October 1st Autocross
So i was at the autocross for the 1st day and i only saw one other DSM down there, a white 1g with some body damage. Where was everyone, you should have beeen there it was fun, everyone got to make six runs, and there was time for some fun runs too. They used half of the valleyfair parking lot so it was a huge course. Well maybe you will go next year see you later.

Re: October 1st Autocross
You guys gotta come out to the rallycrosses. That's where the DSM's shine in the corners.

Re: October 1st Autocross
Rallycross is the same as autocross, but on an unpaved surface.
You are thinking about stage rally. They run down the roads at break-neck speed.
Did you lower your car? Or are you saying the stock clearance is too short? Unless you lowered it, you shouldn't have too much of a problem.
As far as rock chips, get a regular set of mudflaps and put those on. I don't have any rock chips from rallycross and I've raced 2 seasons with mine without mudflaps. You are slinging rocks away from your car.

Re: October 1st Autocross
We have a rallycross coming up on Oct 30 just north of Hammond, WI. I will be posting up about it within the next day or two. It is in the same place that we had it last month.
If you need any info or are interested in going, let me know.
