NASA-x at MIR with video

Hey guys i recently went to Memphis International Raceway for a Nasa held autocross. The event was great and group was very friendly. I have been autoxing with SCCA for a while now and this was first NASA event. Apparently Nasa is not limited by speeds like scca. I topped 3rd a couple times. It was very fun that they incorperated the road course as part of the course. i was around 85-90 in some spots. I was extremely impressed with how the car reacted with RS-3 tires. It acted like a totally different animal with easily predictable oversteer compared to stock tires. Other than tires the car has a Muffler delete turndown. This car is so wonderfull on track at speed. I cant wait to get it to a track day this year.

I took my class and was good for 3rd overall fastest time, not too bad for a stock car other than tires. I was bestest by a race preped miata and a 240 with an ls1 swap. I encounterd my first ZR1 at this event. I somehow beat him by 4 seconds. I guess its hard to lay down 730hp at an autox.

Enjoy guys
Sorry for all the wind noise

No kidding, really great driving OP. You kept that car right off the edge of the cones. Early turn in, good job. That's probably one of the fastest autocross courses I've ever seen. Wow. Basically a track event, lol.
