Nice! I'm gonna have to try out an AX sometime. I figure I'll get around to joining the local PCA chapter and see if I can get to one with those guys. Looks like you had a blast!

BTW the framerate of the video camera made some weird mojo... it looks like your wheels aren't turning!

@unkle,

Sounds and looks like you had a blast! Auto-X is something that has really been crossing my mind lately,perhaps I should start attending(not participating) some events. Is that at Candlestick? How often do you guys have Auto-X at Candlestick?

We had our first PCA autocross last weekend. I'm running with the SCCA on Memorial Day at a brand new site. Should be fun!

And yes, it's addictive.

Hmmm,this is very tempting. I will try to do what I can though,between my brother(8th grade) and sister's(High School) graduating,my cruise to Mexico and Summer School starting up I will pretty busy in the next month or two. What are the dates and what do I have to bring/do to be able to attend these events?

Glad you guys/gals are having fun. This is what these cars are made for. I couldn't go this week... life got in the way. I am getting an itchy right foot just thinking about it. Time for a little canyon carving.
