And at the auto-x i was in i pulled the fastest time of the day.. (it was my 1st auto-x too )

So, i don't know about the 70/30 comment.. I think the car did it, not me..

Cool, I'm glad you got the car out there!

Of course since you got FTD at your first auto-x there must not be much competition...

Yeah, on that day competition was mild..

There was a supercharged miata, MR2 Spider, some turbo porche, .. Um... Alot of DSMs and WRXs.. alot of modded WRXs..

Actually the closest cars to me was a b18 CRX and a h22 prelude..

The CRX i understood why it was close, but was very suprised by the prelude. the driver of that car is VERY good though. but i don't think he had the car to back it up.

In no way am i saying i am a great driver.. that would be VERY foolish.. but i was definatly happy with the outcome..

There is another Auto-X this weekend, and it should have some TUFF competition.. (3rd gen RX-7, ZO6 Vette, C5 Vettes, and more)

So i should get a good beating this weekend i think.

Well any result aside, I think it is awesome that your out there with a new car like that instead of just saying how great it is on the internet.

Lots of guys on this forum talk about "mods" then the only thing they do is cruise the mall.

Get R compound rubber for that thing if you really want to go fast
