The very first autocross I ever attended was called an enduro autocross. It was back in 1976. Every run was 5 laps of the course. I had 6 runs so I was chewing up rubber like mad. My old 914 was at full USA ride height for that one. I could get the front tire to lift on many of the corners. I was very slow.
One of the guys that knew how to set up a car came over and made some suggestions. He helped me over the year with setup info and driving instructions. I had the car lowered to Euro height and finally got some better rubber. It was not long before I was faster than the 911s of the day. A brand new 1976 stock 911 was no match for a good autocross. Only when they opened up the track could they beat me.
I was FTD fairly often.
