Thanks guys!!!

Next competition is this Monday! It is "Driving Skills"

Which sounds right up my alley, when I 1st read it I thought, ooooo slalom, car control ect... turns our we will have a cup mounted to the front of the car with a ball inside. It is our job to keep the ball in the cup as we do 10 laps around a circuit.

We will try and update everyone LIVE as the challenge happens on our FACEBOOK, and make sure to put up results here after!

When the car gets back we start preparing for drag and drift! We will be taking the car to local drags and drift events. Hopefully some of you guys could swing by and say hey!!

Congrats Richard. I didn't doubt you one bit when I heard the 1st event was an autocross

According to the Autoblog article you had the fastest time of all day including all the other 60+ people there

http://ca.autoblog.com/2012/08/27/sc...n-race-tracks/

Big congrats for that

^ Not exactly overall FTD - http://www.nationalautoslalom.ca/nats_sun_raw.html. I think they may have meant fastest time on street tires. Regardless, it still ended up being the 8th fastest time for the day, so that says enough for itself.

Again, great driving Richard. Best of luck throughout the rest of the challenge.

Guys... Is it just me or do you people fight to fit the gas pump nozzle in our cars as well? Perhaps it could just be the Chevron pumps? (The way the nozzle bends)

You're very right sir! Not overall FTD, but Autoblog posting it was FTD kinda helps with sponsor stuff, so I wasn't about to correct them. haha

Thanks for the support!! Hopefully we keep the medal this weekend!!!

I fill exclusively at chevron and haven't had an issue, just need to get the proper angle
