FIRST TIME AUTOXING FRS

OMG running the frs was so incredible on the track. Never understood everyone saying it was easy to swing out the tail & drift, buy on the track Jesus, its so noticeable & fun as hell. When all the ss camaros were making 1:04:00+ times. I was making lap times at 1:01:42 sti's were at 59-58's w some sticky tires alone ill be right there w them. I was drifting this thing like crazy, unintentionally thou but, it still held its ground. Had my phone video recording in between the passengers seat & head rest lol. Caught a spin out on vid w a bunch of dirt coming in lol. Had a great time, can't wait to do it again

Is this the typical Corpus auto-x site? It looks like it might be some good grippy concrete...

Yea. This is the place we always hold the events at. Great pavement other then the slight drop off on the sides if u spin like I did lol. 3 different coarses rotating every 4 month's. First weekend of every month stbrscca.com my names Marco Palacios in the results. & its a navy air strip used for training, they always get permission to use it every event. If not (ive never seen a day they dont) they'll post it online & hold it the following weekend.

Lol as mentioned this wasnt my best run. I shaved off a whole second my last run. I also noticed after watching the vid there r a lot of places I can improve, I was just nervous. Everyone had there eyes on me. Everyone wants to know what the frs frs has. I was the first one to enter in corpus
