    First EVER AutoX

    Hey guys, today was a blast, cant wait for the next event. I ran in the novice class of SCCNH and placed 3rd out of 5 cars in that class. Got a nice little dash plate for it. My car is pretty much stock sitting on Tein S techs with no alignment since dropping it. My tread wear is 320 and being my first time I was about mid pack of the total 60 cars. The fastest car was 30 seconds while I was 34.2 so I have plenty to work on. Things I noticed...

    My Suspension is a non issue, hardly any roll.

    Plenty of power, never really went WOT

    Brakes are fine, though I didnt use them as much as I should.

    When really pushing it, it just slid, major under steer, rear never tried to come out. My last run, the one after this vid I just slid through the entire course like a mad man lol.

    Nice! Welcome to the addiction. Learn some trail braking technique to battle the under steering.

    Help them, for they know not that which they do not know!

    Tickles me to see the car way in teh back ground and the forced perspective makes it look like just a little RC car. But I'm easily amused as such right now.

    Not bad though.

    It was a blast, cant wait to go again.

    Did you hear my daughter at the end "Mommy he got a 34 not a 37" LOL. She kept pushing me, saying "Daddy that car is way faster than that, you can do better"

    Can't wait to get home and see the vid, Cbot.
    Ranked No. #1 in initial quality

    Idiots, simply by being idiots, seem capable of achieving randomly bad things that are beyond the imaginings of sensible people.

    Now you have to figure out a way to make it to the NG so you can take part in the 3/S only auto-cross.

    Yeah, I wish I could. Its still a possibility but not likely. Would really like to race with other 3S's for a good comparison though.

    Yeah, I will do that when I have mastered my driving and the car cant possibly do better without better stuff. A great driver probably could have gotten another couple seconds out of it.
