lol gay, me and my friend were running the same car and we fucked up the numbers, so it looks like he beat me, and that I ran a shitty time. The car was all sorts of fucked up, I am no longer gonna wuss out and run someone else's car, it was just sputtering, spitting fuel, the motor mounts we found out are completely dry rotted and falling apart, and had cracks in the manifold (those are my ricer excuses for the day). But I still managed to beat my friend by 9 seconds in his own car, and he has been to 4 autocrosses.

Ricer... :lol: I'm guessing the NOS blew the manifold?

Who's the red MR2?

[JackdaMak]

It was a lot of fun... esp for my first time. Good hangin out for the long hot day and then driving my car like its never seen before. Pulling the ABS fuse made all the difference in the world. I have some pics and a really low res. cell phone video but i'll prolly just send em to Thayer to show at the meeting or somethin...

JACK HESTER 03 DODGE STRATUS R/T RED 82.923 +0 ; 81.399 +0; 80.878 +1 ; 79.747 +1...

btw the cones were both on the OUTSIDE of the turns where i had absolutely no business being and if i had actually missed the cone would have had a better time

p.s. the Mr2 is Matt "l33t MR2" = forum ID

[l33t Mr2]

thats my mr2 andy... remember when you drove it? hah

fun times i enjoyed the day and got a tan ... not aburn thanks to the dood with the VW fox and the suntain lotion.

my best time was a 76.257 +0 my rice excuse for not getting down to a 74.0 was the DAMN COURSE WAS SO CONFUSING and dangerous mad hesitation on where to go on my part and probably everyone elses.

[D_Eclipse9916]

Congrats to both of you!! Both of you did awesome, especially for your first time!

[JackdaMak]

Here's the video my friend took of me from his cell phone... i got it on YouTube! Not the best resolution but still cool to have a video.

Oh good thanks for catching my attention....

Another ricer excuse, completely blown stock suspension....BTW it still has that rear on the ground, yay for independent double wishbone...


Look at that gap!! I didnt know the car was rolling nearly that much.

Just to compare when my car was stock suspensioned...Holy crap this was a long time ago....

Found a posted video of the Salem course: (Really long and extremely confusing)

Well let's not knock the course design too much, it's just not a huge lot. And they got a 75-80 sec course out of it. The only thing I think they could have done better was rechalk the arrows when swapping out workers for the next group, that would have helped a lot!

that would have been helpful, I walked it and 6 hours later I drove the course. Instead of trying to get a good time, I was just trying to stay on the course

this was like my 20th auto x
