Welcome to the world of autocross

Thanks

I had the fronts at 43 and the rears at 40. Once I got the trick to FWD and heavy understeer (dealing with it and rotating the car instead of constantly fighting it) I was able to get by pretty well. In a couple tight corners I learned to hit a good line at a good speed and rotated well, but on one sweeping corner before the slalom I never got the hang of it and just plowed like crazy because I was always too fast into it and too tight into the apex :happysad:
It was free

Put on by my college's car club.
llama: You would :rofl: I never said my car was fast. It's bone stock, the power steering gives up when stressed, has 230k miles and is best in a straight line at 75MPH
