Yeah I agree I'll take it slow at the beginning and work my way up from there
What gears do you usually run through in the course. I was told with most solo autox you stay usually in second and third. Usually around the higher rpm depending so Im guessing 5000-6000rpms. I hope the Yokos can hold up there seeing there last days.

one thing i picked up that will make autox easier and more fun is to start running the course slowly then increase your speed each time. the first time i autox'ed i made a rear wheel drive car that weighs 2300lbs understeer. "most beginner drivers go to fast in the slow turns and to slow in the fast turns" pretty much sums it up.
It's highly unlikely that you will use third gear, especially at verona. Often you will get into second gear and thats the only gear you will use. The last event at Verona I was using first gear pretty often. I have told myself that I will take it slow on my first run so that I can learn the course. I never do.
What turbo are you running?
