Wow, this year just wont quit. I entered the Notheast PA SCCA's solo2 event today along with Mshellhammer and Kupop from the board.
This course was perfect for Hyde's set up which is something I have never been able to say about an autoxcourse. It was not overly tight and since the course is not flat, the undulations in the surface were perfect for rotating the car around.
Changes since my last understeering mess of an autocross:
*put rear struts one setting tighter
*raised front tire pressure to 40 psi and lowered the rear to 36 psi
*rear sway bar is completely disconnecting (tabs broken).
We did 5 runs before lunch and 5 after.
It was wet this morning which I think kept alot of people away.
After the morning session I was 4th overall and 2nd in my class with a 34.1.
The other 3 drivers were at 33.7s.
After lunch everything dried out and I got very agressive with the throttle which resulted in me eating cones and taking out the finishline timing equipment
Luckily I wasntt the only ... the very next run Kupop came through the finish spinning around and took out the cones at timing as well
Anyway, I manged to control the power I was putting down and directed in the correct direction and I hit a 33.4 which was FTD (fastest time of the day for anyone)... An F-body that was killing me all day came across the run 2 cars later with a 33.2. This was the 3rd time he took FTD from me that day.
So I went out and banged out a 32.7! ... no one else hit a 32 all day.
I backed it up on the last run with a 32.9 so it was no fluke.
This was the first autocross I have ever done that I felt great about my driving, the course and the car.
Kupop took 3rd in SM2 with a 34.1 (IIRC). mshellhammer won CSP in his '87 MR2.
What an awesome day and year.
8 wins in 13 races.
