!

 

Ed sure was definitely entertaining to watch that day - Aggressive and so precise, plus that exhaust noise, it sure is one hot z. It's always nice to see Zs tearing auto-x courses apart around San Antonio, but unfortunately he's been the only active one. Where's Brandon these days, eh?

Hola, fellas It's Wei.

 

Hey Wei,

What the heck is a Honda guy doing in a Z forum!? J/K

Brandon & Jason are also regulars in this forum. As a matter of fact, Jason posted some pics of his Z from last month's auto-x almost hitting that post. That thread is in the auto-x section.

I wished I had my camera yesterday while working the course to take a picture of your Prelude with one of your rear wheels about 6" off the ground! That was quite a scene that stirred up our group in that slalom corner. You're one heck of a driver, and I still consider you my mentor when I started out as a novice. I'm a better driver today because of what I learned from you.

Hey, are you going to the SASCA auto-x in two weeks? That's awesome they're able to schedule one this month. Shane should be there. The baby did not arrive this weekend (due later this week). I told him he missed out on a good course.

 

I did a google search on our last event for pics or videos, and then I found this website... well, I mean, I found this thread.

Yup, I'll be at the next SASCA event, can't miss the fun.

And yes, it would be so much more fun if we had Shane with us, the course was actually pretty challenging to drive - we had many guys doing stunts especially in Ed's heat: some of them spun, a few of them lost it right at the finish, two almost hit the fence in the last slalom corner. And ahh, I so wish Jason was there, if you know what I mean......
