Default Winter Auto-X

Road America hosted a slalom and auto-x on the infield go cart track. The MS3 easily got first in the FWD division since the competition wasn't that deep, and 18th out of 50 overall in a sea of Subaru's.

More importantly, I had an absolute blast. Don't have to track prep my high mileage MS3 or worry about being too hard on tires or brakes. Lastly, learned a lot about the handling characteristics of the FWD platform and the MS3 in general, more so than previous track days during the summer. Just thought I'd share

That looks like a lot of fun. Side note; I've never seen snow IRL.

I wish I did these auto-x's earlier with how much snow the north gets and how much fun they are. Looking to run a ice track on a lake in Minnesota in a couple weeks. Even though the cold sucks, it's nice to make the most of it

Come join us at NATOR MN. I did an event last year with CWSCC, but haven't been out yet this year. What event are you looking at doing? The Audi one?
