Awesome video. I've been looking all around for Crossfire videos, ANY thing lol. Not much luck though :? I took a look at those French videos that were posted a while back which i didnt understand, althought were cool, along with the Top Gear review of the Crossfire (which itself was a bunch of b/s :evil: ) I used to be looking into an E36 M3 ('98, 4 door) til I laid my eyes on this beauty. Those M3's had a heck of a lot of videos though. Awesome ones too. I have at least 25 on my computer. If you guys find any sweet CF videos, PM me

It is a BLAST!!! I'm doing 2 point series this year. The first is the one I started this past weekend. It's a regional SCCA series... 8 races and ends the first Sunday in Dec. The seconf one is with Beachcombers Corvette club. It's 4 races.

The courses at the Corvette club events are much loser (gates have more seperation) and is much faster.

If you click on the "autocross.us" link above and go to the "Event Coverage" pull-down menu and go to Feb. )8, 2004 Pungo (BCC)... BCC = Beachcomber's Corvette Club.... There's another video from that meet and that was a Corvette club meet. I was also at the Mar. 7 event but no video for that one.

That was a loaner from the club. I have bought my own helmet. During the summer I don't want to put a helmet on my head that 20 other people have had on their sweaty heads.
