So shocks will be in the works over the off-season? Still leaning towards motons?

 

I can't afford any shocks. When I can, I will go quality. Not doing much over the winter with my car.

 

The Mercedes autoX was super fun yesterday. The entire run was in 2nd at redline or in 3rd gear (fast course). FTD was in the 62ish range. It was fun watching people spinning around at 65 mph for 50+ feet (I guess a lot of autxers are not used to 3rd gear speeds with lots of pavement camber).

 

Great course. One of the best of the year, a lot of speed like a mini race track, perfect for test drive our BMW 325 i.

 

Doesn't look like I will have a chance to get the new suspension on for Saturday, but I plan to run in BSP trim at Hershey anyway. Sunday looks very wet....will probably stay home (didn't register yet for Sunday).

 

Corrected Mercedes AutoX results are up:

Moton Club Sports up for sale in the marketplace.....

Motons.

 

I've never done a wet Autocross before. Do you guys think it's better to use Starspecs or all-seasons for a wet course? I'm thinking all-seasons

 

BMW has canceled their event. I think it was probably a good decision. The weather will be worse down in Waldord (and start earlier) than it will in Hershey (and Bowie to a lesser extent).

Noel, if you and Franklin come up to Hershey, you would run 1st. Street Prepared/B-stock runs 1st thing and works second. It looks dry in Hershey until early afternoon.

Just a thought.

 

Anyone venture to CDC....sounds like the vast majority of those registered didn't show. We got lucky, it stayed dry for us in Hershey.
