Hey everyone, I just found this site after being refered here from someone over at LS1tech. Man I wish I would have found this sooner. I looked around just a little and I like what I see.
To let you all: I've participated in a few autocrosses (about 5), but on a very sparatic basis and all on street tire (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I haven't done one in awhile, since I wanted to run 12s in the 1/4, which I did last year. So now I'm ready to get serious about autocross and maybe even go to a road race. I've decided that I'm going to race in SM i believe (the one above ESP) because I refuse to change back to my stock shifter (to stay in fs) and I have a few minor engine mods that would probably bump me out of ESP and I'm planning on getting sub frame connectors this month. Later Derek |

Hey, I'm a new to the message boards too. I see there are a lot of 4th gen cars here, any other 3rd gens lurking too? I'm usually stirring the pot at thirdgen.org but I'm glad to see there is a place for us guys who like to make turns too.
I've been autocrossing on and off for about a total of 4 years, can't wait to get a set of race tires under me. Most of this experience has been with NASA Northeast at Giant's Stadium. Hopefully I'll get a chance to hit Pocono or Lime Rock soon, but not before the motor swap, subframe connector install (sitting in the basement for too long), upgraded brakes, tranny rebuild, prom tuning, and.......... I'll have to get used to all the ESP, STU etc. talk. Is there anyplace to get a quick rundown of what everything means? I know I'm classed in E with the people at NASA, it is a pretty straight foward classing where you get points for each modification. Once I'm done I think I'll wind up in C someplace. |
