just get on 13th ave and drive west, and keep going west til you see cars flying around in a parking lot!

but really 13th ave. takes you to the fair ground if you go all the way west

I try to avoid "bizzaro fargo" (13th ave west of 25th street.. welcome to strip mall event horizon) as much as possible, but obviously that can be difficult given the way the town is growing.
I was surprised at the turnout today. I was also surprised that my raw time was as high as it was.

It was a blast except for the sunburn I got, LOL. I did awsome for my first time.6th place for raw times. If my $1 run at the end would have counted it would have bumped my up to 4th.
Can anyone explain how the PAX thing works? Not sure
Your 240 sounded great. It's a KA turbo, right? How much boost? Any other mods? You were very fast IIRC

PAX is a way to compare drivers running in different classes. It modifies your raw time by published/ageed upon factor.. kind of like correction factors on a dyno
It looks like AM (A-Modified) is the index of 1.00, and based on how cars in different classes post raw times at national events, they compute a correction factor for each class.For the PAX results to be meaingful your car has to be classed correctly. I didn't bother classifying my car since based on the few trivial mods I've done (flywheel, larger rear brakes), it would have been classed stupidly, and because honestly, I'm not competitive at autocross.

Ya, I asked what i should put for a class and he told me just to put NOC, which IIRC from looking at the stats didnt get adjusted, I am pretty sure I would be put in Super modified or something like that cause i have a turbo on a non OEM turbo car.
Yes, its a turbo KA, I was at around 10psi for the auto-x. Its got way to much stuff done to start listing. I think I did really good for being a NOOB
