Autocrossing at Bank Atlantic center in the FD

As promised .. here ya go I was surprised at how much a pain it was to autox with nonsequential. I tried to leave it in first the first couple of runs but i was constantly hitting 8500-9200, and if i shifted to second (which i did for the last few runs) I would be at around 3000 and of course nonsequential makes minimal power until 4000ish. So it was interesting learning the car around the track. I'll be back out there with swaybars and better tires next time. And also with the autocross/roadracing FC.

I hope the non-sequential isnt that bad with all the breathing mods and full exhaust. I just did it recently but the Auto-X season hasnt started out here yet so I'm not sure what to expect.

thats why i stopped doing auto-X, i couldnt stand the low rpm 2nd gear thing, i have an 88t2 with the twin scroll flapper and actuator removed so mine lags just a bit in lower rpm, and i hate jamming it in first gear past when going around the course. oh ya, your car sounds awesome!

nice. for autox, I usually just end up leaving it in second, unless there is a really slow turn or something. whenever its in 1st i end up spinning the wheels too much
