Default Video of My V at Corvette Club Auto-X 8-29-09

Here is a run at the auto X I want to this weekend. Not my best run of the day by far, but my camera died (actually broke) halfway though the day. It was a really neat fast course since it was set up for Vettes My best time was a 55.6 which beat MANY of the Vettes and all the metal cars there (except for this damn fast Evo):

Was that Grissom with the FWR?

What class are you running in with all of your mods?

Yeah, what max g's do you pull on an auto-x course?

Grissom with the Indy Region/Fort Wayne Corvette Club, I'll be running again with them in September. There is no class when I run with them because "metal" cars are just exhibitions. I don't remember the G's but I'll take a pic today and post it here.

I don't know what you're using to get the video, but that audio's gotta go! If it's just a point-and-shoot camera, try a piece of tape over the mic hole.

Interesting course layout, and smooth driving.

Go to www.autocross.com , pull down the menu at the top of the page and select Club List. There's a pretty comprehensive listing by state, just click on the map.
