What the hell? That's like coolest autocross ever. We never have any cool cars at our autocrosses. Best we get is some C5 vettes and maybe an e46 m3.

wow, I would NOT want to try to be competitive at one of your autocrosses. I mean it's fun and all, but if I had the money to build a car like that I wouldn't be doing autox to begin with...

The SM and XP BMW's normally don't come out here on a regular basis, in fact with the season approaching the mid-point this is the first time I've seen car 199 and 195 here locally . The usual crew in SM here is a mk4 gti apr stage 3 (just switched to 255 17" tires all the way around) driven by a local buddy (with a co-driver), his friend in an audi tt 1.8t (on victoracer tires), a 2nd gen turbo integra (trailer car), e30 m3 or 2, co-worker of mine who is just starting out with his built crx (but he really is in SM2 as it's a 2seater) (just picked up a set of rt615s), a 3rd gen integra, a mustang, miata and a couple others.

My car really doesn't fit any other class right now (I can't run in FSP due to the drum to disc swap for example) and I am really just doing this for fun and comparing my times against other low hp cars such as miatas for example and consistent drivers to see if I am improving. I know my car is WAY under powered for this class, but for the next season it should be a little more competitive on a local level with more power ;)

LOL, well for now, I don't have $40k to build a race car, so I'm not going anywhere yet. :p

and my new hoosiers JUST got here. I would have taken first in PC yesterday if I'd had them.. oh well!

Bad luck man, DJ didn't even show up and you could have taken an easy win...I bet you would have beaten that healy. Still, you looked good on the KDW's. We were working station 2, with the long right hand sweeper, and you carried alot of speed through there.

They posted my times wrong! I thought I had this fixed yesterday as I stayed late and confirmed that I indeed had a clean 53.779, good enough for 3rd in OS and 19th overall of 163. They said it would be fixed before they were posted

Btw-Bob's car is scary fast...very different than anything ive ever driven, steep learning curve driving his car.

**nando** · 06-04-2007, 11:19 AM

yeah it looked like you were a bit intimidated by it.

I'll just have to beat derek next time :)

you can't backdate/update because of the disc conversion?

**whiltebeitel** · 06-04-2007, 05:14 PM

Holy table-like spoiler, Batman!

At A&m, we have some serious people turnout with CP cars and some nationally competitive people, but nothing this grand! Sure, we get plenty of C5 Z06's, but Vipers? Austin-Healey's? Supras?

Dang!
