Well sunday 6/22 I raced my first SCCA auto cross and let me just tell you it was fun. exspecially when i dropped 4s off my time in the first two runs. and also almost had a crazy spin out since I pushed it a little to hard and probaly should have lowered my tire pressure due to the heat after two other hard runs....or the other way around not sure totally which way it goes either way i was a little unprepared and in a nervous time also backed over my chips lol had alot of butterflies that day....but here are the times I ran and i hopfully will have some pictures up(my friend took'em and he wasnt to great and was only there for half the time.
Run Time(s)
1 51.441
2 47.81
3 45.96
4 43.18
5 42.72
6(I almost spun out in this one but recovered and saved it with a good overall time of 43.88s
It was a small event not to many people came but the ones who did had definately much newer cars than me and one guy came with a full track M3 with competition big brakes....but yea I now know what to bring and what not to bring definately was totally unprepared gotta set things up a day ahead so im not rushing trying to get things prepped and ready...but overall it was a fun day and I got 1st in my class i was in Honda Street prepared since well my interior was taken out(the rear anyways) and I was the only one in my class.
I am planning on going to other regions this season seeing how things are there and probaly going to buy a helmet since im really hooked on this and know im going to be going to alot of events but first my memebership has to be arranged 10$'s cheaper....hope you enjoy and tell me what you think of my times the only thing i really had on was a rear strut tower bar didnt have time for my neuspeed front bar to be put on and my friend hot wired my vtec to a switch since it never worked and now it dose but i only use it when the engine is warm and at 3500 on up.....
And dont worry pics are on there way just have to reformat into jpeg
