please /yourself and get out of this board, you contribute nothing but negative vibes.

 

Here's another car that "isn't an autocrosser."



:wink:

 

Better on the track than out in the street...have your fun and be safe. I bet it would be a blast and would love to see it!

 

This is really cool!

i look back at this thread and laugh.. my wall of trophies laughs too

 

Wow - dude - relax. Slowwwllyyy reach for that bottle of Paxil and take your daily meds, will ya? If you're ashamed of being part of the high quality people on this site, then please do us all a favour and look elsewhere. Your comments may be your own opinion, but you're insulting and way out of line...
A car doesn't have to be a "race car" to have fun racing it. Autocrossing is an affordable, accessible way for common schmoes to have fun driving their common cars in competition without spending their equivalent of a year's salary. A lot of the members here are in their teens and early 20s, and for many this is their first or only car. Who's to say they shouldn't be able to take what they've got and go have some fun??? No one's stated here that they're going to thrash every WRX STI and Ferrari at the event.
And to challenge your statements, I think you'd be pretty surprised at what a set of springs, shocks, sway bars and sticky tires will do for this car's handling. I've certainly embarrassed several "more impressive" cars in nearby canyons myself in my xB - from a Mini to a vintage Austin-Healey roadster to a Mustang GT.

 

could'nt have said it better myself Boxoffice!The people here are in fact real nice and classy from what i can tell so far, not many haters :ahhghem!:. All i have so far is s tech springs soon to be a rear sway bar i want to see how well this thing will corner, which my guess is will be great.I plan on building it to outhandle my and all my friends' 200 plus HP Hondas, lol. Surprise some people like truen, haha!

 

I race Class 11 (Off-road)... Some people may say "A 1973 VW Bug isn't going to survive a 1000mile off-road race in Mexico" and they are probably the same ones saying "Scions shouldn't be raced". To that I say, if it has wheels, there should be a race for it... be it a barstool, lawnmower, or grocery store scooter.

Any jack-hole can go out and buy a STi and call themselves a racer, but racing should be about skill and not equipment. Personally, I think it is more fun to finish in the middle of the pack, seconds behind the winner and seconds ahead of the loser, than it is to spend a god awful amount of money and smoke the field.

Unless you are getting paid to win, you should be out there to gain knowledge, make friends, and have fun.

 

 

Last weekend I took 3rd in STS at the SCCA autocross event. (Granted, there were only five cars, but it's still third! LOL)

 

THIRTY-NINE, how did you PAX?

 

I had a PAX of 0.805 (DS?).

I placed 38th out of 80 overall (indexed).

 

Yeah the second one was what i was looking for.

why are you in DS? that's not where an xB goes ..

 

I'm not in DS, I'm in STS (I thought my index was a DS index, but I'm probably wrong). I just know my index was .805.

 

Yeah, im with boxoffice and xbigjefe...having fun racing is whats important reguardless of what u drive. Besides, i think people would have respect for someone who made their scion noticeably faster just for the fact they went with what they liked and aren't one of the billions of people with a tuned honda/acura.

 

on mine it says "micro wagon"

 

cool cool, much better pax than FSP ;)
