Not test and tunes. Many times test and tunes people can get in 20-30 runs if they want. Not 6 like the COM events

did you have any issues with the toe being off due to the toe elims?


Actually, I did not. The toe was very neutral - I must have lucked out. With your eliminator and the RM rear bar, the car actually rotates when I tell it to.

COM event = be prepared to stand around for 12 hours and race for 12 minutes. Just a heads up

Yea, that's unfortunately the case... I just was frustrated by my performance last time out so I want another crack at it.

I'm liking how my car feels, not gonna make it to BIR this year so i'd like to do an autox. 6 runs... whatever.

From the one COM event and one MAC event I have been to, the COM event was just run very cumbersome, lots of down time between run groups, etc. lots of wasted time. I was literally there for 13 hours and didn't even stick around to work the corners for the last few run groups. (Yes, I was that jackass)

MAC runs their events much more efficient IMO.

ah... I just really want to run Dakota tech. Anyone run there before? Is it faster than a normal autox? The course they have there is really cool and seems to have good potential.

DCTC is super fast compared to other auto-x's I've seen. In my old slow stock automatic wrx I was hitting 65-70 mph in the straights.

that's awesome. I think I'll put up with the standing around.

DCTC is the most fun autocross course I've ever driven.

I have run DCTC for the BMW driving clinics and it's like a mini road course. Running the Evo at 30psi was a mistake, 15-20psi would have been more than enough for how tight that course is.
