Finally did my first AutoX. :D Have driving a lot on tracks. Pacific raceway, Portland International, but never until now an AutoX. It may be shorter, but it is quite a challenge and a blast. Everyone should do it.

I found the RX8 handles great. I was not sure at first, but next time I will see just how quick I can go without becoming a sinning top. :)

Enjoy the video. It has all five runs and final times as posted on the NW regional SCCA site. http://www.wwscc.org/event_results/2005/scca05-5.html#S2

Ya, I'm hooked. :rolleyes:

You need a better camera man. I couldn't see your car half the time.

It was the location we where limited to shooting from. http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/a05/4_12_12.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxdm117YYUS) I will be doing another AutoX at the same location on September 4. Hope to secure a better location to shoot the film. http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/a05/7_6_8.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxdm117YYUS)

We want to get a spot that will not be obstructed. The location I wanted they would not let anyone in there. Hey, what the heck, it is still not bad for the first time around. http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_1_11.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxdm117YYUS)

You should get some AutoX wheels before the next time you try it.

Nice list of upgrades. ;)

Nice list of upgrades. ;)Appreciate the suggestion, but I think I will keeps these. http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_7_14.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxdm117YYUS) Until I get to where I am pushing the car to it current limits, I am not going to make any major changes. I realize that everyone is looking to lightweight wheels. Well these are carrying very wide tires. And besides, I like how they look..

Watch for the next AutoX Video. We will see if I get any better. http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/4/4_17_6.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxdm117YYUS)
