Annual College Challenge Autox Sept. 29 (SATURDAY)

No need for hoo hoos starting off. Hell I'm still running street tires. Its fun beating people who are running hoo hoos on street tires. Just get a good sticky street tire and suspension mods after you get the hang of it.

I run a Corolla in H-stock with the cheapest all-seasons I could get my hands on, and Samuel Reiman runs G-stock with all seasons as well, and we actually hold our own against a lot of much faster cars. They make rib us a little for the noisy tires and slow cars, but all in all, we seem to have a lot of support as underdogs.

I think there is a lot of wisdom in driving on slick tires at least starting out. You definitely learn a little bit about moving the car around to maximize traction, being smooth on the wheel and smooth on the brakes. Then again, I can't afford more rubber, so I'm sure there are others who might disagree.
