im just a rookie so i could be wrong but i think you braked too late at 30 seconds and at 50 seconds you should have late apexed.
if you have more vids post em up, im already missing autox, winter sux

Right on bro, that looks like a pretty fun track... Honestly though, I don't think anybody can REALLY judge your driving from a spectator's view point.
By the way, your paintjob is bad ***.
I'm trying to think up something original for mine too.

I'll take a stab:
At most autocrosses you should stay in 2nd gear. All you got was wheel (and sounded like clutch) spin. You were on the brakes way too early on all the corners where you could have waited like 1-2 seconds longer. That means you're on the gas 1-2 seconds longer, which will help drop times.
Then after you went into the far section it was hard to tell.

Wow, nice course. CRXs are great at autoX. I can't wait for Spring to get mine on a course. I've been running my M3 which is of course fun, but the CRX is has an incredible turning radius. The thing is a go kart!

Great info!
there is an issue with my camber in that video: the gentleman who alined my car a couple days before did not tighten down my camber kit bolts so its slowly been sliding in on the passenger side. when i checked it out a couple runs later it looked between -4 and -5 degrees.
when i started i was in first gear and before i entered the first slolam i was in second and upon exiting i was in third. then i was in second around the sweeper and third again before the chicago box. i am using a cable type J1 tranny(b16 non LSD) and the clutch did not slip, but my -4ish degree wheel camber on one side caused excess tire spin. i, too, upon watching the video noticed my late late braking. that front camber really causes the wheel to lock up way too soon. thats what i was avoiding with early braking. and still a shitload of fun out there!!!
