So this autocross thing can be a fickle bitch sometimes... I like to think that I'm getting pretty good at it and then I have an event like Sunday where I think I'm doing okay speed wise...and I end up 41st in raw time out of 130ish drivers. It wasn't just me though, a lot of the drivers I typically run similar times to in different cars were also way down on the time chart while others were way higher than normal. I'm still trying to process why and one of the things that helps is to watch videos from those that went faster on the same course.

Here was my fastest timed run in Group B (the one that counts). 46.243



Later in the Time only runs, I used the data from my solostorm and new 8" tablet to find ways to pick up speed.

E20 CAM-T TO Lance Hamilton 1985 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS 45.763 45.471 45.263 45.068

Here is my 45.068 run with data




Now, to totally blow our minds...here is Brian Peters in a 2018 1LE putting down a 42.879 in the cool run Group B I was in...

He later ran a 42.562 in time onlys...

The full results are here

You can sort by fast time, PAX or class...

The car ran great and it's ready for Good Guys this week...and I got to share my hobby with a couple of our new neighbors that had never experienced autocross before. So it's all good.
