Not stock anymore. Big brakes, coilovers and I think exhaust. She's on ProPAX Ladies (STX).

Just got back from the ProTour at Packwood, it was awesome. I knew I was in trouble in XP but, I think with just some more tire and I can be a bit more competitive in the class.

Quick in car video from Sunday's track:

You dont need more tire, you need THE RIGHT TIRE first.

Yeah, R888s are going bye bye. But I will not be running a 235 on a new setup, going wider, not drastic though.

I ran 245 V710s on my SMF civic a few years back, it was amazing, I miss R-Comps, lol

You need to shove a 255 or bigger R-comp on there.

I forgot to post this autox event in Packwood this coming up weekend on Saturday and Sunday. Saturday is the only day I will attend the event. I usually drive up the morning of the event at 5:30 AM and stay until 3:30 PM before trekking home. The drive is roughly 1:45 minutes one-way. To also spark everyones interest, I received the message below from the car club regarding the event;

"Hi all, This is our last event in Packwood for this season so last chance for you to get a lot of seat time, 30-50 runs if you want them.

More seat time than any where else, Onsite camping is allowed, Spaghetti Dinner Saturday night provided as well. Come join us for some autox fun and sitting around the campfire at night. (gas camp fire, open fires are not allowed).

See you there!"

I attended the June event and completed 31 runs. A friend attended the July event and competed 50+ runs. Post here if your interested in attending. All this for $40.00
