So this was only the second pass I had ever done at an autocross event. My first pass ever I ran a 62.3, this pass on Video I clocked a 60.82, my third pass was a 58.8 and my final pass was a 56.8. Given more passes and some more experience, I have little doubt that I could have put down a 52-53. The pass in this video, I tried to keep it in first for the run which proved to be more difficult and slower than keeping it in second like I did my final pass. But anyway, thought you guys would enjoy the video. (Taken on my cell phone).

Cheers!

Looks like fun. Congrats on running the times down. I don't think I could ever figure out the cone thing!

Much easier in person to see the course. I had the same fear yesterday until I got there. You are allowed to walk the course for about an hour before the cars start running so you really get a feel for the course.

Very nice. Glad to hear you were cutting your times down each run. That looks like a good size course there.

Yes it was a very big course. It was held on the tarmac where the old B-52's were parked back in the cold war at Grissom AFB so we had plenty of room to play! If anyone is remotely near Kokomo, IN.... I would suggest coming out to final event this year at Grissom on October 14th. It costs 40 bucks if you aren't a member and it truly is a blast!
