Thanks for the great event. Really fun first time autoXing the new BRZ. I was number 94 white one. Key notes:
-fastest time I got was 62.5 running race comp sway bars and whiteline bushing on my stock Awesome rubber.
-Stock tires SUCK. Yeah have to say that.
-Car has enough power for a larger or faster autoX
-everyone at the event was great to talk to and NASA staff were awesome and very helpfull.
Chris was great helping guide on what ways to manipulate the course with the car and helped me drop time each lap.
-new wheels and tires can't get here fast enough even though te car has only been around for a little over a week.

Thanks again to everyone and watching others run. It was fun and need to set another one up. I have to say out I all the cars I've run I have never seen that many guys come from a forum and actually run the cars, even stock ones. Thanks.

Best time was 62.6

....until I hit a cone.

i think my fastest was a 62.2, but i could be wrong. My codriver managed a 59.x in my car though.

Tire pressure definitely took a couple runs to dial in. can't wait to get my strano front bar and some camber bolts. Should be able to get back into the throttle much sooner.

Its a short video basically of the Launch and a few corners but its better than nothing I say lol. If we do an autocross and my car is in the shop I can be a dedicated camera guy just so hard when your racing lol

Hey Alex,

Thanks for your input on the track, I was gridded next to you and ended up shaving a good second off by the end of the day - ended with a 63.6. But yeah, stock tires suck.
