I'm in, and my friend is gonna co-drive my car... We'll be in the 128 though. Prepare for much tire squeal.

I'm interested in this. How does it work? Can I run my super slow single cam hatchback in this?

If you're not out there running you super slow single cam hatchback I'll drive all the way to Hburg to smack you, :thumbup:

And Colton, your first auto-x is free with your dues!

Registration will be open soon, keep an eye out here and on Facebook for the link to be posted.

Yes, you can definitely run your slow SOHC hatch in this. Hell, we've had:

my shitawful E30:


and Cabell's old Passat wagon (automatic):



out there. Your Honda will fit right in :thumbup:

I honestly might run my truck. I'm tried of sitting on the sidelines. I've seen trucks run before, but not lifted midsizes like mine, so I'll try not to flip it.

Unless someone has a spare car they don't mind me blowing 2nd gear out of.

Pretty sure you aren't gonna be able to run a midsize truck like that, let a lone a lifted one. People are always offering up co drives as long as you can drive stick.

Sounds good! I've never auto x'ed, but I've always wanted to.

It sits too tall. I've seen a Jeep SRT-8 once, and a lowered S-10, but they won't allow your Taco, pretty sure.

See if someone will let you co-drive.

Shit. I can drive stick, I just don't know how well I would in a competitive situation.

Rev to 2500-3k, dump clutch, get in 2nd, drive. That's all it is.

I saw a Trailblazer SS auto-x once. It was terrifying.

I autoxed a Trailblazer SS once, it was hilarious. You can autocross anything. I have certainly autoxed some terrible cars:

225k mile old Lexus SC400 with open diff and all seasons with 300+ torque.
Trailblazer SS
Mazda minivan
Mini Cooper Clubman or minivan or whatever its called.

^ weren't you promising seat time in the LS1M if someone polished your Forgelines? :evil:

I cannot make this event. :/

Still waiting on someone to polish those forgelines

I've seen a taco x-runner down at acu-4 tidewater region.

[HAULN-SS]

Might sign up - interested anyway

I'd let you drive mine, but like my grind free trans and near-death-but-still-functional clutch.

[EclipseTurbno93]

Would love to do this for once... But I dunno if I trust DSM quality enough to let me drive off afterward haha
