Not hating on you or your car, but if he had beaten your time on that course (which had only one decent place to make any big speed), you don't deserve to brag about your car/skillz. We've all determined that in an autoX (and road course in many cases) it is skill and suspension which can ultimately lead to faster times. Blistering speed down a front straight means jack shit in a turn.Dave Wrote:Remember, I know a guy who owns 6 (I think, might be 5) and one of them is stupid fast (probably faster than anything in our club at the moment).
Seen it, beat him pretty easily at the richmond autocross.
Being that I can beat you in a straight line (estimate, since we've never actually raced, yet), he'd probably have you by several car lengths before he got out of first gear.
