About 2 weeks ago I attended a local autox with Chris, Bob#497, ThePunk, GSRgrrl, Geo Metro, YodaIsGod and a couple of other H-T members, very small course where I kept it in 2nd gear, Bob was doing the 2-1 shift that I still can't manage correctly...my peak hold monitor on the PowerFC was telling me that I was topping out at 84kph(52mph), short course, fairly technical, total lap time of 20-25, a total of 5 seconds seperated the 62 driver field...very wide variety of cars...here are the 2 picks that I have(really on 1)...just thought that I'd share it with everyone...oh and that's GSRgrrl(ThePunk's girlfriend and I think that she's hooked on autocrossing now) in the passenger's side.

I agree... Here is mine.

 

tat's a weird autox course. what's with the wall-o-cones???

 

Nice where was the AutoX at?

 

Hey Austin!! That was a LOT of fun that day. I'm definietly regretting I didn't run my car, but maybe next time around I'll have some nice bfg's like ThePunk's on my car. I loved riding with you and ThePunk...of course my favorite moment was when you got your best time yet, and did the *YES!!! Pump arm jesture* lol

 

Petaluma fairgrounds parking lot...Hopefully we can get the Sonoma County Airport back again....

 

It was in Petaluma at the fairgrounds, about 40 minutes north of SF...they have about 6 per year, and there are some damn good drivers out there...hopefully in the next year or so we will be able to reaquire the use of the Sonoma County Airport...which would allow us much more room, and a 1/4 mile straight

It was an ESCA event. Empire Sports Car Association. A local group here in Santa Rosa formed in the 70's. We will have a wep page up soon (I hope)

And here is my contribution!

 

I see that little puff of smoke...btw ESCA was established on August 3, 1963, I think that Frank has been around since then.

 

Nice pic Austin!!

 

Hey Austin, do you like the Comptech filter? I tried it and the car felt weak so i went back to my AEM.
