A rough sketch of the track I will be running. Finally a couple of my friends are going! EK Civic, RSX, Sunfire, and of course.. the usual me (celica), my brother -MRS, and Corolla

The Corolla, Sunfire, and Civic will all be in the same class (STS)
Me.. as usual.. the same class as them Cooper S

Im building a in car camera mount right now. Hopefully I will have an in car and another video from the outside.

Its going to really hot. And theres thought of running nitrogen in my tires (they stay more constant with pressure) I just have to see till then

nice! that MRS looks real nice, does it run CS?

ya im in the same boat as you right now, Ive been living off of low speed high cornering events since i got into autocross. only over the past few events have things really sped up and my inexperience is showing (though i did have last years ESP national champ beat after the 1st day of the cen-div event. (less a clipped cone). I expect the same to continue next event as I will be autocrossing at Grattan Raceway on labor day, very fast with lots of elevation changes.

heres what my schedule has been for this year, i expect (work schedule pending) next year will be more intense, including more cen-div and national events as well as the national championships in topeka... id like to go to the pro runoffs as well but i donno... i need to work a lot on the mental portion as pro events are much more intense.

so racing 14 weekends out of the summer with taking all of august off, there were a few events i would have liked to go to (peru Cen-Div championships, DRSCCA Oscoda Prostyle, MVSCC Heat of the Night night AutoX) but schedule bit me bad in august... oh well, gave me time to fix the car.
