Video from the AutoX This Weekend

Hey guys. I was at the autox yesterday with onepointone and Zach McAfee. I didn't race, but I got some footage. Here's the video: http://brianmcd.no-ip.com/Videos%20B...%2011%2003.wmv The red 85 GS is onepointone's, and the white second gen is Zach McAfee's. If anyone else can host the video please do so, because my cable modem can't take much heh. Hope you enjoy it. Please leave any feedback. Keep in mind this is only like the 3rd or 4th video I've ever made heh.

Hey. The next autox here is June 22nd at Cloverleaf Mall. Here's the schedule: http://www.vmsc.org/schedule.html . Maybe after the event we can all go for a drive somewhere :o. I think I might be driving that event, that'll be my first time driving in an autox. Hope to see you there.

I'm over in Chesapeake, and If I have my suspension and motor in by then (my fingers are crossed), I will definitely be there. If not I will be at the July one. I'll soon have the tokico shocks, eibach springs, poly bushings, and sumitomo tires on. Hopefully I will have a rebuilt engine w/ rb exhaust by the end of june!

lol... if we're going for a drive afterwards, I'll run my Toyo RA-1s, I don't mind if I chew those up... If we aren't going for a drive, I'll bring my Kuhmos with me... I can't go for a "spirited" drive with four extra wheels in my car...

haha, the way they had it set up is since it was mother's day, and there wasnt a big turnout, they did 2 heats instead of 4, but each heat got 2 goes = everyone got 8 runs instead of 4. the video is on the second time around, and zach had his shitty street tires on, he was running hoosiers earlier running low 33's, my best time was a low 37, and zach's best time in my car was a 35. like you said, its all driver. he said hes been racing since age 13, and autoxing for 3 years. this is my first year so i still have a way to go before im as good as him. it was fun though.

What times were the other cool cars running?

No offense, but your soundtrack is played out.

Heh, yeah, I still like that song though . There was a fast mr-2 there, not sure what he was running though. There was an old black porsche that ran a 30.xx I think? Not positive. Thanks for the feedback nimrod.
