Results from my first event

[spiffy9999]

OK, so i went to my first Auto-x event this past weekend, even though i had to leave at the lunch break because my family was getting overheated and just wasn't having as much fun as planned we still had a pretty good time. I just figured I would post the raw results from the event here to get a little bit of feedback from the community.

Good stuff man!

Honda Fit beat the SI....Nice!

[spiffy9999]

lol, the si was being driven by the scca chapter solo II chairman's (or whatever he was) daughter, who had just turned 16...though the fit was being driven by a 16y/o boy....it was fun to watch both of them...and i tried to expand the format for easier reading and it just compressed it back...

nice job, either you did really well or your fast guys arent that fast or i just suck lol . Im lucky to be 6 seconds raw behind our top guys (3 national competitors)

[itg3rl]

(@spiffy9999) I was pleasantly surprised at how well you drove the stock speed. It looked good too. We look forward to seeing you at some Mississippi events. Trust me we all understand about the family. I never thought I'd see the day myself where we picked up in the middle of an event to leave for any reason, but we did too, so don't feel bad. The boy had to go to the vet.


You had better keep going to events. Even if you run stock....you'll still kick some ass.

I enjoyed your wife, she's a saucy one!

He did well. And a couple of our national guys were not there. The guys running the cobalt and the z06 are going to blytheville and are expected to do well. We had a couple s2000 and miatas not show. They usually clean up.
I think I could have easily got into the 62s. Its a really small area but we set it up to do two laps so it definitely favored the light rwd and fwd cars. The only problem was the three hairpins. Keeping revs up and boost around the corners was key.

Both spiffy and itg3rl did well. I was proud.

I hope your boy feels better! I was thinking about him today as mini me got 6 shots! As soon as we get the info on the June event in MS we will be planning for it. I can't want until I finally can try auto-x for myself, just as soon as #3 is here, I plan to start.
