I need to de-stress, so I have entered this weekend's auto-x event.

But, I must like pain. I am running in GS for this event with my Automatic Integra (all stock) Sad

and the other competitors so far are the following:
2007 Civic Si (k20 with LSD)
2002 VW Golf GTI (1.8 turbo)
2007 VW Golf GTI (2.0 turbo)
2007 Mini Cooper S (1.6 turbo)

Ha ha , mih cut arse booked!!

At this point I am just hoping not to come in last.

knowing that SCCA does not use a power to weight ratio, i'm curious how that integra ended up in a class with those vehicles.

Just lose as much weight as possible and run real hard tyre pressures. That's my strategy! hahaha Wink

Well OK.

Ran Sat night. But I entered STS class in error instead of GS (which I told you guys I was gonna be in).

Ha Ha. It was brutal. I ended up in 13th place out of 14. But if I ran in the GS class like I said I was gonna do, I would have come in 3rd (which means I would have beaten 2 of the cars in the class). That teaches me to run in the SCCA with 500 treadwear tires and 10 year old shocks.

Probably still left 2 seconds out on the track somewhere.

Thing is ..... The winner in GS was a Mini Cooper S on Hoosiers, and he beat me by all of 3.6 seconds ??????

These guys should be able to do better than that .....

I just need to find some $$ to do the mods Smile

Results will be posted as soon as the author of the article that will be going on the home page with the link to the pics, has recieved them. In an attempt to be efficient after solodex 3, the results were posted before this was done, which caused an apparent lack of an article for this said event.
