auto-x today.... my first time - long post and BWW
the turnout was pretty big, and they didn't organize it very well so we only did 2 out of 4 heats...
i was in the Street touring (STS) class bc i have upgraded rotors. thats all i have, but since it was my first time, i think i did very well. first run was 47 sec, and average times were between 46-50, then there were the outliers like the 38 second m3 and 42 second turbo rabbit(my friend's)... at the end, it was lots of fun, started raining after i got my first run over with so my other runs were slower, but they had pulled the clock away since it was a giant lit up sign, and it was raining...
here's a basic list of who was there
- 2001 dodge viper (my friend's)
- 2 m3s
- 8 honda s2000s
- bmw z3
- 3 supras
- 2 scion tc's
- 6 mazda miatas
- 3 corvettes (2 z06's)
- 3 toyota mr2s (old ones)
- 4 camaros (1 SS and 3 z28s)
- 67 austin healy (friend's)
- 2 '84 vw rabbit race cars (friend's)
- 4 mini coopers (one supercharged)
- supercharged r32 (friend's)
- turbo rx7 (friend's)
- a few gti's
- a few civics and preludes and integras
- 3 lexus is300s
- 2 acura rsx type-s
- tt 300zx
- 1 audi .... mine
and some more random cars i prob forgot
people seemed to be impressed with my car(maybe since it was the only audi) and everyone kept asking if i had quattro =(. some kids i heard sayin "oh that audi is phat" haha. i squealed the tires hardly any, and only hit one cone the hole time (it was my first run in the rain and i forgot to use the wipers, bad idea) so i had lots of fun, and im going to the next one thats about 45 minutes from me, its gonna happen in 1 month
ok heres some pics, mostly of me

not sure, all the stock and street touring went mixed,
so i wasnt right with my group... one of them got a 50 i saw, i missed what the other preludes did. i emailed the organizer of the setup, to see if i could get a copy of the results... at least for my class
by the end, i was so tired of being there that i left early. they didnt really plan it too well so they started more than an hour late, and it was taking forever to do each heat. i was so hungry and bored by the end of second heat, taht i left right before the 3rd laps of 2nd heat.... now im trying to get full results...

nah, no one knew it was my first time unless they asked... but i did well i think
and i looked cool, at least thats what others said (my friend's who watched reported back to me the crowd's opinions, haha)
one time, i hit a turn really fast and squealed some tires, but pulled out nice... apparently crowd liked that too
