Default Autocross in beautiful Packwood WA this weekend, both days!

Anybody in the NW that thinks they can drive better come and show us you can

Or, if you know you need some improvement, come on out and learn.

I gaurantee you will learn alot more about car control autocrossing than in any other venue that is the safest way to do so and it just may save your life someday.

Sorry no videos, no video camera.

This is just another shakedown perdiod for our car, far from optimized yet, will be NA still as the turbo is not yet completed.

We have alot more in store for the car before we are going to be as competitive as possible and ultimately, do not expect to win our class due to running against very built M3, STI and EVO as well as built featherweight Civics.

But, we are going to be far quicker than some of those guys could ever imagine and beating some of them as well.

Once we get the car really dialed in over the next few months we will start posting some times for our class and other classes so you can get a comparision of just how quick our car is going to be

We do not have race tires on the car yet as well but last fall at the last event we did quite well considering the brakes were not working well, no LSD and street tires in a race tire class;)

Well, I am going to miss Saturdays event, just finished working on the car after a long day of running my business and then 8 more hours on the car, 17 hour day today, just could not get it all done on time. But, I plan to be there on Sunday unless something is not quite right, when you mod a car as extensively as mine, sometimes you have a bit of fine tuning to do;)

My tuning consists of making sure if have enough gas (1/2 tank or more), tire psi 38f/32r (so far), and making sure my helmet isn't on backwards (that sucks).
