How about another autoX meet/BBQ 8/19 at the NYR event at Nassau Coliseum? The solo chair for NYR told me I can organize it and we can have special awards for the BRZ/FRS crowd. The S2K guys did this a couple years ago. Thoughts?

I'd be interested but I'm going to be out of state that weekend.

Also, is NYR hosting a phase 2 evo school? I heard they might and I'd definitely be interested in taking it.

Pleasure meeting you today man. So happy to just get more seat time in the car. I'm definitely down to do an event but I can't make it on the 19th. Let me know though and we can work something out.

Ditto brother. You drove great for being on stock tires!! I told u weight matters I didn't see the final but my fastest lap was 58.015. Either way seat time is what matters I still haven't fully learned the car but after today I realize that it feels a lot easier to control with 2-3lbs of air over stock rather than 5-6. That course rocks.

I'm doing something wrong too! I need to have a fast driver take the car out for a run. Not sure if it's the alignment, tires, or it's just my bad driving that is causing the slow times. I spun out on two runs & I couldn't get my head around the course. Very disappointing.

How come I don't see any FR-S show up at the auto-x?

I guess the weight did help

I had to go down in pressure as well. I was sliding all over the place on my first run and went off course. I think we just need to get more seat time. I know I definitely need it.

Maybe it's the demographic that Scion is marketing to?

Hardly. I forgot the course by the time our heat was up to run.
