Default Z on a go-kart track.

I'm sure people do this all the time, but I have never seen it. This a short vid of my best run at an autocross event (held on a go-kart track) last weekend.

It was very tight, but they set it up with no cones inside the track so it was quite fun.

That actually looks pretty fun!

I'd get lost in a sea of cones on my first time out in an AutoX track. This would be something else...

thats looks fun. lots of chances to swing the back end out at low speeds....which is very controlable in a Z.

I had to use the throttle to bring the back end around because the corners were soooo tight! But yes, it was a lot of fun.

My Quaife worked very well. I was using the throttle to rotate the rear because the corners were sooooooo tight.
