i found a private car club that holds autox events near my area and have been wanting to race there and finally got into it.they arnt affiliated with SCCA so this wasnt for points and it ran a lil different but as far as course rules and such it was the same. usually they dont let non-members run but this was a test & tune so it was open to everyone. i knew their lot was small so the course would prolly beprettytechnical butit wasnt...it was justa figure 8 that u laped since it was so small. anyways, i still had fun tossin the car around and i learned some more about how my car handles on different tire pressures. i knew 2 psi made a difference but i can feel it so much more now haha. we did a split day format, 5 runs in the morning, 5 runs in the afternoon.
fastest morning run..

fastest afternoon run, tho my morning run was the best. i played with the tire pressures for these runs and really made a difference in a bad way lol. but hey now i kno..

the blue EG was sick.turboed B18 and sure was built nicely. tho, sadly, it was the first casualty of autox i've witnessed out of the 13 events i've done. plowed thru a couple cones and 1 cone got under his bumper and put a small hole in his radiator and leaking coolant all over the course. the car/engine is fine, a quick and pretty cheap fix, but still the first time i've seen a car been knocked out like that lol.
