Default Autocross action ***VIDEO ADDED***

"DDY RCKT" and I represented Lateral-G at the local Autocross on Sunday. It was windy as hell, but a lot of fun to get the car out there and slice up some cones. Needless to say, the car got a lot of attention and I gave several rides to people. I'll post up video as soon as I can find the cable to rip it from the camera. In the meantime, here's some pics. Hopefully DDY RCKT will post up the ones he took as well.



got a little cone rash! No worries, it'll clay bar out

Very cool. I'm glad to see another car on this site at the local autocross. Cool pictures. Maby next time figure out a way to mount the Video camera for the in-car video.

He's working on that. Just need to find someoneto make a fitted cage for his 'Bu, with harness mounts and a camera mount.

By the way, Eric (I hope I remembered right. I'm awful with names!) is an awesome dude, and that car is scary when he gets on it.

Man, I wish I'd have known you guys were going, I would have made the trip up to run with you! I ran there last year. You guys should make the trip down to Tidewater and run with us on the beach. We should start up sometime in April. There is also a cool boardwalk car show you should bring the Full Ryd down for. I may make the next VMSC auto-x, and I'm running with the NASA guys at VIR in March. How did you do on the course? Did the wind keep moving the cones around on ya! Lot's of the guys here local were complaining about the course.
