Here is a in car shot of my best run at the last autocross in Austin, TX. The tire setup I have makes the car oversteer really bad, so dont make fun of the "cowboy up" fish tails.

I still lost to an RX-8 because my setup, I have 340 treadwear, he had 30. But I still got .3 seconds away on STREET TIRES!

I kept trying to hug the cones, but I wanted to keep it clean. I didnt hit a single cone all day! But I need to "back side" the cones more!

Its not as difficult at it looks. The hard part is being able to get 90-95% out of it in only 3 runs.You do get to walk the course before hand and plan a strategy.

the course only gets confusing the first couple runs. But here are more in car shots... you can see that after like 3 views it gets easier to memorize!
