AutoXing iS a MusT if you own a REX

DAMN That was the most fun I've ever HAD!!!!!!!!!
those slolems anit got nothing on me, just those damn hair pins, my car was understeering horribly, I checked my psi in the front and it was at 20 psi on the right and 27psi on the left, I didn't have time to fill up my right tire so I just evened out the left.

I even had to leave at 12:10 and I made 3 runs still had a kick *** time, in two weeks hopefully I can drag some friends out with a video recoder, and cameras....

This is a mUST DO

My TII understeered like nothing I've ever seen. You have to go to 45 psi on the fronts, max negative camber, everything. Plus, slow way down for the tight ones and get into 1st (yes, 1st gear) so you can hammer it early.

You autocrossed with 20 psi in your tires!!! That's crazy, I bet you were riding on your sidewalls through every corner. I run 38 psi front and rear in Falken Azenis tires. Normally I would run more pressure than that, but the sidewalls are so stiff they don't seem to need any more pressure.

Anyway, welcome to the world of autocrossing. I just autocrossed today also, and I have another one to go to next Sunday.
