Yeah rev limit is set at about 8500, all stock internals. 7lbs of boost on 91 octane. Fun does not even begin to describe it!

Jasper threw down for his last run of the day, Sleeper keeps improving, Jeffsides has talent and could be a frontrunner if he can remember to keep both hands on the wheel, ninjin is definitely a player, especially once he installs his koni sports, and my car has become much faster now that my buddy is tuning it for autox. I don't how Mattles did, but he seemed to be having fun.

All SCCA autox registration has migrated to one site - http:// mindthecones.com Registration for Marana is open, which is next weekend on Sunday. Marana is an hour and a half south of Phoenix and a half hour north of Tucson. It is a big lot and offers long fast runs -they are normally done at 2:00 or so.

I did have a lot of fun as usual. Think my best time was that last run @ 76.5xx (I was really only able to achieve that thanks to Kevin's very helpful instruction.)

It was a pretty advanced course out there, I hope we get the chance to run at AMP in the future.

I don't know if 68.5 counts as "way down" Kevin's car certainly was though. I got to watch it run while I worked course, it's an amazing setup and was driven by some very talented people. That car was turning like a well set up Miata.

@jeffsides, that was a time to be proud of, especially considering you set it in the very dusty first run group. It was interesting to see how the course got grippier as the day went on, but the downside was dust and gravel pushed on the side of the line, I went off the line a few times during time only runs and paid for it.

I finally got my video uploaded.

Here's the only comp run I remembered to record. Of course it's the one where I spin. (Seems there's always a run where I spin)

Btw, I suggested the pedal dance. DO NOT DO IT AUTOXING! Sorry for shouting, but it sends the car into ice mode and the brakes freakout.

Nice video! That track looks good and long. Nice big turns not as many hairpins.

I need my car back starting to get depressed and dont want to drive anywhere in this rental. Lol

Yeah, I was a lot slower and less in control with the pedal dance active. It does let you turn the car very effectively with trail braking, but seems to severely limit your overall stopping power. I can see why some guys *might* want to use it with very aggressive mismatched pad compounds or something, but it wasn't working for me with stock pads.

Its a blast I have driven road courses drag strips and just recently drifting. autoX is cool because it really completely different but combines all of them in a 30sec window I have a new respect for people that autoX that I didn't before I tried it.
