If your camera has a metering setting try adjusting it to "spot metering" instead of center or average, when it's sunny. You'll see better the outside( but the car interior will be darker)

Thanks I’ll look into it. I just have the cheapest go pro session. Nothing fancy.

Nice videos! I'm going to my first event this Sunday at BB&T, hoping to learn a lot and not embarrass myself too much. They'll have loaner helmets, right?

Is your AutoX group sponsored by a bodywork shop or something?


That course has more hazards than cones.

The difference in available grip and noise between a top tier tire and Falkens is insane. I'm making up numbers here, but I'm guessing a 1.5s difference. Here's my run from the same event with the tires giving up and screaming for help.

But it's totally OK because we're all on the same garbage! Right....? Guys...? :P

It's about 2s on a 60s concrete, I think. 1.5 seems right for asphalt.

Think about what you're giving up in time to Hoosiers! If we're not on Hoosiers then we can't POSSIBLY be having any fun!!!!!

Like seriously... if you hate the class so much and you hate the tires so much... leave. It's early in the season. You can still get used to a new car before Nats. Meanwhile down here, we have two people who got a chance to co-drive one this weekend that are now interested in building an SSC car either for this season or next. It's way more fun to drive than my car was in CS trim, even if the times don't show it.

My best for day 2:

Co-driver's best for day 2:

I had a 0.414 lead going into Day 2, but cone troubles on 3 runs and not being able to remove my head from my ass meant I ended up dropping to 2nd for the weekend.
