    Going to my first Auto Cross on Sunday

    I might go just to watch, but I might run the BD. I'll see if I can get some pics. They have a first time class so all of my mods will not put me into a class running against crazy cars.

    We'll see maybe I'll run it

    Nothing with going and watching the event if its your 1st time. It'll give you a heads up of what's going on, so next time if you do happen to participate..you know whats up.

    If you go there and plan on not racing, bring a helmet and try to get some rides, it will give you a feel for spotting cones and driving the course. Most people are happy to take passengers, as long as they are not going for some record time.

    Seriously, go race. Whats your reason not to, youre going to spend $45? It's such a blast you'll be hooked. Besides, its what cars were meant for.

    OK i didn't do as bad as I thought and it was fun as hell

    I kept up with a Legacy that had a WRX swap with stock suspension. I guess my suspension can keep up with his power ^_^

    Here is the link for the pics that the Autocross photographer took

    http://www.pbase.com/sjmarcy/fcscc6_080308_stratfordn

    My pics I will be uploading soon to my photobucket

    My favorite pic was DSC_2896_DxO2.jpg
    I wonder why
