NNJR SCCA Autocross #4 (5/10/08) - May 12, 2008

I finally made it out to my first SCCA event of the season. I've had to miss some of these because of school and my car not being competitive with the rules. Since I don't have coilovers or wheels to put the RT615s on, the car won't be competitive in STS. But with my current modifications, it's not legal in stock class. I went to the event anyway to get some practice.

The tires were toast from the Club Loose drifting event that was held last week, which made it pretty difficult to control the car and put in fast times. I ended up using the event as a drifting practice considering there was no way I was going to beat the top cars in the class with my current setup.

Here are some pictures I took during the event.

One of the participants compiled a photo album of the event. Here are the pictures he took of my car on the course. His full album can be found here.
