That was fun. A lot better than the old Champs place from years back, a little bigger too. Entry into turn one of the front straight was fun. The setup for the front straight was killer, I need to figure out how best to take that.
First350.... Good luck at the Canadian Nationals.
We'll be rooting for ya, make us proud.

"Drag racing is for fast cars, AutoX is for fast drivers
" I've done drag racing, so I know there's a lot more to it than just pressing the gas pedal, but if you want to corner, AutoX is really the cheapest, safest, way to learn - it teachs car control for sorts of sweepers, transistions, decreasing/increasing radius turns. If you spot any other autoX events coming up, let me know and I'll try to make it with you
