Cool pictures! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks... ..OSGIKEN 1.5 way is planned at somepoint..

The lot was pretty bumpy too...so I am sure that contributed to the unrest..

had an autocross yesterday I attended and took 5th in PAX and 13th raw time.

I've never autocrossed a RWD before so I have to keep reminding myself to drive it differently then my 2.5RS.

Question for you on the TPMS. I swapped the 2004 BBS rims and 225/45R17 Starspec tires from my 2.5RS to the BRZ. First off the BRZ rims look HORRIBLE on the RS haha

However about 30 miles later on the BBS rims without sensors, my TPMS has not come on. I'm fine with that. But I'm curious if the car knows there are no sensors and doesn't bother turning the light on. Or if it really takes a lot to get it to realize there are no sensors.

And what tire pressure did you run? I had 38psi in the fronts and 35psi in the rear.

Andy's run:

WOW.... The ass end was all over the place on your codriver. Was that his fastest run?

Did you mount the camera on the back windshield?

Yes... I will hopefully have some different angles this coming weekend, Hopefully I can find my camera mounts I have packed away somewhere....as I trek to Milwaukee...to compete with some gooood talent... Jason Franks, Colin Fiedler and some other 'pro' well setup cars.. ..My co-driver will be wheeling a WRX ...so it should be interesting... I could just run C-stock tire class with the mods I have...but what fun is that....wish my suspension would show up..:/...oh well..seat time is seat time I suppose..

Maybe you need a little more front bar to go with that rear bar!

Wow, just goes to show how much more balanced a car can look in the hands of one driver vs another (no offense). Also goes to show how much I need to work on my technique as my video from Sunday looks a lot more like yours than Andy's ;-)
