Autocross was in Boise Idaho. PAX results. First time back autocrossing in 5 years, first time with the new car, and on stock tires.
X74 isn't race gear, but I want to stay in stock class. If it had been offered as an option on US models, I could get it and stay in stock. (Also, by race gear I mean autocross, not real racing) Once I start doing mods, it never ends. I had some KW 2-way adjustables for my STi, along with a never-ending stream of stiffer replacement parts, race seats, etc. Just not where I want to go right now. Honestly if I'm going to start doing that I should have bought a GT3. Not to mention that I could barely afford the car I have -- can't buy a GT3 or lots of mods for my current car. I also don't wrench the car myself.

Just need to pop the top and..........start cleaning, waxing, conditioning, fueling, balancing, vac, dust, update 6 changer, store top, air check, update mod list, clean garage, buy some cool tools, change oil........Ok, maybe after a quick tank of fuel.
Here's to all you guys who have saved my rear so many times with your wealth of knowledge!

daam Sean, she's looking sweet enough to drive right now!!
Thanks for the pics... in the one were its in the garage it looks like you have quite a bit of Neg rear camber, is that just reflection or are you tipping em a tad more than stock
nice wheels (surely not for everyone, but really nice!)

I agree on the camber tilt. She is going to RAC/RUF next week for her spring Dr. appt. I was debating springs to lower but it will be hard to drive the school bus over the giant speed bumps at the kid's school. My 15 year old (with permit in hand) does not like the wheels either and we are in the process of moving to black w/yellow stripe.
We also just sourced a factory aero kit with bumper, side skirts and rear add on's. We will debate a wing later.

Poor quality Blackberry pic, will shoot some better ones when I get the car back from the shop. She's getting an IMS upgrade, new RMS, coil packs, spark plugs, clutch switch...etc .
