I finally did it. I attended an all day Autox SCCA solo school today. Tons of seat time, it was an absolute blast! I loved it an cannot wait to do it again. A new GTO and myself were the only traditional RWD cars. He and I ran about the same times. The EVOs and WRX STIs were fast.
Car: It was cold, pouring rain so traction was tough. I had my shocks too tight which did not help. The new suspension handled very well, but on the tight turns it wanted to understeer. I think we some attention to what's going on, I can dial the handling in.
Driver: I did well in the offsets and slalom. In the slalom, I had smooth transitions and drove the car with the throttle. I was finally getting the hang of the decreasing radius turns. However, put all together and timed, I absolutely overdrove the car. In my quest for a better time, I made it worse. I also sucked at looking down course to plan ahead.
On my very last run, I crossed the finish line sideways! Nothing like driving on the brink in the rain! Anyone who loves car HAS to try it! :rock: I will post pics soon.
