Default Portland ORPCA event on 5/10/2009
Lots of fast drivers at this event.

Kudos to josh18_2k for 7th fastest time at 39.259.

Josh fell from 3rd at the last event.

I didn't manage a top 10 at this one, coming in 17th with a 41.088.

Is is just me, or were there more fast drivers at this event than the last one?

Here's a link to some PCA videos from the event: http://www.oregonpca.org/events/auto...ax2/ax2-media/

Here a couple videos I took with the new GoPro Here Wide Angle camera:

Looks like I needs to shift to 1st in 1 or maybe 2 places to get out of the two tightest corners. Should have tried it and didn't.

At the last event using 1st cut nearly 1 second off my time in a tight corner.

I would prefer a new LSD with a 4.77 gear set, but shifting to 1st is quite a bit cheaper.

 

nice. I need to get out to one of those. Do you need inspection for the autoX?

 

Yes. Mostly it's to make sure of just a few things

* no bad wheel bearings ( SCCA checks this , PCA does not)
* battery is securely mounted.
* you have an approved helmet
