Default SOLO Pics

Some pics from one of my last events. Car handled nicely, finishing 5th overall, and 2nd PAX.

Very cool.

Looks like you are running some serious tire up front, what is the size? Any spacers required?

Cool. Killcare is not that far for me to drive. Let me know next time you plan to run and I will try to make it.

I'm with Mimi, I love to see people use these cars as the engineers intended.

There's simply too much torsional rigidity, low-end torque, and seat-bolstering to let your car be reduced to a show-queen.

Congrats on the placement! Very respectable.

James / Mike
Next autocross event (and last one for 2011) is tomorrow at KilKare. Registration / Tech starts at 8:00, with the first car scheduled off at 10:00. You are welcome to ride along -- just need to sign the waiver and strap on a loaner helmet. We usually run two heats in the morning and two in the afternoon.

Tires in the picture are 245 Hankook Z214 C71s with 10mm spacers on the front, and 295 Hoosier R6s on the rear.
Mike
