Default First auto-x in #226 and #442........

My first auto-x in the R this past sunday. Chris and I had a pretty good time. A total of 5 runs each. I was pleased with my runs, I could see progression each time. Stock suspension is plenty for me right now, I was impressed.
We went out just looking to have fun, but I did end up with the quicker time.... and I was on my all season radials
I cant wait to hit a real track now

And yes, my fender doesnt match up.... non-oem fender

I've never autocrossed, but I'm really looking to get in to it... Whenever I see pictures it looks like just a clustefuck of cones. Are the tracks laid out well and it makes sense when you're driving it, or is it kind of like a olympic skiing event where you just go around the cones?

The layout of each event is different. Sometimes the course is set for speed, while other times it is more technical. All driver should walk the course to get a feel of its layout. The object of the game is: Go through the course as fast as you can without knocking over any cones. "So many cones. So little time."

Yep #442 is Ralph's old car, bought it from him a little over a month ago. First autocross in the R and even though Justin was faster than me I had a lot of fun

I liked this picture of #442 better



Post autocross picture of both R's:
