Default Now THIS is autocross...

I know some road race guys scoff at autocross and act like they are all the Goodguys peanut, but a real autocross course can be pretty fast and certainly challenging.

Went to the Porsche Club El Toro event and had some fun.. it was a great day and did did a lot of tuning, eventually Doug at Global West came to the conclusion we need more front bar to help ditch the push. Turn in was great as was corner exit.

Course was about 1.5 miles long and we were hitting between 80 and 90 mph in spots. We ended up getting around 12-14 runs.. which was a lot. I was beat by the time I drove home.

BP got an extra workout since I let wheelman Bill Chin drive here since his Camaro had an oiling issue.

The video is better if you go to youtube and full screen it..
