04/23/2011 - Autocross @ Old Dominion Speedway

[tsmall07]

I thought the course was great and I had a lot of fun. I treated the wet as an opportunity to refine my car-control techniques a bit. I'm not doing the auto-x for competition, though.

my sti is actually very poorly set up for STU, i am running -2camber up front and -1rear, and 8k6k spring rates and stock sways. I had the car set up a while ago but now that im getting more competitive im gona switch all that out. I totaly agree with the pm not counting if you ran am and pm. I just think after 7 runs regardless you should pretty much have your best time haha im used to only getting 3-4 runs total running scca. according to what i heard i had the fastest clean run over all,but as for offical position couldnt tell ya. dont really expect it to count seeing i ran am and pm.

but for real!! great event and nice people! i will be running with yall again for sure!!

Interesting....well, in any case you LOOKED fast, lol. We were at the far station near the turnaround during your PM runs and they were impressive in any case.

Had a blast out there this weekend. I couldn't for the life of me though find any traction with my Star Specs going through that large puddle. Regardless, it was a lot of fun, can't wait for the next event. NCC never disappoints!

First off i would like to thank every who came out, We do this for you, and you make these events possible. So thank you all for coming out and tearing it up.

Now on to what you all really want to know, we are sorting out the results, between the cars on the oval, start being drowned out by cars, people not marking there cars clearly, and people asking the timing guys questions we're having to sort through the results by hand and add in corrections we had taken notes of. As usual i will be opening up a corrections thread for these results, so if you have an timing issues , mis classed, etc that can be caught before they are finalized.

Had fun for my first time out. Yesterday, my GF discovered she forgot to turn in one of the radios. I was wondering if its possible to meet up with a club member somewhere in NoVA. Id like to turn it back in.

shit....when I was in college my budget afforded me an '87 integra with crappy springs, broken A/C, and leaky fuel injectors. You're doing well, lol.

that does remind me....so what's the deal with Liberty U, does you promo'ing them get you tuition discount or something, or is it a straight "cash for car parts" type of thing. And if you don't want to say, no worries....just curious.

What was the split in the PM?

It's sad to see the lake completely gone in those vids.

Not sure what class they put me on the Green Mini S. I had slicks so that would probaly be modified. It was fun. I think my best clean run was in 28.9 or something. Last run was a blast wanted to go the first slalom without even taking my foot of the gas. I spined right before chicago box lol.

Few weeks back installed used cat back alta exhaust and it definatly feels better on high RPMs. But the guy I bought this exhaust from "forgot" to mention that he has the mufler on the mid pipe moved from next to cat to right under the fuel tank and there is no space for it. I wander why he did it? The damn thing sticks out ... oh well, gonna have fun learing how to weld to move it back where it belongs.

I thought I was going to miss my 99SEL, but after the 04 WRX, only thing I miss is the VQ torque.

Funny how many maxima owners are around other forums/cars.
