I plan on doing more mods while staying in ESP, so we'll see how that goes. In car, it felt like I had more body roll than a fat stripper. My tire pressure was a bit low, after the event I was rolling some rubber off my sidewalls lol.
with esp (and sm for that matter) R-compounds are a must to be competitive. although with that said we are both in unique situations...you-not a big class me-azenis are about the closest to a r comp you get with a street tire and my suspension setup is good enough that I can maxmize the grip I have.

so for now I say put on the coilovers and pump your tires up to around 41 front and 39 rear. put some white marks on the edge of the tread/beginning of the side wall and see if those pressures work. seat time is your best friend. if you love it find auto-x's in poughkeepsie, ma, ct. and anywhere else to get seat time.

The last thing I'm doing there is trying. I just have a good time driving like a jackass with my friends. Car wont win SM with guys like EJ, DJ, and Byron in the class so I'm there to have fun.

I remember the days of building a car for autox and getting all serious about the competition... A lot of work and stress for 6 minutes of driving (or at least 8-9 when I was in MD).
Don't be hatin' because you have to be on top of your car control game to be good.

My car control is just fine as exhibited by my 6 runs at a constant state of sideways.

LOL No shit there's more in there. If you find someone that gives a shit, have them codrive. In the meantime I'll be having a blast doing 56s and 57s with 1-4+ cones. You run a fast clean time at the autox, get out of the car, and say, "great, can I go back to having fun now?"

Autox is too ridiculous to take serious. I've already got season autox trophy, so I'm done.

Now I'm stuck on time trials and fast laps out of 2nd gear.

Bring a car that doesnt break so you can put your car where your mouth is.

Probably. Driving up to Canada without a trailer is a brilliant idea....


But seriously. Stop breaking down so we can get a hot lap in.
