First AX

[Idaho Red Rocket 3]

I did my first AX recently. It was the last event of the season so the SCCA had only a $15 fee to race for the day. Me and bunch of other newbies tried it out. I have to say it was very fun. I think it is to hard on my Wifes daily driver to do the 26 events the local club has each season. In order to make winning time it will take many $$$ of modifications and some way better than street tires to compete. Here is the thing, if we spend a possible $5000 in mods and tires the car will only do the lap in 5 to 10 seconds faster. I have not been able to convince myself that the fun factor is there for me to spend this much money and tear up my car. I think if I was to go into AX for real, I'd need a track car.
