Another first time autocross

Well, finally got around to making an autocross, and it was definitely fun

. AND, I won my class

(only one in novice, but nobody needs to know that haha). Anyone know how the novice/index thing works out? My best time was a 51.144 but my total was listed as a 43.01. Any ideas?

Oh, and for the guys who do this regularly - thanks for being friendly to first time guys like me and even giving rides. Good times

Its called PAX time. Depending on your class they multiply your raw time by a certain # that is supposedly what you would run if you were in an A modified (I think, might be A prepared) car. Its basically just a big equalizer so you can see where you stack up against other drivers in different classes.

Here is a good write-up.

So if your class in F Stock your Pax time will be:
Raw time (actual time) x 0.815 (FS Pax Index) = Pax time

scoob I believe it is A-mods that set the bar.
