The Great Autocross Mega Thread!
 
It was good to see some of you guys,
thanks for coming, I finally got to have a decent last run to get first in AS.

Matt got a great time followed by Brandon and Dave:

I can wait to see more EVO's around the course.

Here some videos of my last run:

How you shaved off .8 that last run is beyond me, the run didn't look that smooth to me. I know I had time left in that offset after the first slalom, and in both hairpins. I feel I was going as fast as I could down the concrete slalom, but seeing those BMWs fly through it made me feel like I was going slow as hell.

I can't wait for August 3rd!

I know ,but I was faster and took the last slalom on the right. I would have done much better time if I had been smoother, Oh well next time...

Even with my turbo exploding I had a good time. Was nice to try a Miata, very diffrent to drive to say the least! Quite fun though!

Do you think that last slalom was faster exiting inside or outside? Entering right and exiting left seemed more natural and smoother to me.

of course, Randy gave me that advise it worked perfect for me

Randy had to tell you? I figured it out on my own. ;)

That's not what you were saying on Sunday. Between calling me an asshole and asking if I was raped as a child, I don't know if I can believe you. :( ;)

Re: Another Great Autox day....
 
If I could have switched classes when I switched cars I would have been fastest E Stock in the street tire index. Oh well. My last 3 runs were in Paul's old Miata.

As Andres said!!! Come and do some ride alongs if you're interested in AutoX at all. I came last year and rode with Chris D, Andres, and Randy (06 MAC driver of the year I believe).

Definitly worth your while! And yes, it changed my life.

Hopefully see some of you on the 13th.

It's about time you signed up, noob. Make a Welcome thread.

Yes, anyone who has any curiosity/animosity/interest in autocross should come out. This is the local prep event for an upcoming national event, so the area's top drivers will be out tweaking their cars and driving. Bring a Snell 2000+ helmet, sign the waiver and you'll be free to ride in anyone's car. It's as close as you can get to participating in an actual event without doing so. Come spend an hour and see what it's all about.

I now have my autocross numbers all ready to go for next weekend's event!

On my racing fridge:
http://www.dsmstyle.com/photopost/da...26-08_1912.jpg

Zac (hellomynameis) and I both have these, except his say Mitsubishi instead of my MitsuStyle. His dad works at some industrial printing place in Chaska so these were silk screened onto white magnetic sheets. I am SUPER happy with how they turned out and think they look great (and quite professional). Thanks again to Zac and his crazy dad :D

Here's a little gallery of my Dad and I...well, mostly my Dad, printing up the number plaques for Chris and myself.

He got beat by a Forester XT. :(

I hit more cones yesterday than I've hit all year combined. Apparently I was supposed to get a rerun for some reason and was never told. :madashell:

Thanks Andres! I don't even remember hitting that cone, I thought that run was clean :(

Matt D. 08-04-2008 06:10 PM

Re: The Great Autocross Mega Thread!
 
I found out that the reason I had a run missing from the timing sheet is that I was supposed to get a rerun for my first run but was never told so. I'm kind pissed, but what can you do?

Kracka 08-04-2008 06:20 PM

Re: The Great Autocross Mega Thread!
 
Nadda. We go again and do it all over!

It was nice meeting you Chirs. I look forward to seeing you at other events. You would have mopped up SI if you would have had a clean run.
