Looks like a blast! Nice driving too. I'm sure that place would be a cone cemetery if I were out there!
I have killed a few cones for sure. This was my second Autocross event and I am making progress. My last run was 98.7 sec and experienced guys were in the 95 sec range. Another event in 3 weeks

The S2 tranny really is perfect for Autocross. At first I slid all over, learning to control the power. Now I need to get a bit more speed.
Another DE this weekend at Road Atlanta. Again, no issues what so ever with the motor or the car. Making progress as a driver but still much to learn. The car has a lot of potential and got a lot of love this weekend. Had a lot great discussions with guys about Hybrid Strokers. Great hanging out with Josh B, Brad, and Harry.
I need to get down there over the winter for a DE vacation LOL. Predicting snow up here on Friday.... if they throw salt down, my car gets parked for the year. Soooo not ready to not have my toy to play with!
Looks a ton of fun out there Shawn! I agree with Gustaf, would love to drive that track!!!
Your car sounds great and it's clear there is plenty of torque. What tyres are you on at the track?
But before i forget; i think you need to get your alternator rebuild; 12v is kind of lot, don't you agree?
I assume you mean low? The Nissan alternator always goes pretty low before kicking in charging. Never been an issue.

Looks like a great track with nice flow and huge elevation changes. I'd love to drive flat out there with my car.
Thanks Gustaf! I also would love to see your car at Road Atlanta going flat out!

Going to put my car up in a couple weeks also. Next DE is May I believe.

You can tell it has a lot of torque by the way yiu can hold a higher gear.
Amazing the torque, I was holding 4th gear on many turns in which normally you would need to down shift. The S2 tranny is a factor also but my instructor races 951's and he was in awe of the torque.
