The r3v autocross video thread

[mohmoh62]

this is my 4th autocross and i'm looking for any tips on how to be quicker. this course was very tight and the 4 turns to lock steering was a handful ( i'm in the process of swapping an e46 rack in now).
the car is an 87 325is with a 2.7i and a holset h1c; 205/50/r15 nitto neogen tires on 15x7 wheels. it spools around 3800 in 2nd gear and comes in like a truck which makes it more difficult to use.

i was a little under 4 seconds behind the leader in my class and times across all classes ranged about 10 seconds total difference. i know there's room for a lot of improvement on my driving and with the car setup, so if there are any tips you could give i'm all ears!

Autocross video from awhile back

Just thought to post this here. This was my last event of the year. Hoping to run every event next year.

BMWCCA auto-x this year in Indy. This was probably the most challenging course I've run. FTD.

4th fastest overall at the last event with only the Lotus guys and a vette with 305 slicks. Not to shabby for the ole e30 ;)

Sounds great dude, and nice run! Clipped a few but you're coming real close on the passenger side on most of em.

Here's a pretty fast course in the STR S2000. I thought I liked twitchy but this car remains a bit of a handful and I still don't trust it.. I spin in run 2 (with gf in the car no less) and final run is the fastest, 5th run was a second faster but the cam didn't catch it, oh well

First time out this year... finally... run was a bit sloppy, hit 3 cones, the 2nd one was a stupid one to hit, but I was testing out my new external mic and the sound is now delicious...


And after reviewing the video the course was out as that pylon in the slalom should have been in that box, someone had clipped it and a marshal didn't see... I should get a re-run! not that I really care lol...

I had some fun making this video today... trying my hand at multi-camera editing. (I had one Gopro, moving it around for each run I took.)

Spokes autocross in a parking lot at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX.

The s2000 is super quick steering!

I'm surprised how little steering angle you need for that car to turn. Guess I'm used to the slow E36 rack.

STR S2000... I think I edged out a GT academy winner with the 4th run but I'm not sure yet
