it might be a good idea to post it anyways
both auto crosses i have done were advertised well before the event
could increase that amount of turn out :)

It's so fun to see noobs starting autocross. Only because my first time was October 2008 so I'm barely out of my training wheels. But, I did get some wickedly sticky tires last weekend.

yeah they will help a lot
my only concern with doing that is it bumps you up a class lol

Hardy souls! :bow:

Holy crap Brazdon you and Whoopee are badazzes... only about 12 people (normally at least 40 cars) attended our first event of the season because it was cold and raining about that same amount... I was not one of them :tongue::redface:

what are you guys using for tires?

Nah, you can run R-compound tires as long as you don't have the rear sway bar. One of the few times I recommend springs instead of the sway, if you're going to add ultra-sticky tires for autocrossing.

I'm in ST class so we can do sways and stuff but once you get sticky compound tires i believe it puts you up a class
i could be wrong

right now im just using BFgoodrich traction TA
