Looking forward to popping my Auto-X cherry finally.
Mentally I am, oh I'm going to squirt some vegetable oil on the course right before any Mustangs run:icon_rabbit:

Nice to see you there thrash, and dubbsy. and yes, the video of your car is on dan's camera. I will attempt to get ahold of it and make a little iMovie out of your's and dans and I'll upload em on here.
I ran a 51.76 w/o hitting any cones... Not too bad but I felt like the car had more. I need to pay attention to the tire pressure more, and get more consistent on where I enter/exit corners. -

i was working the grain bin station, if you goosed the gas pedal back in the paddock we all heard it loud and clear. and it seemed like anytime you gave it more than 5% throttle it was immediate wheelspin. it looked like a handful (of fun) to drive
yeah, it's a good time to drive which was my goal for the day. Next year I'll work on car control a little more.
Looking through my in-car videos.
Braking way early on a few corners - particularly that last big right hand loop.
Holy hell that tire rub sounds horrible. More I listen to it the more I think it's rear tires instead of the fronts like I thought it was. Looks like it's time to adjust the panhard a little more.
I've always been a binary throttle type of guy - it's either on or off (maybe it's the drag racer in me). Work on that and it'll keep the car a little straighter. -
the guy at the start line said this to me:
"you know how fingernails on the chalkboard is the worst sound there is? your car sounds like that, but worse"one guy said "sounds like you have a super charger in there". HA HA. 170hp of STOCK FURY (assuming that awful intake leak isn't losing me any power :))
i have a leaking intake and i think a failing HG. car goes nice for what it is though
52.8 was my fast time today.

Did you have to clear the dust off your windshield mid-run? That reminds, I need to plug my horn back in.lol
it was at that exact moment where I started kicking myself for not listening to you and finding those fuses. Least I could've done is pull the wiper arms off I guess. -
Glad everyone had fun! Hopefully we can get you guys coming to some more central-ND events next year.
Maybe by then my car won't be running like shit.
