UBC AutoX Jan 13/13 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

jsooke · 01-15-2013, 10:33 AM

First time out with the BRZ. It is fun to drive. 27th on raw time. Probably should register as STX at UBC (has better PAX than CS) or get some R-comps. 5th in Road Tire group.

6th run was fastest official time:

And on 2nd run a little bit of power on oversteer and too much correction

This was taken on iPhone. Later on this week will have the other videos processed with better quality.

Now ready for the home soil AutoX on the 20th

Great job, thanks for the video. The only problem is I get to watch you guys having all of the fun while I sit here and wait out winter.

It looks like you had a good turnout, 70 racers on a cold day, that is great. What tires are you using? I bet the colder temperatures makes traction a little tougher, good practice for handling.

Keep the videos coming so we that are snowbound can dream of warmer, drier days.

Running RE-11, so yes a bit cold for them. But it also meant nobody was running R-comps. Did not measure heat, but there was barely any rise in pressure after a run.

More video soon, higher quality from a helmet cam and outside the car.

Another event on the 20th in Victoria, and then back to Pitt Meadows on the 3rd of Feb.

Ohh, no Ice Racing or RallyX here ..... one scheduled for the 20th has been postponed due to poor ice conditions.

Since being on only one AutoX I already feel way more comfortable on the streets with this car.
