AWESOME course at FedEx field. Here's video of me trying to better my time - carried too much speed in the last offset gates.

 

Great day with the 944/LSX. Running with significantly lower air pressures on the drag radials - I think it's working. Video of my fastest time of the day (on a rerun).

 

This past Saturday at a small local lot:

 

PCA-OCR
5-20-2012
El Toro, Irvine, CA

 

First round of the Chicago Region PCA.... BIG lot but pretty rough surface. Still made for a fun course.

Took 5th overall out of ~40 cars.

 

 

Here's two videos from Sweden done last friday...

This one ends early since I smacked the camera into a cone and then drove over the camera with the right side rear wheel. (did think I would be THAT close to the cones!)

 

Timed run at an event at the "Q". And, don't worry, the slalom section was a "two part" element where you could choose which way to enter at the beginning and the middle. So, no I didn't miss a cone The video is pretty bouncy so don't watch full screen unless you want a headache!

Nice footwork - love that camera angle.

Here is my quickest of the day.

Metro NY PCA - 5/20/12
Nassau Coliseum

Very fast and tricky course...

my best run of the day 52.293 (FTD 48.200 GT3 on Hoosiers)


some cone hunting...


Different camera angle on a 52.298

 

From yesterday, my best scratch, but they said I hit a cone, that I can't tell, or see. 3rd in class, beaten by a very well driven Boxter.



Link with GPS data, I have no idea how to embed this.

Anyone know how to get this to work?

 

While not strictly autocross, I did my first time trial yesterday at NCCAR; they coned out an autocross segment in the middle of the straight to keep speeds "limited" to just over 100mph. Lots of fun! I ended up doing very well (6th overall), despite being at a disadvantage with scoring entirely by raw time and me just driving a street tire Boxster S. Next time, I'm bringing r-comps!


My fastest run @106.0:

Same run w/telemetry:

 

Rough day at FedEx field. Partake in my shame as I take out some cones and go off-course (again). Got much needed seat time though.

 

It was definitely an interesting course yesterday... You REALLY had to look ahead, and read the course to get a good time...

 

Fell asleep on the cone that I killed. From there it was downhill. Had fun nonetheless. Signed up for the events on the 23rd and 24th - you going to be there?
