Thanks but i wish i could have knocked those extra seconds off. There were a few places where i could have made up alot of time. I missed a downshift on that sweeper in front of the trailer and that prevented me from powering through the turn and getting full speed on that long straight. I think that is pretty much a whole second right there. I also braked too early on the final sweeper because i was feeling the back end wanting to swing around on me under threshold braking.

Re: Autocross event 7/13

pulled down a 50.8, I'm starting to think that F-bodies can run with the big boys. Still got work to do on the car but at least I'm going in the right direcction! managed a 43rd spot on the podium!
