    Not quite as cool as this one :twisted:

    That's Alex Schipkov, finished 3rd overall at the Nationals in DSP this year.

        Didn't even know I did it until I looked at the pics. That was right at the finish, they had the track laid out with a box on the left and then a 90 to the right to cross the finish.

            Yes. The Houston BMWCCA does their autocrosses on the Houston police academy training track.

                    Hell without you in the passenger seat I would have had more gap under there

                      Brodee, no track rims for you? I hate autocrossing on the throwing stars. Even with the wider rubber, those extra 6lbs per corner is REALLY noticable.

                          Man, that is a cool picture. Alex still > you.....that video is awesome.....

                          That police practice lot is a good idea. Our CCA didn't have any Auto-X this summer..... :roll: Primarily because lack of location......

                            I'm looking for a cheap set of light 15's to get for the track, just haven't been looking that hard. Anyone have any??

                              Cheap set of light 15's? Kosei K1's or Team Dynamics Pro Race's. Both proper offset, both dirt cheap.
