[quick35th]

Here are a few pictures and a video from last weekend's autox. Sorry for the poor quality for the video, best buy cant seem to fix my video camera without making it worse then how it was when I first brought it in.

Looks like a fun time. So how do you compare with the other rear wheel drive cars at those events?

Looks like you had a good time.

It sucks that my weekends have been so crazy as of late, otherwise I'd be out there.

Looking good...
Camera suggestion... Tripod and then use the zoom. But don't zoom so far you end up using digital zoom. Bring a buddy with another camera to catch you on the other side of the track.

Then find a buddy with a Mac or knows what they are doing with video software, and then you will have a nice little video.

Do you check your wheel bearings after every race. With those wheels I would. How heavy is the care now Shane?

I was turning near identical times as brand new 427 powered Z06's on Hoosiers.

Why should I check my wheels bearings?

With that offset it puts alot of strain on them. Track duty mustangs needed them quite often. It is good to check them so you dont get hurt.
If the car is very light weight then there is less force on them but its good to check them.

Probably at the end of the month after the next event I will take it to the scales and see what it weighs. It should weigh around 2800lbs loaded without me in it.

I tried the autocross for the 1st time Sat at Road Atlanta but didn't do too good. Too much torque and not enough grip on my street tires. I was all over the place but kept it on the track and only killed 2 cones. I had one of the slower times.

lmao.
