First Autocross!
So this weekend I did my first autocross event ever, with the Mississippi SCCA chapter.

Wow!

There were about 25-30 cars for the 2 day event. The first day I finished 11th or so, and 2nd in my class.

Today I finished 4th overall, and 1st in my class.

I think I've found a new hobby (and a GREAT new way to destroy my tires!) I beat out a re-finished 3.0 liter 1978 911 SC, an M3, WRX STI, a Supra, a BMW Z4...very excited!

Just thought I'd share!

-Kevin

Congrats on your great finish. I did one last summer and plan on doing a few more this year with the Champaign County Car Club. If anyone is near Cen IL and interested in doing some Auto-X let me know and I can give you details.
