C4 Autocross action |
Subject: C4 Autocross action by shakedown067 on 2009/12/21 22:24:44 Just thought I'd share some video of my racing action this season. My first autocross in the vette was just in September. Had only run two previous autocrosses with the RevItUp series in '05 and '08. So far I'm leading my class (31 pts) over an '08 Porsche 911 (12). He's only attended the last two events though. He's getting quicker so I hope I can keep holding him off. St Pete - Sep. In the rain (worn out kumhos) Came in 3rd behind to Porsches. Brooksville - Oct My first win (only one in class, but my first top ten overall). The new Michelins hooked up nice! St Pete - Nov. Another top 10 overall (6th) and beat out the rookie Porsche driver for the class win. Brooksville - Dec. Squeaked in the top 10 with a 9th overall (second on street rubber). The porsche is coming on strong but I'm keeping him at bay. Got all new rotors and Hawk pads, but the track layout didn't test out the new brakes. The new alignment helps grip and outside tire wear. Also managed to beat out a C5 ZO6 on R-compounds (only had one clean run at 34.1). The view of the ride (during my 2600 mile round tip to San Antonio, TX). November Brooksville Event |
