Autocross was fun, I finished my last run as the really heavy moisture started.....

I swapped ends once too... :D

swapping ends is fun:

i made those marks, about 120 feet worth, swapped ends at about 70 MPH autocrossing.

Porsche-poor 03-13-2011 08:14 PM

nynor you do that on purpose?

nynor 03-13-2011 08:24 PM

nope. not at all. i was having a VERY fast run up to the point where things got hinky.

I got a speeding ticket after a day of swapping ends at our AX. 68 in a 55. That sucks. Flow of traffic is pretty much 70 on that freeway, even when the limit goes down - not that I knew it did.

nynor 03-13-2011 09:00 PM

it is interesting to note how many LEO's check out our AX events.

slodave 03-13-2011 09:05 PM

This was not near the event. Had Noah930 not switched places with me a little before that, he would have been nailed. I was leading most of the way home.

We have a cop in the PCA, and one of our other regulars is a cop too...


Is alarick going to pay part of the ticket? It was his fault... ;)

Morning. No, Fk Sunday.

Morning guys. I see Dave is trying to be like me (only slower)

slodave 03-14-2011 01:25 AM

Morning Rick. Naw, I just like throwing money out the window and having to be extra careful for the next 16 months.

Rick V 03-14-2011 01:30 AM

Yeah last year I got nailed twice. I was lucky, Hagerty didn't pull my driving record for the year or they would have dropped the coverage on Lanna. I got nailed for 22 over and 18 over. The 85 over they never caught me. :D

I'm having them rotated tomorrow to see if there are any dents or wobbles.
the seller assures me they're staight and true.
1500 bucks is cheap? Then I guess I made a good deal. (center caps are missing though)


Rick, you're early and good morning!

Rick V 03-14-2011 01:34 AM

Morning G, we suffered a time change this weekend, I am on time, but an hour earlier. They need to stop messing with the whole time continuum thing..........................

I've noticed this happens every time. Then you get to study for a brief second, where you just came from and what you just did wrong.

Rick V 03-14-2011 01:52 AM

Last time I had Lanna out for an autoX I had RA1's on the back and ES100's up front. That is a good way to NEVER have the back end come around. It is also a very good way to NEVER turn.

slodave 03-14-2011 01:56 AM

I think I know that... Last ax, fronts corded, RA-1's in the rear doing their job, turn to the left... Nope, straight we go...
