awesome to see so many subies out there today. Lets keep it up for the next autoX

-Mark C.

 

i was there but i definetely need new tires, could barely make the turns, i got something like 40, 43, and 45 in stsn

o well it was fun definetely going to try that again

 

its not the tires ....

definitely fun day

 

Fun day as always. That was a nice course. My tires were hooking-up perfectly.
Saw that spin on your first run,Edison.

 

yea i guess, this was my first time ever

however, the tires are worn almost all the way to the wear mark
do people run with old tires? all the ones i saw were good street tires or slicks

 

Replace 'Tylenol' with 'Advil' and you're golden. Taking Tylenol after drinking, even the following morning might be detrimental to your liver.

Anyways, I ended up running a 38.5 after a glorious spinout on my first run. I went completely backwards and broadsided 4 cones.

 

... ya that spin was fun... NO CONES hahaha

 

Yeah. I spun twice Both relatively in the same place. Might have to do how the suspension is set-up. Like... my front is totally dumped. Like totally dumped and I think that contributed to hit. I have a few things I can do before the next event that I think will help. Other than that. I had a lot of fun. Learned a ton of new things. Looking forward to the next event.

Camp Subaru was fun. We need to bring out a canopy next time.

 

yeah, im on the outter wear indicators. For some tires, its a good thing, as they go bald, they get faster

 

serious? well thats nice i guess, maybe ill just get better and wear out the tires faster or something getting better laps

however, it definitely looked like the cars with slicks (did the silver rx7 have slicks?) were definitely going a lot faster

 

The cars running slicks, were running r-compounds likely, esp the stock class guys

No tread=larger contact patch=mo grip

tire size and selection isnt huge when you are first learning, but becomes critical when you want to hang with the really fast drivers

 

Yep. He runs on Goodyear slicks.

 

Is it the red RX ? Were you in the first run group ? If so, I have a pic or two of you.

 

I was in the first run group, but I was driving the black FC turbo on gold wheels. I was coming around that left hand sweeper after the first slalom/hairpin and managed to turn almost a complete 360 before sideswiping a cone and all 3 of the pointer cones.

 

anyone get any pics from this?
