It was quite cold. Ambient air for our runs was around 12C with medium winds, which meant that our cars basically got reset each run (in terms of tire warmth) due to the wait time between passes. I had one semi warm tire (front right) due to winds blowing motor heat into it, the rest were freezing, which did a number on my balance.skydragoness wrote:A badass sweep of SM for sure.

Too bad about DST and its effect on the event (timing truck with all the equipment was no where to be seen until 9:30am); there would have been fun runs to spare later. I did really well on those last month. Then again, it was getting so damn cold later in the afternoon. So cold. I was impressed how quickly they got things moving though once the truck arrived.
Possibly, DC events have around 200 entries so it'd be hard to tell.PEZi720 wrote:out of curiosity, did a girl in a mazda 3 hatch ever show up to a DC event? she races with us locally but moved out there a while ago... she's back now so you won't see her... but i'm wonderin' if she ever went to an event while she was there
You have a few months before the season opens. Plenty of time =)Reverend D21 wrote:Still saving for helmet acquisition. I'm trying, I'm trying!

While a track is fun (and also my primary focus this year while working on capturing an east coast time trial championship), raw driving talent is much more of a factor with autocross than it is on a circuit. A circuit, you already know your braking zones, you've run the course dozens to hundreds of times, there is no surprises aside from who may have spun or stuffed it. In an autox, you have to read new courses each week at lightning speed, decipher your own braking zones for your particular car and try to find out which line works the best for you all in a matter of four runs.Koshin wrote:the only thing youll miss while autocrossing is a real racetrack
I'm a bit inebriated. I think my cat could pull the wool over my eyes right now. Matter of fact, she may have as she's on the couch and I'm on the lame fold up chair. Gah! Foiled again!Koshin wrote:lol, I was just Joshing you. Making sure you were paying attention :P
Go buy one then =P They're not super expensive. I bought three last year and tab for just the karts wasn't in the five figures.alms24sebring wrote:I want!
