Did my first autocross in 2 years

[VonDigger]

I did my first autocross in like 2 years. Man I suck:o . I used to stay within .5-1 second off the leader, this time around I was more like 7 seconds back. But I figure it this way, I'm rusty and I just have to get back into the swing of it. I also have to get used to the car as well. So this season is going to be nothing but a test and tune, r&d, research type of thing so I can get used to the car and figure my lines back out LOL.

Thanx for the support. I have to do a bunch of suspension work to the civic tho:paranoid: , that was my biggest draw back along with tires (I still have the stock sized 185/65r14's on it that have a 560 treadwear which are as hard a a rock:| ), but I should get the ball rolling soon.:yes:

A 185 tire with a 560 treadwear rating?! No wonder you were so far back. I like a 300-320 treadwear tire for daily/autoX use. Then again, my tires are 255s. I thought I was the only one here who autoX'ed with any regularity. Nice to know I'm not the only one.

what??!?!?

i auto cross every chance i get.

this is my 3rd yr. i hold 4-5th pretty well. but racing a non suspension tuned prelude is no walk in the park either.
