Cool video Mike. Do you have video of your quickest run. I would like to see that compared to run #1.

Me too. Unfortunately, a friend loaned us the camera and we only got the first, third and the last few turns of one other run but none of my PAX runs. The difference you'd have seen, had we recorded the 50.4 second run, was how I was finally able to match the rear-end swings to the respective gates (takes well-timed left-foot-braking but sure is fun when it all meshes) along with getting the car into first gear prior to the hairpin and then turning toward that pivot pylon before dabbing the handbrake. Once the tail end broke loose I was back on the power and scooted right out of that off-camber hairpin. But out of eight runs I only nailed the hairpin once and was fortunate to not tip another cone before the finish lights.

Those "bat-turns," by the way, are LOTs more predictable/repeatable on gravel. What I needed Saturday was for it to rain!

Hey Mike and Marcus, you guy's rawk!! Way to go this past weekend, love the video and the additional pics.

Mike, SB's suspension is obviously not set-up for autocrossing.. Looks like you had some fun anyway, and got to throw the pod around some tarmac for a change...

Thanks again for posting your info guys, nice to see some dubs out on the track.
